My guess is that it is extremely rare. Ahmed has mentioned in other Supra videos that they have been reliable.

Is it possible for a flatbed tow truck driver to place a dolly under each of the rear wheels, then pulling the car onto the bed?

Thanks. Hopefully it won't take long for you to be back on the road.

That kills me to see that damage! I had a similar but not as bad incident happen to an older car, many years ago in CT. My friend and I went out to a nightclub in his Triumph TR7, so I left my car parked on the street. When we came back, the rear corner of my car was bashed in, and there in the...

I had the same thing happen to my 2001 C5 front rotors. The dealership turned the rotors, but told me that the next time this happens, they would have to charge me for new rotors. Apparently, this was not uncommon. I ended up getting cryo-treated slotted rotors and after 30,000 miles they were...

Sounds great! Welcome to the Mikan Blast 45th club.:thumbsup:

My Supra is an auto, and I cannot (at least at this time) sell my MX5 with 6-speed manual, as I enjoy the top-down experience too much.

As you probably know, the break-in restrictions according to the manual are: 1200 miles No higher than 4500 rpm and 100 mph I refused to buy a used Supra after reading about many forum members' beating the heck out of the car without every correctly breaking it in. My car had 11-13 miles on it...

Is that legal where you live, as far as sound level? I seems loud, but I can adjust what I hear by turning up or down my PC's speakers' volume, so it's hard to tell.

So you were able to custom-order your Supra? Or did you pick the exact one you would wait for, in the hope that it wouldn't take more than a year. Or you saw that this dealership had this particular one already scheduled to be shipped?

Definitely let us know how it turns out.?

How's your battery health? Have you checked it? Based upon what I've read and seen, getting underneath is the only way to put it in neutral. It could be that the flat bed tow truck driver can put each rear tire on a wheel dolly, then pull it onto the bed.

If there is an engine warranty issue, I think it's best to have oil that meets the certifications listed in the owner's manual.

I'm pretty sure that Mobil 1 and Valvoline oils do not comply. Liqui Moly is one other company that does have oil that complies.

I would imagine that this is somewhat like a Z06 in that most drivers would think it's a $40K less expensive C8 until they try to race you. In that regard, the car is a "sleeper".

"Fun" typically includes sights, sounds, and other physical sensations. Imagine going on a rollercoaster that was perfectly silent - no screaming sounds or clicking of the track. I was given a ride in an open cockpit bi-plane. It wasn't fast but WAS lots of fun. Ditto for driving a Vanderhall...

You're 87 and only now starting to have discomfort? That good news for us younger senior citizens! If neither of you do squat exercises, they may help keep your leg strength up.

I understand your point of view as well. And yes, having a drop-top bumps up the fun factor on another level. My NC Miata would never be a long-commuter car, as the noise gets to me after a while, but for driving on back roads on a beautiful day, the MX5 is tough to beat. As you know, you look...

You are correct in that the most productive computer has tactile "controls" such as a mechanical keyboard and mouse. MCAD designers of 3D objects and assemblies often use specialized mouse-replacements. You CAN speak to Microsoft's Word program, but the percentage of those who do so is very...

I'm curious...Would you be okay with an all-in-one desktop computer with no mechanical keyboard for daily use?:dunno:
