my jaguar will smell like mold from time to time but that's just because the dashboard holds water

I drive a Toyota Yaris sedan. I'm thinking maybe a pulley for my first mod. Weight reduction isnt that practical because it's still my DD.

an exposed airfilter won't give you any hp but it'll atleast make it sound cooler

there's not much you can do to a 1.5 l engine designed for fuel efficiency that would give you noticeable gains, much less at a cheap price... swap in a k20

Just had a full size deer jump out in front of me in the alfa. I forgot how well that car stops.

My Yaris is the same way. A truck pulled out in front of my car while I was doing 60 on the highway. My car stopped in around or under 25 feet. I skid of course, but I didn't have any ABS so yeah. Fast stopping cars have saved my ass more than once. Too bad Alfas aren't avaliable in the US.


So I finally gave my car's interior a proper cleaning. It's much cleaner now, and I managed to take out a bunch of old popcorn and a penny from the cig lighter port (loving parents). I test the port out... only to discover it's not working. I'm gonna take my car down to autozone tomorrow and get the fuse replaced.

Anybody wanna buy a 1930 Austin 166?
It's owned by the same guy I bought the white jaguar from

So today, I went to autozone and they told me which fuse to get. They told me the wrong fuse type and now I'm all out of money. GG NO RE.

a close friend of mine totalled her 2009 vibe about a month ago - basic white girl had to focus on reaching for her starbucks and not driving, apparently - so today, she her dad got a 2010 vibe to replace it



the last one was named niall, this one is probably going to be named harry...............

[Dragonslayer182]

lmao If I wrecked mine, I'd have to get a job and buy a new one. A sophomore in my school wrecked her VW Beetle.... and she got a brand new BMW. Yeah.

[WaterOre]

Oh the plus side, she was okay after the crash

Oh the plus side, she was okay after the crash

Relatively speaking

I promised Zloff I would post pics of my car, so here it is.

It was my high school graduation present, a gently used 2013 BMW 320i. I love it, its a great car to drive and it's super efficient on gas. I've been driving on the same tank of fuel for a whole month and haven't had to refuel yet. Only recently dipped below 1/4 on the fuel meter.

[Zloff]

A planr graduated school .... and he got a brand new BMW. Yeah.

it's loads more efficient than my 4.0 v8, yet it should hit 60 in almost a second quicker smh technology these days

Relatively speaking

she wasn't hurt in any way and she completely neglected to tell me about it-- her boyfriend told me two days after it happened lol. when i asked, she basically said "ohhh yeah that really sucked, i was just trying to grab my coffee on the highway and didn't see the truck braking in front of me. rest in peace niall haha" ...
