- I disagree that it looks like a golf. I own 2 of them and I can tell you these lines are much closer to the Civic early models. Look at the hatch and back windosofakingback
- https://hotrod205.fi…sofakingback
- Golfs have harder angled lines, with a pointier wedge feel. Civics have softer round lines. also, lower for and generally more compact looking...sofakingback

Finally decided to ditch my E46 touring for this beauty:
Bought it in mid feb. 2.5l inline-six, the "small one". Having great fun with it, although it needed a $1000 roof fix quickly after my purchase. Everything running smooth af now, replaced fluids and filters last month. 70k miles on it, no scratched bumpers, no curbed wheels, interior looking fresh aside from one button being used heavily, no cracks in the leather etc. Service history complete.. Totally happy with my hairdresser vehicle :-) Vroom vroom bitches!

- Shane, there is no coupe of the E89, only the previous model had the E86 coupe.mekk
- @imbecile, E46 is still my fav BMW series somehow, I hope to be broke the day I see a well kept manual Estorilblue or Stratusgrey 325/330ci for sale.mekk
- that was my E46, for anyone interested: https://www.qbn.com/… Kept it for almost three more years after starting to look for sth else...mekk
- But... why? when we have Mazda Mx-5's in this world.shapesalad
- Miata was considered but the cabin is too small for me, I'm 6'4mekk
- Nice. I like the BMWs six cylinders. I am longing for an Alpina at the moment. Mostly an e90, maybe an e46. But only petrol and touring.Longcopylover
- i have an e90, much enjoymentimbecile
- I had an e46 manual estate wagon with the sports package. It handled like it was on rails, hauled the kids and the dog nicely but was a money pit to maintain.fooler

Well, my car is painted and finished (for now). Sorry BabySnakes, I know you loved it but the 58 Corvette grille lost out to the more classic look of the stock one. I also replaced the side exhaust with shorter ones which IMO look better. Thanks for all the positive comments in my progress photo posts.
- Whooaa beauty I wannna drive :D
you did a great job, have fun!sted - Nice. My first wreck was in a 71. Tottaled it, a van and an IROC.lemmy_k

- I love this. It does look like a mix of every super car out there. I see Vette, McClaren, Audi, Lambo. Still, can't wait to see it in person.mandomafioso
- They moved the engine to the rear. The insurance for this will be even higher than before.CyBrainX
- As a kid I wondered why they couldn't make a fast looking car with a cheap engine. Ppl are paying for looks.sarahfailin
- The Tesla Roadster 2020 looks betterNBQ00
- and costs exponentially more. This is a steal. They'll sell these hand over fist. I'd never want a Vette, but this would get me in the show room.formed

My current truck is a 'rusted to pieces' 2000 dodge ram that I pretty much ran into the ground so I finally picked up something "new"
my truck I bought last week.
I nick named it "MAGA" because it had a bunch of gun and US flag stickers on it, but its looking pretty clean now.
I cant even drive it yet because they wouldn't let me import it into Mexico because I needed the original title, so in around 5 weeks im going to try and cross it into Mexico again,
- I live in Austin and THAT my friend is definitely a Texas truck. Haha congrats. Fingers crossed the title and tags go smoothly.GM278
- You'll need to get wraparound sunglasses and a high vis vest to drive that truck. :-)PhanLo

- i like the sheer brutality of it.hans_glib
- Revisiting it: It looks good at 90 degree angles. @hardhat agreed. There's a good documentary that you might have seen called "Who Killed the Electric Car?".garbage
- My uncle (who lives in Mississippi of all places) had a friend who was a part of an electric truck project by a major manufacturer in the 90s.garbage
- He said that he was amazed at how effective it was as a work vehicle, and then project was revoked for "reasons". Hmm...garbage
- Torque on EVs is brutal, so great for Work Environment. Trouble is, batteries were shit back in the 90s. Now? I think most site vehicles will go EV very soon...Nairn
- ..I can even imagine some construction stuff getting plugged in, because why the fuck not?Nairn
- The only thing EV suffers from (and it's only a minor issue) is range. Or, sustained top-end output, but that's only for race cars and cretins with tiny dicks.Nairn
- Actually, cretins with tiny dicks only like to fartblast around towns for short sustained periods before they dampen their Y-Fronts prematurely.Nairn
- You lost me at Y-Fronts, lol.garbage
- speaking of range / power issues: https://www.cnbc.com…PonyBoy
- A lot of people won't like it, but a LOT of people do. And there's some really smart thinking behind this truck. They're a nice bunch with true intentionshardhat
- The cut-through as grown on me. Also it would look pretty amazing when mudded / dented up. Those distressingly perfect lines well earn character.garbage
