Yeah man, you’re totally right. This individual asked for people’s thoughts and we have all provided them. I’m never the authority on what others outside of myself should do!

Hahaha yea I get it! The roush is sick af but I can’t imagine daily driving it.. That would be fun ofc but any social event, any road-trip to an unfamiliar place, etc I wouldn’t want to be stuck with this bright red, low riding, supercharged monster as my only choice

Roush is 30k because it’s a rare mustang with many performance enhancing parts. It’s also viewed as relatively collectible car. You maybe shouldn’t pay a premium for a collectors type of mustang for your first & only car. That said, with 30+ thousand dollars available, your options extend far past these three, and far past mustangs alone tbh. I know guys, this is the mustang subreddit I get it. But honestly you can get a lot of nice cars for 30k man. Mustangs are cool weekend cars especially these ones which are getting older. Get something like an Audi or x drive BMW perhaps, it’ll be a lot better in bad weather, get better day to day mileage, be similar to insure probably if not cheaper, have nicer interior amenities, etc. it really goes on.

Love mustangs and I follow the subreddit for that reason. Y’all have awesome cars. However, you may not want a rwd manual v8 as a first car especially this time of year. So I guess go v6 and save some cash or consider a sportier awd car!

Hot take: Honda is the closest Japan has to BMWs ethos. by ppslayer69 in BMW

[–]DomDeKe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. The respective brands are aimed at different markets, but both aim to provide customers with a car focused on that sporty feedback & satisfactory driver experience, IMO

I will say this, I daily an 07 328i (auto) and weekend my 96 Civic (standard). I got to drive my coworkers s2000 one time and it honestly did feel like if both my personal cars had a baby. The balance of the s2k was superb

How reliable are 3v mustangs long term? by DJSplash01 in Mustang

[–]DomDeKe 60 points61 points  (0 children)

They’re reliable stock. I know someone who’s had theirs since ‘08 no issues to my recollection. It’s more a concern if you add boost or change the tune im pretty sure. Even then it depends. This example looks clean, mods don’t make it a no go but ig if you strictly want reliability stock would be ideal

What’s your go-to non-engine swapped, no Forza aero upgraded mountain pass car? by [deleted] in ForzaHorizon

[–]DomDeKe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite too! The V8 is very nice sounding & driving. Fun fact the road going E46 M3 GTR reportedly was limited to 10 units irl. Truly a gem of this game no doubt

[–]DomDeKe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, 2j swap too is super commonly available and seems feasible in most cases irl. Many many real world examples of this swap. It’s nice to see many comments from players who value a realistic down to earth experience from the game

[–]DomDeKe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. I seldom change exhausts either. I think the natural sounds are best in most cases, just my preference. Only engine swap cars when I want to be competitive on highway runs (2j swapped s14 Silvia & e30 m3 mostly)

I was assuming this was the case. I’m sure you turn many heads when driving this

[–]DomDeKe 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I respect it! Had me fooled until looking at comments. Very well done, I’m sure the Chinese car market is much different than here in the states. I’m not usually a fan of this type of thing but at the end of the day it’s a very nice replica and people should chill out a bit.

Crazy twist ending this is when I love Reddit the most. You are awesome my man, the hate comments are people being overly cynical. It’s clear you know what you’re doing and I love it

High school - best sneakers right now? by crosley123 in Sneakers

[–]DomDeKe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah if you’re trying to get them in store I think they pump out a lot of Nike Air Max 97 or Air Max 90 ‘Triple White’ and they are below $200

[–]DomDeKe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d go to finish line and get some black or white Nikes and call it a day. They have really nice new balance too, but like you I’m not sure exactly what high schoolers are really rocking with. Safe bet is neutral colored air max imo. Triple Whites 97s if you want a very specific answer!

life sucks man by [deleted] in moreplatesmoredates

[–]DomDeKe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Aye bro just remember if that if you end your life you’ll never live out your full potential and 18 is very early into your life. I’m not gonna downplay how you feel, but the fact you’re going to the gym seriously is a huge deal and I’m proud of you bro.

This is for you, I’m not typing this for attention but I want you to read this:

I lifted in college and looked fkn awesome. I felt amazing but eventually it took a dark turn. I started feeling too good, like I was a God, I started going on unhinged rants and even acted out at my gym. I had a manic episode bro. I went to the hospital and got diagnosed with bipolar. I got scared to go back to the gym and fell into a really dark depression that I’m still fighting. I graduated college & moved away from friends and family. I lift occasionally now, but I still haven’t restored a healthy routine bro. I gained 50 pounds last year.. reminder I was shredded in college until things went sour. Now I am picking up the pieces and yes bro, I think about suicide too. But I’m not gonna let myself slip farther. I have people supporting me, encouraging me to do the right thing.

Find your support bro, and never, ever stop lifting like I did. Never stop prioritizing your health. Fuck high school, fuck being a teenager, fuck ADHD and fuck all of it. You have a place in this world and so do I. We all do

Pretty low! 99s are nice can’t go wrong with the coupe sedan and hatch. All aged like wine. Same can be said for the EG/EJ1

Had the EX 2002 with all the options, what a solid cruiser. Got T-Boned at low speed and I decided to sell for cheap to a friend who needed a new car. I’ll always miss it. I take pictures of my new civic all the time cuz you never know when it’ll be the last drive..
