Do you want a new car?

[charlielebbern]

Yes maybe.

 

[dontpanicbobby]

I never had one.
I'm from Boston.

I have a car. When it's no longer reliable I'll replace it. I've never bought one new in my life though - I guess someone has to but I've never seen the sense in it myself.

 

[puppykickr]

No.
My car is 50 years old, and is two years older than me.

My father calls it 'The Car That Will Not Die'.

I seriously hope that I die before it does.

My dad has nearly always bought new cars, but I haven't, and certainly don't need one now.

My car is 50 years old

What make and model? How many miles?

 

[Dannydet]

I get a new lease vehicle every 3 years.

 

[bcrichster]

I guess I do.. So I did, Lol. really not bad. 2020 Civic Sport.. 200hp @ 40mpg, seems almost as smart as a Tesla

What make and model? How many miles?

1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass 4 door sedan
350 Rocket with 500 CFM 2 bbl chokeless (DIY modification) carburetor and large modified single exhaust that exits in front of rear passenger's side tire (similar to NASCAR style)

~195,000 miles (rebuilt at 102,000- spun a bearing a day after a highway race with a fox body Mustang 5.0, won though, hahaha)

Got it in 1995, it had 55,500 miles on it.

Id love one, but also appreciate the classics

No. I haven't bought a new car since 1993. Even then, that one wasn't bought for me, but for my wife at the time. I don't buy new cars for two reasons: 1. I like paying cash for my cars. 2. I like luxury cars, and I wouldn't be able to afford the cars I like if I bought them new(at least not if paying cash).
I generally own at least 2 cars at a time. That way, it is easier to be proactive with maintenance.

I want to buy a larger car, the so-called SUV! But so far there is not enough finance.

Can I recommend a Honda CR-V? Great g@$ mileage and room..

 

[Deleted User]

Yes maybe.

Do I want a new car?

OK. Put it on my drive. I'll look at it later.

 

[no one]

Yes. The Audi RS7 comes to mind. Perhaps a CLS 53, or E 53. The CT5-V is attractive, but the interior is straight out of a 7 year old Buick.

I'm in the mood to upgrade my 14 Dodge Ram. It's nearing 1000K but is in great shape and has given me no grief. We replaced my wife's 04 Grand Am last summer with a 2020 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk so I'll just have to wait a while. One vehicle upgrade at a time is all I'm good for.

Hello everyone. but I'm not looking at the new one yet. I have a Toyota Corolla Active 2014, but my wife has a Toyota C-HR 2017.

Oh, cars from the 90s are certainly good. But I'll tell you this. A friend of mine had a 1995 TrailBlazer. Very nice car. but when the transmission flew, he sweated. I wanted to repair something myself. He searched and read for a long time until he found this https://at-manuals.com/ manual. Then he seems to have repaired himself - and quickly sold the car.
