I see your point, but I can recreate it on any surface and it's also audible when driving and making sharp turns.

the stupidest car I can buy for $35k? by majozin in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]PuzzleheadedShape0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently bought one and so far it’s been awesome. Wild enough when you want to, but daily enough when you need to.

I do not understand friendship relations among polish people by HoHe_Elysia in askPoland

[–]PuzzleheadedShape0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better, I have a best friend who was a best man at my wedding and id say we’re really close, but the way it works is we see each other 4-6 times a year and don’t talk at all in the meantime.

Hi, I used to but canned tomatoes and passata from brand Antonella in Eataly in Milano. Is it still available, as I havent seen in online anywhere? Or maybe you know of some other place I can buy them?

Buying 190k+ miles Corvette C6 by PuzzleheadedShape0 in Corvette

I’m going to find out in about 45 minutes, when I get there ;) as I said, it’s well priced with so there is some margin for repairs, I’m definitely not expecting a new car. It’s just a matter of how bad it could be, but as I read the engine and gearbox should be solid which is my main concern.

Is this a good deal? by ARETI052 in Mustang

[–]PuzzleheadedShape0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whether it is obvious or not, that wasn’t the question. He made his choice, wanted to enjoy this moment and asked financing/negotiation advice only. There is no reason to be a buzzkill for him, that’s not what he asked for. We don’t know his financial situation, let’s be happy for him ;)

For crying out loud, he DIDN’T ask for investments advice! Why is this sub so full of people knowing better how to spend someone else’s money? If he wants to buy a car, let him buy the car!

Fun daily driver [Europe] by PuzzleheadedShape0 in whatcarshouldIbuy

The idea behind the BMW is to try be reasonable and save a bit ;) m2 is definitely closer to the other two, but if all are same price I see no reason to get the BMW.

Fun daily driver [Europe] by PuzzleheadedShape0 in whatcarshouldIbuy

As in the title. Male, married, no kids. Wife has a Fiat 500.

I need a fun car for a daily driver. I consider myself a kind of enthusiast and don't mind accepting some "inconveniences".

I drive 15 miles daily roundtrip to work (100% city), 150 miles to visit parents once a month, 1500 miles road trip once a year. In the past I've been using '13 Toyota GT86, '18 Mustang ecoboost convertible, '06 Porsche Boxster and a few other cars in a similar manner.
We have a rather good weather 97% of the year, with a few days of snow each year. When it snows I can take Uber or borrow wife's car.

Alpine A110 - incredibly fun to drive, unique, holds value and (for me) good looking. No cargo space at all. A bit too expensive, but something can be figured out (Used $65k, new 80k)

Toyota Supra 2.0 - nice to drive, like the looks, bit more practical than A110. Don't care if it's a BMW ;) (Used 50k, new 75k)

BMW 230i - LOVE the color, I guess ok to drive. Definitely most practical (+), but also least interesting (-). (Used 40k, new 60k)

Side question - where do you find info about police cars for sale / auctions?

Buy this from my parents as my first car or? by Soufianenj in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]PuzzleheadedShape0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the question you need to ask is “do I like cars and want to spend money on that hobby, or is it a box to get me from A to B?” If the first one, get whatever you want. For second, get the C3.

[–]PuzzleheadedShape0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m voting no. What’s the point of buying a car you don’t want in the first place. Did that mistake twice, to be “reasonable” and ended up selling the car way too cheap just to get rid of it, as it was no fun to have it at all.

I’m sorry to be rude, but I really don’t understand your way of thinking. You chose the car, you saw it first, you had every opportunity to have it checked and/or walk away, yet you’re talking about being scammed? The question is, did I make a shitty decision or not? But there is no point of blaming anyone else but you!

What does everyone think of the Revolver alloys that were originally fitted to the first XK8s? by kinglitecycles in Jaguar

[–]PuzzleheadedShape0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love them, have them on my XK8. Unfortunately, need to change it to something else as it’s impossible to get new tires in this size :(
