Damn, what an inconvenience and the 1st year production problems that I don't like to read about. Glad that they got taken care of but damn 2 weeks is inexcusable.
:rofl: Porsche already figured it out and why Twisted fabricated the mirror wind splitters. RUF also has A pillar diffusers to help channel the wind.
How Toyota didn't notice this during testing is just lazy. :nono:
There are no factory MKIV lap times. I believe the Blitz Supra @ 7:49 and Simon Hart are the only MKIV's that have clocked a lap times at the Nurburgring. Simon did 7:18 with his 700hp MKIV... with a manual... and with traffic.

The moral of the story, it's good to know people in the right places AND live in SoCal. SP was on a mission.
Maybe debris got embedded into you brake pads. Did you pull the pads off to inspect them? There is a thread here with rocks chipping away the wheel paint.
If you Google BMW AC turns on automatically, you'll find multiple threads about it.
