Good, fun car for $5k

[Ron Vogel]

Hrm

 

[Bru]

So not good, not fun and not $5k.

 

[Ron Vogel]

Lol, he doesn’t like it. We just took it home to get the sales guy to STFU. What kind of idiot tries to sell an 18 year old a crappy caddy?

He’s driving it around today, but it’s going back.

"It's got a cop motor. It's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks."

How’s an auto fwd NA Taurus any fun?

[Ron Vogel]

What kind of shape is the body?

[MENTION=76]Ron Vogel[/MENTION] why are you going to dealerships for a $5k car? Sales tax and bullshit.

GMT800 Suburban, RWD, LS based motor, room for all the hoes he needs to spread seed with... What's better than a GM small block to cut your teeth on.

I like the idea of a large SUV or truck. Can take a hit, tame on the streets and lost of options to customize

Ended up getting a ‘13 Hyundai Elantra GT

I’ve had like no sleep and have been at dealers all day. It’s a nice clean car though.

Cmon you can swing a wrench and you put him in an Elantra?

WTF really???! I would have sold you a mint e39 540i for that price. You both could have bonded over having 5 series. Although his would have been cooler.... Now he has a turd lol

These are great cars. Tuned differently than the sedan. Sporty for what they were. And if equipped, a neat backup camera that flips up only when needed, which is great in the winter when the camera doesn’t get dirty.

Bru seriously could say something nice about every car. Always finds the positives no matter how bad overall.

if I would have seen this earlier I would have suggested my neighbors G35
oh well.

Bad cars don’t really exist anymore so it’s more about being fair and finding who should buy this car and who shouldn’t. If you only focus on the negative and forget that a given car is a good fit for someone, then you’re just Jalopnik.

Doug DeMuro reviewed the 2020 Toyota Corolla and said it's a "car".

Basically agreed with what you just said.

 

[Ron Vogel]

He’s happy, car is clean. It’s a 2013, so it’s not perfect. We are doing a paint correction and buff today. 85k on it, so there’s original everything on the car.
