^^ neat cars i forgot about. the fun engine stopped in '05 though, and none have an LSD. really want that traction if i'm going to rallyx it.

Want something super cheap and out of left field that hits a surprising # of boxes?

https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/detail/710404143/overview?aff=share_text

Lux-o Ford Contour. Manual. V6. AWD. 4 doors. Not crazy unreliable or hard to fix (it's a Ford Contour.) Quiet. Can drive to the parents house. Comfortable.

I am a sick genius Smile

if nothing else, this has made it clear that nobody has a more insane categorical knowledge of obscure cars to recommend that you do

:lol: :lol:

that is actually a really great suggestion, Adam. I'd love to watch the faces on the other rallyx-ers as you up in that.

It's still got that vtec-ish fun motor. But, yeah no LSD.

I've seen it all now. Someone actually suggested a camry and someone else backed up that suggestion. I don't even

I feel the same way every time someone suggests a CX-5... or any other CUV/SUV for that matter.

Re: Help Me Buy A Car Thread v.ScottyB: WITNESS ME BROTHERS - JPolen01 - 08-31-2017

Well that's because the CX-5 is great for those who don't want a wagon.

And I meant corolla in my previous post but whatever.

they're small sedans with performance parts. that's all it is. some parts work better on some than others. the end.

picked up a car Saturday. as seems to be the case with how things have gone, the purchase was an adventure in its own right, but its finally over.

thanks for the input, and no i didn't pick up an FD like some of you scandalous shysters

in case anyone is interested, here is the Si i attempted to buy the first time around that fell through.  its in Raleigh.  owner is genuinely a good dude and anal about the car, his wife got in an accident when we were trying to settle the deal and he had to pull the car back off the market until now.  i wouldn't blink at the mileage - he was very well versed on the maintenance and very confident about an inspection, which for me included a compression/leakdown.  i think its in better shape than mine and the nicest stock 4-door Si i saw in my searches.

if anyone cares, i can give you his number directly.

also, as a final followup, if anyone cares, i can put together a thread of how the insurance claim went and some things i felt made my claim go better than if i went in cold.  it might not be a process some people here are familiar with, particularly if you're younger.  its not a cut and dry process and there is bargaining to be had to get your best possible payout.

I hope something like that is available next winter.
