So as a late graduation present, my parents have decided to buy me a car of my choice. I'm currently a freshmen in college and up until now, have been driving a motorcycle. My question to anon is, what car should I pick out? My parents budget is 25K and under (I know, richfag).I was thinking maybe a Scion with a ton of aftermarket stuff thrown on it, but I duno.Pic somewhat related, having a tron like car like that would be pretty cool :D

What makes you rage, /car/? For me, it's seeing 20-year-olds riding CBR600RR's or GSXR's with their jailbait girlfriend, neither one wearing helmets or any sort of protective gear.
when I leave my apartment parking lot I have to make a left turn into heavy traffic. Everday a stupid cunt drives up and blocks my fucking vision and goes before me GODDAMNIT I HATE THOSE PEOPLE
People who drive Escalades, Hummers, and the shitty like. ESPECIALLY the stupid, upper-middle class soccermoms who do. That's what fucking minivans are for - you don't need to show off your "wealth" by driving an absolutely unnecessarily massive piece of shit that wastes oil like a motherfucker.Pic related.

Shit that pisses me off on the road.-People who don't know how to use stop signs/or yield properly.-People don't signal in congested traffic.-People who hug the fast lane regardless if they are already speeding or not-Big ass trucks that get right up in your ass with high beams on.When I see some asshole fucking off in the fast lane I like to go around them and cut them off.

my subaru seems pretty fucked. the auto, when shifted from park to drive, sometimes takes over a minute sitting in neutral before it shudders and eventually shifts into gear.it has been kicking into gear for a while, but i ignored it because i am poor. i'm pretty sure this is a sign i am now fucked and the transmission is on the verge of explosion.so, /car/ should i spend the money to fix it, or bandage it up with some lucas trans fix which makes it a little better for a while, then trade it in on something with a manual for about 5k?

Change the transmission filter;dirt cheap & might fix it.
>>6048tried that, actually, didn't do shit. totally drained the transmission and put all new fluid in it, too, and that didn't help.

5 speed swap? just sell some shit.
>>6054that would end up costing me more than trading it in on something with a manual to begin with.

Good luck going any faster than 120 on that short ass final drive. You'll love it when my Integra walks you.

Piss on your faggot Honda.I drive around doing the speedlimit in my 2009 M3 Coupe that pushes 600 horsepower.I break the speedlimit to pass up faggot assholes like you that drive around in your rice burners thinking that you're the shit.Get a real man's car. Pussy.

I'm planning on getting into scooters soon. I really like the more vintage looking ones. I sorely want a Genuine Motors Stella, but I'm holding off until the 4-stroke model comes out next year.What does /car/ think about scooters?

i've thought of getting a scooter due to it's low fuel consumption, but i live in calgary, and I dunno how well these things can handle snow
>>5973Get a tread conversion kit. I'm sure they make them.
>>5981yeah you can get kits but I wouldn't ride in the snow. snow turns to ice when cars drive on it, fuck that for a lark!
Hey guys, i have a 2000 chevy cavalier, and when i tried to turn it on, it wouldnt start.The sound it makes isn't the same as a dead battery. It just thuds, not like a whining sound, just a thudding sound.What could it be?Help /car/!

Any cars you guys drool over? A particular example you really like? For me, it's this satin black Audi RS4 Avant. Damn, she's sexy. Wish I could find more about it, all I've seen is the same 3 pictures.

tl/dr whats your thoughts on small ocean going sailboats
I think that if anyone sails on the damned ocean they're automatically a Grade A badass. Sailboats are so awesome...
I've never actually ridden on a Sailboat, or driven one.My dad has had quite a few powerboats though, which were fucking awesome. The best was a 42 ft Sonic, which was fuckwin. Had a generator, A/C, a tv, 2 beds.Shit was blaze. It was expensive as fuck though, and as much gas as it took, we could've bought another house.I would really love to do what >>6038 said. Island hopping for a couple years would just be epic.

If only I had this boat. Thing can jump on command and has a fucking cannon, how sick is that
>>6038 im op and i belive im just about at that point in my life, the boat pictured is a 27 foot contessa this design has been sailed on mulltiple single handed circumnavigation's of the globe, it can also (be it a lil cramped) take a crew of 3 + the captain my genral plan is to get one on the cheaper side of 10 grand .au and slowly fix her up as i take longer and longer blue water trips and hopefully just get to a point where i set sail one day and just dont come back for multiple years (pic related)
>>6060if I ever become a richfag, I will have one of these built. Probably small scale. A one or two person boat at most.
I ride a bicycle everywhere. It gives me a sense of moral superiority which allows me to cut people off, give them the finger and "take a lane" for no other reason than to piss drivers off.Before you give me some shit about this, realize that I truly don't give a fuck.tl;dr I don'r give a fuck

You've failed to take into account that car > bicycle.Just appreciate that right of might is not practiced in America.

I like biking too, it gives me a reason to be an asshole to all the drivers I'll never see again.
Moral superiority=not giving a fuck.Lesson learned OP.
Make sure that when you "take a lane," that the car you're cutting off is paying attention. Buddy of mine got killed a few weeks ago doing that, and I'd hate to see it happen more often.
I really try to be accommodating to people in cars, as we all share the road, but if you bitch about having to pass me while I'm hugging the white line on the right lane, I'll give you the finger. It's fucking illegal, and bad for your tires to ride on the sidewalk.
Best way to get around town for free?LONGBOARDS FTW
are you all retarded? bikes are hands down the best way. longboards can be fun, but they are slow, and require more effort to move. bikes go farther, faster, and with less energy expended.
What's a high quality brand of Longboards? I'm looking to get one cause me and my stoner friends need a new hobby. Is buying a premade one a dumb idea? What's a good wheel brand/size/composition?
I regularly pass bicycles while on my longboard. It is not that hard to push fast, and There is a way of propelling the board without putting your foot down called Pumping. If your looking for commuting then get a drop through deck like a loaded dervish (pic related). It will ride smooth, low, and quick. Its a 40 in deck I think. www.muirskate.com has 'em cheaper than anywhere else
