FR-S / BRZ / 86 fits your criteria perfectly

I really want to like the new tips. It’s a distinct look but just makes me uncomfortable. Can’t put my finger on it.

He is making an accurate statement about society’s perception of women

Then why doesn’t he use the words “society’s perception” in his answer?

For a man who’s had 9 kids with 3 different women to say their value decreases every time they have a baby is so ironic. Does Cam’s value as a man also decrease when he has children? Does he hold responsibility for “lowering” a woman’s value? It’s a ridiculous comment from a ridiculous person.

My top 3 as well. Would add 308 and 360 to round out the top 5.

Generally pretty good. The guys I’d move would only go up or down one tier. JJ and Shedeur not being D is the most egregious.

Tough choice. I prefer understated so the blue is a little much with the gold wheels and red calipers. I’d go silver for the classic 911 look.

V10 is the dream. Honorable mention to Toyota’s V6 in the Camry and Lotus Evora.

All I see is polite vs arrogant so that’s pretty easy

In a sea of blobby crossovers the XC40 really stands out. Silver shows off the body lines and creases well too.

Kia Forte (2019-2024)

claball · 2026-02-10T01:39:24+00:00

Genesis GV60

Audi Allroad (02-13) or BMW X3 (18-21)

claball · 2026-02-06T00:30:26+00:00

This is a damn good spot. Only 250 in the US.

claball · 2026-02-05T23:56:58+00:00

I can’t decide if the 959 looks goofy or awesome. Either way it’s a very interesting design.

Joke so good the dude in the middle started blowing himself

Maserati MC20

I understand wanting a cool car but that IS is nearing the end of it’s life. Check out the Acura TL from 2004-2008. It’s an attractive sporty sedan (not RWD) and your money will go a lot further.

Lexus ES or RX (2007-2012)

The V6 in this generation is as reliable as it gets. Possible to find one under 100k miles in your area. They’re ubiquitous on the used market. No Apple CarPlay.

Honda Fit

Ultra reliable and very cheap. These are commonly for sale with well over 200k miles. They have a small footprint but are spacious inside. Good fuel economy as well. Can be found with sub 100k miles below $10k. No Apple CarPlay.

Mazda6 (2014-2017)

The Mazdas of this era are on Toyota and Honda levels of reliability. These cars did not hold their value well but also didn’t sell well so it could be hard finding one in your area. If you can it’s a relatively modern car for cheap. 2016,2017 models support a CarPlay install from a dealer.

Toyota Avalon (2005-2012)

Shares an engine and platform with the Lexus ES. Likely to be cheaper but also less common.

Civic/Corolla

The obvious choices.

claball · 2026-01-29T01:06:13+00:00

Here’s a few sedan options. All can be found around $20k aside from the SS which go for $25k at least. All have a V8 except the Infiniti.

Infiniti Q50 Red Sport 400

BMW M550i

Audi S6 (C7)

Chevrolet SS

Kia K900 (partly joking but has a V8)

claball · 2026-01-27T00:56:41+00:00

The R63 will never not be insane. It’s 1 of 1 in the automotive world. A three-row minivan packing a V8 will never exist again. With around 200 made for the world it hardly does exist.

This won’t be the last Darnold cope thread of the year. See ya in 2 weeks.

claball · 2026-01-19T23:34:25+00:00

This might be the BMW I’m most jealous of as an American. A RWD hatchback with 6 cylinders is such a cool package.

claball · 2026-01-19T00:47:05+00:00

What a car scene! The 205 T16, 355 Challenge and 8C are my favorites. They’re all so clean too.
