Overtime Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 its between one with this body style or this, just want some opinions... the pictures are kinda misleading because im not gonna buy cars that look that nice, just those body styles, im goin to sell the el camino and the rx7 and get one of those three kinds of cars, so i just thought i would ask for some feedback... i got the amps covered though...

Cracksmoka Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 get rid of an el camino and an RX7????? are you fucking sick????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overtime Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 here is the problem neither car are reliable, and have so very much been tormented over the thought of sellin the el camino (its basically like my child at this point) but i need something that is reliable, and i can get another el camino later, this one was just a lemon,,, and the rx7 was a 50 dollar car, and thats just profit no matter what i sell it at..

iloveboxcars Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 so... you are trading unreliable cars in for a vw?... interesting. i would go for the first body. i normally like vw hatchback body styles but those ones just dont do it for me.. i think it's because of the headlights.. im not sure though.

Manifesto Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 do me a favor and get a mk3. a mk2, a rocco and especially the corrado are the most unreliable vws out there.. next to your rx7. but the car that will give you the least head ache out of your choices is the jetta. please swap out the 16v or 8v digifart or cis....and swap in something from the obdII generations... vr6 please. g60 is also the biggest piece of crap out there. rados are only good if you get lucky and have a wel kept car. and they go for a high price, since they are rare and a cult car.

Overtime Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 what are you talkin about, my dad had a jetta for 13 years before it was wrecked, same engine, same tranny, like 180000 miles, totally reliable...and vw's are easy balls to fix...

panic Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 my honest opinion is that you should spend whatever money you have on your rx-7 and keep it. but i voted for the jetta (i hope this wasnt supposed to be an anonomous(sp??) voting system.. if it is, Im black and from Florida, with a criminal record so my vote doesnt count) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 455 Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 well, if I had to choose.....I would go with the Corrado.....Jettas' are a dime a dozen and Sciraccos' are nothing but fucking headaches--it doesn't what you do to a Volkswagon to soup up the motor----once the wiring starts to freak out-you're fucked. Now, as far as getting rid of that El Camino---I would say "NO".--that particular body style had a version called the "Conquista" which was really just a different color scheme with some of the side body molding altered.---it would worth looking into....also....your Elco probably has a V6 or the small 305 V8 in it....and getting parts or re-building it would cost peanuts compared to buying and up-grading a newer V-dub......that's my input for you.

Quoted post here is the problem, the el camino has new engine new carb new starter new alternator new water pump new fuel pump new battery yet it breaks down motor wise and dosent run smooth, so its way more heachache than it is worth....and i know plenty about my its body style and all, im an el camino fanatic, but im just tired of this one in particular..

Joker Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Older VW's are just as unreliable as your two cars. Not all, but the majority of them are. It's rare to meet someone who didn't have a ton of trouble with their early 80's / early 90's model VW. (Your Dad fits in this category) So I think what I'm saying is all you're doing is trading one headache for another... quite possibly. Is that a risk you're willing to take? If so, go with the Jetta. If not... Honda. I'm not a Honda fanatic. I actually own a 2002 Jetta and it drives like a dream. Though I know when it comes to buying used cars you just can't beat the reliability of a Honda. Especially a certified Honda. My two cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quoted post personally, what i think you guys are doing is "oh, rx7, those are cool, fix that" but what you retards dont understand is that the rotary engine's are a fuckin pain and very expensive . most deff not worth it....

InfiniteWisdomOfThePezDisp Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 if the el camino has a new motor and all that other new stuff, take it back to where you had the work done and makem fix it. it sounds like your going to trade a headache you are aware of for another one you'll have to figure out later. how is it breaking down? what engine does it have in it?

TRAMP Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 I tip my hat to your choices, when done proper these beasts ozze style and will be a reliable car. but...unless you're mechanicly inclined and willing to start a project, the Corrado isn't the best choice. It's a sexy ride but you'll go though some shit sorting out the neglect from prior owners. Corrado's are very tempermental. actually, the Jet and rocco are right up there as well. Good luck with your search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
