That’s crazy as the two most likely scenarios were a crazy clutch drop test drive causing glazing or fluid contamination. The dealer who sold it to you should at least be willing to help. How many miles did t have at pick up
I would agree that it’s worth a second look at the warranty situation. Unless you suck, and I’ve never driven a clutch before or modded the power level there has to be fluid Contamination on the clutch itself
this is almost verbatim what I was going to write. The manual and later model year cars will carry a premium over however the market values this car. there is potential due to low production, exotic looks and end of the line visceral old-school internal combustion driving dynamics. But nobody...
The Mark 4 didn’t sell in huge numbers as a Toyota but did quite well as a Lexus. The NA Lexus started just under where the turbo Supra did. Same platform, same 2JZ, same W58 5 speed and the same LSD.
The red badges were a 23 A91 perk, they are slightly Disingenuous on American cars. In foreign markets they are for manual cars, they OPs car is neither. That said it looks like the Dealer slapped a bunch of stuff on to justify it to markup
I would be shocked if it isn’t the same B58
I was thinking about the carbon fiber rims but 15k for wheels and tires on a 60k car is a non sequitur to me
Looking at the nurburgring videos at a minimum assuming that the visible mods, the carbon fiber wheels, brakes, body kit ,wing and most likely the A91 strut bar.
I don’t see how the MSRP won’t be at least 75k maybe up to 80K. I’m contemplating upgrading my 23 but if the price goes crazy...
I might have heard wrong on various news articles. I was comparing it to the a91 mt which came with the red badge. Considering the 45th has the GR strut brace and the tan interior is now going to be sprinkled among the masses, it seems the colors, suede shift boot and the red badge are the only...
Not like car rates are much if any lower smart guy. Buying a 60k car over 5 years monthly outlay equals about a 250k monthly outlay for a 30 year property. And that is before tax, income and equity considerations, but keep thinking small brother.
I’ve wasted 100s of thousands on cars since I was a teen. I have had a lot of dope cars but all that money is mostly gone. While totally a case of do as I say not as I do, buy your self a vacation property with the money you are going to spend on the car and get a 6speed accord and drive the...
