I'll go first!
Would you rather have an '05 Civic EP3 with a K20 + 6spd LSD swap, OR a '20 Mustang Shelby GT350R (the one with the flat plane V8) but 3rd gear is busted and you've not ever allowed to fix it.
Both have 20,000 km on the odo.

Mustang Shelby any day and twice on sundays. Whaddya need 3rd gear for!? i would have demolished those peds already by 1st gear and the car would be in a tree by the time 2nd gear hit
Civic with a k20!? hooo hum...
Next question:
Would you rather; buy a new car for 'safety' reasons due to pressures from your significant other (note she'll be the one who's driving it!) or keep your loveable classic car that WILL kill and mane her if she gets in an accident....

This sounds like a trick question with no favourable outcome, but I would break the rules and do both: buy a new car for whatever safety reason there is while keeping the loveable classic because any car, no matter what, has the capacity to kill and mame anyone in any tragic accident.
Would you rather an inoperable classic Ferrari (staying true to Italian car quality) or a 2001 Sentra with hand-crank windows with no AC and manual door looks? (No CD player!)

And my question is:
If you must ditch your wife/gf (haha~!), would you go date a hawt & pretty chick? or a loaded chick that is only a 5? (assuming every other aspect of these 2 chicks are the same)

Fellow Sentra connoisseurs unite. I'm with you on that answer, honestly. Assuming you can't sell the Ferrari and have no other car, I'd rather functioning transportation than a piece of art.
Stolen from a heckler at a Jimmy Carr show - you wake up an inch in your mom in front of you, and your dad is behind with an inch in you. Are you getting out by moving forwards or backwards?

I honestly don't remember... I upgraded from a pair of 10" Kenwoods to 12"s but I spent less time with them than the 10's so I don't recall.
I moved to an Altima later and had a single 12" Hertz Dieci sub, Audison amp, and a custom enclosure though.  | |

Speak of the devil (Sentra). Looks like it's the car of choice for some cat thieves https://www.reddit.com/r/coquitlam/c...heft/#lightbox Quote: |
Keep any eye out for these pricks driving around stealing catalytic converters, this with last night off Brigantine Drive. RCMP has the videos, doubt anything will come from that.... but maybe someone will recognize them?

(No CD player!) | Although I'm known as "pastarocket", I would rather have the 2001 Sentra instead of an inoperable classic Ferrari. Italian exotics cost an arm, and a leg, and maybe your soul to fix haha. The Sentra would be more reliable and have more affordable maintenance.
Next question. This question is mainly for the married guys with kids.
Would you rather buy a late model minivan like a Sienna, new or pre-owned, or buy a new or pre-owned late model SUV, Acura MDX?

Kids as in plural? Sienna. Having space for kids to change between activities while standing is pretty sweet. Single kid? SUV.

Was hoping you'd ask. Maybe we splurge on the SE-R so we can fast & furious away from the crime scene.

Then it better be a spec V but those are probably pulling a premium so close to race wars.

| Easy! Date the loaded 5, move to Richmond, buy her a death trap.
Next question:
One $500k car (yes it’s your daily) or a fleet of cars each not exceeding $50k until $500k is met.
Edit: I up the budget from $300k to $500k. Because I’m not in that spending bracket I don’t even know what $300k can buy you.

A Solara with a GT3 motor swap.
OR
The donor GT3 RS which gave up its motor. It has now received the Solara motor in the swap.

Donor GT3 RS, nobody can tell when you stunt on robson st.
Would you rather be stuck in a 8hr car ride and be only allowed to talk current politics, the previous prime minister, and vaccine mandates with hondaracer or jason00s2000?
