I have a 2001 Lexus GS430. I don't like it anymore because it's slow. Contemplating taking it to an exhaust shop for dat v8. Those of you who don't care about cars are lucky. It's in my blood to have something fast. Was driving a U-haul not too long ago and was gunning it because the torque was a big thrill

Gonna go into debt next year for a used Scat Pack with 6 speed manual. Or maybe I take out a $15k loan and drop a 2JZ in the Lexus?

-cheap insurance

I know several very fast KAs. They have a lot of potential for a truck motor and even bone stock can take a huge amount of abuse. Far better than that chit tier qr25 that we ended up getting

Commodore is actually pretty based if it has a V8. Drive it until the engine or tranny blows up, then get your upgrade.

This is what you should feel embarrassed over, who cares what car someone else drives?

Nope. I personally drive a 01 Durango I bought from my father. I’d rather save up for a second home than make a car payment.

I drive a 2004 Nissan Murano SE that was passed down to me no fuks given. Feels good to not have to make any car payments, and it only has 50k miles on it.

OP, you are doing a good job by saving money. Now after all the blood, sweat and tears you wanna throw half your savings into a car?

People need to consider, what is the utility gained in a new car? Especially if you have one currently. What are you gaining actually? Bluetooth? Bigger engine? Get to destination 30 seconds faster?

2k super duty checking in

That’s why I lol @ the *******s trash talking my truck

I bought it with only 116k miles and it runs flawlessly. The electric mirrors went out though.

I’ve seen that era of superduty go to over 350k and that’s on beat to **** work trucks

Lol @ retardcels who cuck themselves with registration costs , sales and use tax and payments with 80k-100k cars/trucks

When I get a newer f150 I’m saving for it outright it and not spending more than 25k if that

What the **** do you need a brand new truck for ? They’re literally built to last until the wheels fall off
