I love cars and work on them all the time. I was wondering if any one else is a big car fan and what types of cars do you like? My personal favorites are Subarus of almost any sort, and Im a little bit of a muscle car fan I must admit.

Epic!, my uncle has an 04 A4, wasn't a fan of it honestly. great car and handled awesome but he had the 1.8t which just had to much lag for how little power. I couldnt deal with the lack torque too, im used to my v6 mustang, i know its only a v6 but im only 19 and cant afford the insurance of the v8 yet, i have plans though. It still manages puts down about 250 lbs of tq and 200 hp with the few minor mods i do have done. (17x10 torque thrust wheels, 1/2 inch wheel spacers, K&N intake, Flowmaster dual exhaust, NRG racing seat).

EVO's are boss as hell. I just with they did what subaru does and offer a cheaper model to compete with the wrx, so i wouldn't have to pay like 40,000$ for one lol. dream car though, definitely a Ferrari Testarosa, its got a fricken flat 12 in the rear. if it were twin turbo-ed it would be like having 3 sti's in one motor :) not to mention that its a Ferrari!

I'm a car fan too, I was almost about to get an 06 A4 and decided not to. I'm driving an 05 Mazda6 which I'm pretty happy with, the handling and acceleration is outstanding and in my opinion better than a BMW 335 which is about 15K more. The downside is the 3L V6 engine which consumes my gas money like a mad man, but omg it is a fun car to drive.

In all honesty my next car might be the Subaru BRZ, it's not as powerful as my Mazda6 but I really like the aesthetics of the car and its weight. It's a fairly light car so I could pop in a super or turbo and boost it that way to make it one hell of a ride.

I have to sell my 02 Lancer Ralli Art when I get back from this deployment. Gotta sell the yellow rice runner and get something a little more durable and reliable. I'll probably be selling it to a friend who I know will take care of it, and then get an Ford F-150 or something. I really kind of want a truck lol.

Any word on the FR-S/BRZ?

And, will you wait for the BRZ STI or just the base?

Literally the difference is the badge on the hood and i believe they have slightly different bumpers but i would personally go with the subaru BRZ due to my bias and the fact that i trust a subaru shop more than a car company that is know for having millions of recalls a year

I wouldn't bother waiting for the sti version only because its not going to have a turbo on it and it wont be AWD either for the increase in price your only going to get a carbon fiber hood, a spoiler and better wheel and 50 more horsepower. Might as well buy the base and do the upgrades your self to save lots of money and get a better end result.

Citation Needed. I'm surprised you weren't referring to Subaru. Every car company has recalls and exclusively putting those onto Toyota is somewhat ridiculous. You can be biased towards Subaru by all means, but don't allow bias to put misinformation out there. I'm not trying to say that the Toyota recalls weren't a serious issue, as blown out of proportion as they were, however Toyota isn't known for "millions of recalls a year."

    • jelly3384's application for Enlistment Form Questions Name you wish to use and Age: (Our unit uses realistic names, this does not have to be your real name) Pigeon, 16 Platform Type Epic Games Store Steam ID (Use 17 Digit SteamID 64 / PC Game Pass Account Username): Pigeon_theft   Do you have a microphone? Yes   Which game title are you applying for? Hell Let Loose   If you've selected Hell Let Loose, do you understand that this game is currently not cross platform capable and only PC players currently may apply? ( Steam or PC Game Pass) Yes   Why do you wish to join the 1st Marine Raiders? I've played BFV and milsimed in it, and it was a lot more fun when I milsimed. and I enjoy playing HLL, so I think it is going to be more fun when I join.   Did any of our current members play a part in you enlisting? If so, who? If none, how did you learn about us: I found you guys from a website called disboard when looking for HLL milsim groups to join.   This unit offers more than just a place to play games with each other, do you have any online skills you think would be useful? no   Do you have any Leadership experience that you think will be helpful? I'm not sure if it will be helpfull,but I used to be in BFV milsim groups and in my last one I got to [E-7] out of [E-1] to [O-8], so I was a NCO and I helped the officers with whatever they needed doing, weather it was assisting with training, settling disputes or helping them decide what was appropriate disciplinary action. And when we were in combat I was usually assigned to lead my own squad.   Have you ever been in a realism unit before, and if so, which unit was it? yes. I was in quite a few BFV milsim groups, although I was only in one at any given time. unfortunately, I have left the discord servers and I do not remember the names of them. if you would like, I could probably give a reference to someone who was an officer in most of the groups I was in.   By posting this Enlistment form, I acknowledge the instructions completely, declare that I am 16 years old or older, and agree that I have and will follow server and unit rules maturely and respectfully or face immediate rejection.
