Oldsmobile is GOAT OG domestic brand, pops had a 85’ Cutlass Supreme that he’d bring out to car shows. Sold it when he lost his job

Any 90s or pre 2006 Lexus/Toyota,Nissan,or Honda/Acura..90s Buicks/Oldsmobile weren’t too bad either

Everything else is hit or miss man...Nikkas on here think I copped some old shyt cuz ima broke boy or something. Could’ve easily copped a mid 2000s something but I just don’t trust newer cars with all the electrical shyt that’s in cars.

Like my uncle who been a mechanic for 40 years say, these car brands make these cars to where you almost have to take em to a dealer for maintenance/repair

Why you get rid of it and was it a V6:dwillhuh:
V6 and crashed it going around a sharp curve I never went on before. Could’ve been prevented if I just put the brakes on it but I didn’t because my parents still had the title and being that it was their car and they wanted to supervise the shyt so much I figured they should be the ones to apply those brakes lmao

Little know fact, back then the Camry V6 shared the same engine as the Lexus ES. You got a Lexus engine in a entry level family sedan, shyt is pretty quick for such a small car :wow:

Need about $700 to do a good tuneup, suspension work and valve cover replacement and I’m gucci :mjcry: On everything I’m tryna keep my shyt another 10 years

Yeah I know Toyota makes the Lexus whips. Definitely hold that until the wheels fall off. You’ll be able to give that to your junior in 20 lmao

OP don't let nikkas dissuade you. I had a 91 accord with 180k miles, 02 civic with 250k, and now got a 10 G37 with 100K
Buy all your whips cash if you can and hold on to them shyts until you have no other choice
My dad and most of my friends are on that latest model and nice car shyt and honestly it's no real ROI with that mind set
you literally could end up saving 40-50k over like a decade if you are conservative with your car purchases

Meanwhile my 92' Camry
:huhldup: :francis:

I'd rather have to change an alternator (myself) than drive a 26 year old car. God forbid you get into an accident. And a lot of brands have come a long way reliability wise :manny: Wifey has had a Volkswagen and drives a Lincoln now.... no problems

I can't stay in 1 car for 10 years, shyt is agony.
