I bought a new car (the "I wanna be like Gugs" thread)...

Audis are quite possibly the worst car ever. Actually the cars are cool but every time some dipshit nearly kills 40 people in one 1/2-mile stretch you think "man what the fuck is wrong with that asshole?!" and always follow up with "oh, it's an Audi, no wonder."

I didn't want to buy a new car but the damn WRX was attacking my wallet nearly as much as a new car payment. The only thing I miss is the AWD because holy balls is the Mazdaspeed squirrelly by comparison. That being said, I seem to get an odd form arousal from torque steer. It's like The Stranger whilst driving.

this is not my perception but around here it seems every third car on the road is an audi and almost no one, regardless of car make, is an asshole (and when they are they usually drive too slowly which is annoying as shit but doesn't kill anyone directly i suppose. and then they drive stupid shit like a hyundai i10 and they are a woman age 18-25 or they drive a 1982 opel rekord and they are a woman age 52-81)

anyway if i had an endless amount of time and money to sink into repair and maintenance, this is the car i would get, right there. that is the coolest car.
 
And an endless amount of money it would take. I remember those cars. Horribly unreliable. Neat car though.

Speaking of assholes: the other day some dude pulled out of a gas station right in front of me - which is cool - but he didn't bother to speed up, which is *not* cool. So I blew the horn and raised the arms in a "what the fuck?" gesture. At a red light, dude got out of his car, sized me up and started yelling at me to get out and fight him. "Let's go!" he said. I started to laugh then as he got closer I asked, "Would you like to me call Metro (police) right *now*?" and he said, "yeah, call Metro" and as he was running back to his car, I did. 911. hahahahaha
We drove several more miles together down the street and he yelled at me the whole time. But I couldn't tell what he was saying because I was on the phone with the police. I really wish I had heard him. It was probably pretty creative. I don't think I could even come up with something to yell at another person.
 
:lol:
that happened to me once when I was 16-17 with my first car. some burly older guy chased me down for a few blocks because I cut him off in my then land yacht, a '76 4 door Buick Regal. he was not saying nice things about my mom.

Cultural differences really. I'm convinced that SoCal has the worst drivers in the world, and our Collective Kings of All Dipshits think that Audi makes the best car to give to their 17 year old whores of daughters to snort coke off their shortdicked bro boyfriends' "cocks" whilst spinning in circles at 90mph during rush hour traffic.

I've been chased several times, because I tend to be extraordinarily aggressive to idiots on the road: drive normal and I won't fuck with you, act like an asshole and YOU MUST PAY. I'm sure I've shared the best stories here, but my favourite remains the dude who ran me off the road (after he cut me off, and I lovingly returned the favour), who then jumped out of his truck to chase me down, only to do a supermandive into the asphalt on his face, breaking his cell phone in the process. Haha! Fag.
 
Ok, car dudes: If you had a choice between a 2010 Mazda3 and a 2008 Sube Impreza, which would you take? They're both very low mileage (9k and 20k), both about the same price (3 about $1500 more), but the Sube is an auto and the 3 is a 5-speed (yay!). The Sube has more power and more options. The 3 doesn't even have cruise. I've driven the 3 and loved it. I own an Outback and it's great but never driven a 2008 Impreza. Isn't that the year Sube softened up the feel of everything?

Interestingly, I also found an extremely rare 2005 Legacy GT WAGON 5-SPEED. 250 hp!! But it's already got 70k on it. $14000 is an awful lot for that even though it's an amazing car.
 
just read Aurel's and Adrian's posts: hahahahahahahahahahahaha fucking hahahahahahahahahahahaha
the dude that fell down: HAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahahsdjsahdsdjqahsdjhasdasjhfhfd
 
hmm, not for nothing, but isn't that car like $18 brand new?

and a sedan? ... c'mon!
 
More like $20k.
Sedan?
I MUST have a sedan.
Wait. Do you mean as opposed to a wagon?
 
I have never, and will never, own an automatic. So I'd have to go with the Mazda with that choice.

With 800 miles experience in the Mazda v. 93,500 miles in an Impreza (6 year model difference of course), I can say that pretty much everything about the Mazda seems slightly more solid, other than a cheaper interior and lack of AWD. Also, I really do NOT miss the 400 pound clutch of the Subaru, but that might only be on the WRX, I'm not really sure. But you're really splitting hairs at that point, I don't think you can go wrong with either one. Unless you're lurch, who only got 6 mpg from his 3. :loco:
 
btw, on a side note from the SNL video in the other thread, MINI is going back into WRC Rallying with that new Countryman in this form:
