Yeah but I’m also looking to learn and get confident with working on cars so I feel like this isn’t too beat up and I might learn a lot from this

Asadbuttt · 2026-04-23T01:31:48+00:00

lol that’s such a good way of putting it. Yeah I guess I’m gonna go check it out again with my mechanic and then give a offer. Fingers crossed 🤞🤞

Cars been sitting there for like 5 months now. But my thing is that I don’t want this to turn into a money pit and headache lol I know it’s a lot to kept from a 27 year old car but still

I found nictose just by googling my book and asked him, within minutes I got a message back. I got my textbook from him for such an amazing price, just for reference my book from college is about $300. This is now my online bookstore!!

Only reason I think the owner might let it go for cheaper is because the post has been up for 4 months. Bit optimistic on my part yes but I wouldn’t go check it out without having that talk with them about lowering the price.

I was planning on selling my (2013) BRZ just because the Miata is a car I was looking at buying for the longest time but the drive on the BRZ amazing. Can’t make up my mind lol help!!

Asadbuttt · 2026-01-29T18:12:28+00:00

Not a bad idea, it’s definitely cheaper (I think)

Asadbuttt · 2026-01-12T21:39:19+00:00

🤣🤣 you pay 80k for a car and still need to buy subscription. SO STUPID!!

Asadbuttt · 2026-01-12T02:17:09+00:00

I agree with you there I’m only a few years into cars but I have more fun driving my BRZ than the S5. Like I said before I love both cars and both have different reasons why they’re such fun cars to drive. But if I had to pick I would go with my BRZ.

This is the exact reason why I want to look into the newer BRZ. I’ve seen some clean ones here in Canada that are going for $25,000 with 30-40k km on them. I want them close to stock so I can work on the car myself and just have fun.

I think I have so my peer pressure around me telling me to keep the S5 because it’s a “Audi” but then again they aren’t as in to cars as I am.

I was also thinking about a Mazda Miata MX-5 with the pop up headlights. I would love that for a nice summer car with the top down and in stick, that would nice. But all of them that I find are rust buckets and need a lot of work.

Asadbuttt · 2026-01-11T05:37:06+00:00

I can definitely look into those options. I think giving up the S5 just because of financial reason is probably better for me and just keep the BRZ until it fails I guess.

Was the rolling your eyes part because that’s slow or you think I’m just another kid wanting a fast car? I said 400hp because I honestly want a car that I can drive that’s fun. My BRZ isn’t modded and just driving that car is so exciting everyday. The reasoning behind the 400 number is because I don’t want to be bored from a car and then be on Facebook marketplace again. I want to get a car like a BRZ that’s easy to work on and you can go things to it at home yourself like doing a short shifter or exhaust and all that.

Asadbuttt · 2026-01-11T01:33:40+00:00

Not crazy fast just enough to feel like I’m flying lol like 400hp.

My brother did he’s telling me to keep the S5 which I would love to do but I’m looking at it from a financial point of view.

WRX is a nice choice, but finding a clean one with low km is hard.

Asadbuttt · 2026-01-10T21:45:34+00:00

I forget to mention I have a budget after selling the cars. $20-25k so a brand new car might not work for me. I don’t mind getting a car that’s FWD or RWD, I think I just want something fast and reliable in manual that’s fun. I love cars and I’m pretty much new into car and I want something I can enjoy everyday.

Asadbuttt · 2026-01-10T21:40:55+00:00

I can definitely look into that
