For $6800 USD, you can buy a brand new 4 wheel drive Suzuki Carry with locking differential and a manual transmission.

Then have fun paying the expensive repair bill. The battery is not cheap, plus the "special" labor hour is ridiculously expensive. :^)

Non-hybrid camry is more reliable than the meme hybrid cuckbox. It is simple and easy to repair.

Whats the overall best 2L engine car in terms of engine power, durability, and fuel consumption thats under 20k euro in the EU? I need something that doesn't require service all the time or breaks down too often. What should I get?

The Mazda engines are so slow. I tested the Mazda 3 with the Skyactiv-X and it had no power. The auto gearbox was incredibly slow to kick down as well. Corolla 2 litre is a far better option.
>>
>>27608528
A lot of euro reviews seem to be saying that Mazda auto gearboxes feel sluggish and people should buy manual if they want to enjoy driving.
How did the gearbox behave when accelerating? Was it letting the engine rev the way it should?

I have a grey import 2015 CX-5 from Japan. What I know:

>14:1 compression ratio on the diesel as well
>Exhaust valves stay a little open for part the intake stroke while cold
>Auto box locks up super early
>Auto rev match down shifts even in "D"
>I almost thought it was a dual clutch when I first drove it
>If you have a wheel in the air it hardly spins at all before sending power to the rest
>Full throttle the first 2 gears are short and make it feel like a rocket
>Barely any turbo lag
>First KEKV I drove that actually drove well
>Pull back to shift up, push forward to shift down like God intended.
>Better clearance that most other KEKV's

Problem is that it is still a KEKV. However I think it deserves more praise than it gets, though not as much as that retarded autist that posts about it every other day gives.it.

Why do people predominantly buy SUVs and sedans when the backseats & boot are empty 99% of the time?
Thats a rhetorical question, I know the answer is because everyone completely overestimates the amount of space you actually need and use.
What I'm trying to say is - why aren't coupes more popular? Unless you have kids, why have backseats?
If you're realistic, the space of an mx-5 is all you need. Are your weekly grocery shoppings so large you need a huge boot, fatty? Exceptions, like when you're moving furniture, are exactly that - exceptions - and prove the existence of an overall rule. You don't need more than 2 seats and a small boot. The american mind may not be able to comprehend this.
>>
>>27608521
>What I'm trying to say is - why aren't coupes more popular?
Because most people don't give a shit about muh coupe driving dynamics and don't want to buy or rent a second car for those cases when they do actually need 4 seats and a large boot.

>over the f900?

yes
Internet says the 310 gets 62mpg, and the f900 gets 38mpg.
Then look at the tire costs. Admittedly if you only ride in town that might take a while, but eventually it adds up, same with oil.
Then look at how much the difference is, decide if it's worth it to you to go f900 or 310.
Or just yolo the f900. Your call.

If this is your first bike and you can swing the cost difference... it's worth it. If you have another big bike then the g310 starts to make more sense.... or just ride the other bike.

What are the fucking pros and cons of truck-based SUV's and pickup trucks?
>>
>truck based suv pros
body on frame so it's strong, easy repair, and good offroad.
truck parts fit, so parts are cheap
truck bed, transmission, and engine so you can generally tow a lot, and use it as a truck that stuff is harder to steal out of(important in the coming era).
pickup trucks get all the above+ longer beds, but lose the interior covering unless you get a camper shell.

Biggest con?
initial cost, mpg's(compared to cars), and general running costs.
Heavier items=more wear=more cost. At least compared to your basic cheap commuter. Even then the american trucks have so many made that economy of scale for parts can counter this right the fuck out.

Oh, and if you live in CA a pickup is a "commercial vehicle" so your registration costs more. Like 300 vs 150 for a suv.

How stupid of an idea would it be to buy a used Mercedes or BMW if you couldn't afford them new? Used ones that are about 10 years old are same or cheaper than similar Toyotas. Is the reliability and maintenance cost that bad?
>>
>>27608531
I would say 3-5 years old. If it’s a good model, nothing expensive will break but it’ll still have lost half its value. 10 years and maybe you have to replace a transmission or engine. Also, by then all the luxury features are now standard in every modern shitbox.

As someone who buys and sells cars, Fiats are usually junk by 80k miles or so, and even if you have a "good" one the value plummets just from the fact there are so many bad ones. I do like the look and how they drive, but honestly I would avoid them unless you get a great deal on one.
