Spent a long day yesterday detailing the new car. Wash, iron remover, clay, polish, ceramic prep spray, 3x coats of ceramic coating. Really happy with the final product.

Catback should be fine, heck my Toyota dealer offered to install one for me. DP, I would not install unless you tune the car. It's a risk vs reward thing.

Which bumpstops did you use? Are you sure you aligned the springs properly on the top and bottom and they are seated correctly?

Good point. I just need the ECU unlocked and a Pure 800 turbo so I can make my wife pee her pants and go viral :)

Just a few things to consider. Let's assume 0 down on a 3.0 Supra Premium. Depending on your state, taxes, reg your probably looking at a $60K loan for 7 years lets say at 3.8% (some people will get a lower interest rate, some people higher). The cost of that loan for 7 years is $8400. GAP...

Or don't modify your car so you can keep your warranty? People who lease for example.

True, but until they actually give people a date when it's going to be for sale it's going to result in a million requests. And if they still don't have release date in a month or two you will see people get angry. Which is not good for them either.

I don't disagree, as long as you are fiscally responsible and are not just buying more stuff. I saw some friends get hit really hard in the mid 2000's when they took advantage of low interest rates. They took out big auto loans but they also borrowed against their home (low interest rates) and...

Oh yeah, auto loan debt has skyrocked and continues to climb every year. Edmunds found that the average American puts 11.7% down on their vehicles. If you think about it, in most states that barely covers your taxes, dealer fees, etc...

My personal opinion is they should not have announced this until they were comfortable actually selling it. They are going to get flooded with tons of people bugging them to release it.

I don't know the cost of a full replacement B58 motor with labor, but I am guessing it's into the double digit thousands. I suspect many people have financed 80-100% of the car and may not have cash on hand to pay for a really expensive item that is no longer covered under warranty.

Depending on the mod, no they really don't. For example, if your engine grenades and they find an aftermarket tune it's game over. Mag/Moss was not really created for people to take perfectly good working OEM parts on the car and replace them with parts with the intention of providing more...

It's likely blown out of proportion. If you read the owners manual they mention the fact that some engines will burn more oil during the first 10K miles. For a variety of reasons, some of them mechanical and some of them environmental. I see people with modified Supras that drive the piss out...

I bought one, that’s what I did.. Upcoming mods.. Doing the subwoofer DIY mod this week. Have a carbon fiber spoiler on the way.. Installing the Amazon $8 wind buffeting fix today.. Friday I’m doing paint correction and ceramic coating myself (estimating 8 hours). Fun little car.

It's all supply and demand. The problem is supply for sports cars is drying up fast. The real way to come out ahead would be to sell your used sports car now and then hold off buying another one for few years if you can once the market corrects. I just sold my 2020 Camaro for about an $8K...

Picked up my car today. New 3.0 Premium in Turbulence Grey with a bunch of options, $58,145 MSRP and they sold it for $52,447 ($5698 off MSRP) before $699 dealer fee, and taxes/registration. 3.49 interest rate for 75 months. I have to say my dealer (Hoffman Toyota) was awesome. At the end...

I had this happen to me. Found one advertised for $5K off MSRP.. Well that was assuming you qualified for military, college graduate, etc, etc. It was really $3500 off, and then you have to watch for tricks. Like $800 dealer fees, and you also have to buy packages for vin etching, paint...

Out the door really varies by state. Some states it is almost 10%+ for taxes, etc. Others it's 2% or less. My state (CT) is even more confusing. It's 6.25% for any vehicle under $50K and 7.75% for any vehicle $50K and over. Which can really mess you up as you are not just paying the higher...

For engine/powertrain any modification you do that changes the OEM part with an aftermarket part with the specific intent of increasing performance could result in a warranty denial. Examples would include things like tuning the ECU, downpipes, intakes, big turbo, etc. Mag/Moss warranty is...

Fair enough. Truth be told I don't love the Camaro styling, I bought it to track the car while I waited for my C8 order. Which has now most likely turned into a A90 Supra and project Lotus Elise. The good news is that I am selling the Camaro it next week with a $9K profit over what I paid...
