What are the worst cars you drove this year?

I’m just hoping it is something dangerously exciting. Ariel Atom or Viper.

The Infinit Q50 is drive by wire, though in case of failure, there is a mechanical clutch that is engaged if drive by wire fails.

I think it is more about girls only being interested in tall men, which is especially true since Tinder is so shallow...not tall enough, swipe...

Aftermarket LSD is probably $2k to add. If you plan to upgrade the LSD for Autox/track, a sport would be worth it, but the Club has the nice radio and a couple other things that would be nice over the Sport.

You can ad nav to the club with a $400 sd card.

Lols, the Miata has cheaper insurance than my Impala. Both are 06ss. It also had cheaper insurance than other powerful sedans. Corvette insurance was pretty cheap too. I’m 22 BTW. Oftern sports cars have lower insurance since they have lower accident rates than cars like the STI/Evo or any other powerful sedan/wagon

I’d suggest getting a WRX then get a Miata as a second fun car. You can get a NA for pretty cheap, then you could get some aftermarket seats to give you more headroom and some other tall person mods. Also the WRX would be great in the winter if you are in the north.

Haha, great article. I had a fun experience with this. I’ve gotten a couple mailers from the dealer like this and I was like there is no way they want to buy my Impala. It’s an 06 that just rolled over to 200k that we’ve had since new, and the same dealer we bought it from was mailing us. When my dad bought a new car

They send 2 police cars to investigate this. Seems like a waste of police force, but then again I bet the police have nothing better to do.

At this rate even the Carmax warranty at $7k would be a great deal.

Yeah, the key is to get to the point where you don’t need credit. :-) im mostly concerned about building credit history since I’m pretty young. My car was my first big purchase and after grad school I’ll be making enough where I can have a pretty hefty down payment for a house, like you were suggesting.

Wish I had this advice when I bought my car this year. I paid in cash, and didn’t think of the other reasons to get a loan. My parents always paid cash and I just did the same. But it would have been better to build my credit and have some extra money to make investments with instead of having my money tied up in a

Did any other students bring their own cars?

I’m gonna say I’d much be behind a Jalop than a normal person driving half the speed limit. And I’d hope a Jalop would let you pass if you are driving faster.

When are you going to take the GTR to the track?

I’m guessing that is after a lady stopped on the freeway which then 2 motorcycles ran into the back of her car and the riders died. Stopping in the middle of the freeway when traffic is flowing normal is a horrible idea.

I just spent around 120% of my annual salary in January on a 06 Miata. But I’m a college student and didn’t have any expenses and just paid cash. In retrospect, probably should have just gotten a loan for part of it to help out cash flow and build credit but not much I can do about that now.

I’d drive like a safe responsible person, no matter the car. If the owner tells me I can go faster then I would. If someone was test driving my impala, I would be pretty afraid if the drive aggressively since it’s not sporty or nice handling. If someoe drove the same speed in my Miata I wouldn’t bat an eye.

This doesn’t quite make sense. If I wanted to buy a used car for $5k, how does PPI plus fixing whatever’s wrong on the car equal getting a $20k+ car. Not everyone has enough money to buy their kids new cars. But for $5k you could get an old reliable Honda or Toyota.
