  1. Heads up Display Apple Maps

    Hah, no, you're just hopeful! :)
  2. Heads up Display Apple Maps

    That isn't what's happening in that video. From the description: "... then trying 2 navigation sistem at the same time !!!! One on head up display and one on navigation display ;) " So they're navigating with both Waze and factory navigation. Waze is not displaying on the HUD. Some versions...
  3. Buying from CarMax

    Absolutely - there's just zero reason for me to do that in person. I've never had a problem with negotiation, and it's easier for me to walk if they're not interested in talking. I've never had an issue getting the deal I want, and if they aren't willing to discuss without me physically being...
  4. Buying from CarMax

    Trust me, I am absolutely in that boat! I've bought most of my cars in the past 2 years without spending more than ~30 minutes at the dealer signing paperwork. I wouldn't even have done that most of the time, if I didn't want to drive the car and do a solid visual inspection first. The Carmax...
  5. Buying from CarMax

    Honestly, they gobble up so much of the used car inventory, it's difficult NOT to, for some models. Carvana especially right now - with what they're offering to buy used Supras for, it's more than a lot of us paid new, so it's a no-brainer. As for how on earth they have so many people buying...
  6. Buying from CarMax

    A Solid counterpoint. You’re absolutely right. This ‘no-haggle’ pricing dealers are doing now is such a crock of BS.
  7. WTB/Rent stock downpipe, Pittsburgh area

    My very first thought reading through this thread was wondering why you're giving great money to people instead of just buying them new, in bulk! I guess that question is answered. haha
  8. Space between Tyre and Fender when lowered

    Nah mate, it looks perfect. I wouldn't go through the trouble to trim that a bit, unless you're dying for it to look slammed.

    Yeah - crappy manufacturers have a tendency to use vague wording to avoid red flags with new buyers. They make it sound like they have a bunch of wheel blanks laying around to be drilled with custom lug patterns, rather than redrilling a 5x114.3, or something like that, which is what it sounds...

    Looks like a BBS FI-R knock-off - they really do look great. It's a shame about your experience! On the original order page, did it say they would need to be redrilled if you wanted a 5x112? That would have been an instant turn-off for me. Requiring hubcentric rings, though, is pretty normal...
  11. Signing Off

    Yeah - STI is a completely different beast from the WRX, even. The hydraulic power steering certainly helps! I too thought the Type R would be better than the STI, so I was really shocked. Agreed about the resale once the Z comes out. I honestly kind of hate values being so high right now - it...
  12. Signing Off

    I had a 2018 RS3. I loved the engine and trans in that car more than anything else I've ever owned. Unfortunately, at the limit (or anywhere near the limit), it cornered like a FWD car. It's really a straight-line car that can turn well enough if it has to, honestly, like most other Audi Sport...
  13. Signing Off

    Drove a handful of cars last weekend, including finally getting to drive a Type R, trying to find a fun car for my wife, since she hates her X3 M Comp (traded her STI for that). The Type R is probably THE vehicle I was looking forward to driving most, after having sat in one of those brilliant...
  14. Tuning Locked ECU's Post 6/2020

    Good call. I thought maybe someone at Bosch leaked some signing keys, but your thought makes more sense.
  15. OEM Front splitter pieces

    If you go by the book, anytime you mess with the bumper, windshield, or alignment, you need a calibration. The dealer is obligated to tell you that, so that if you opt out, any malfunction of the system won’t fall on them. Does it actually need calibration? Probably not, unless you’re...
  16. OEM Front splitter pieces

    Interesting - here in NC, they charged me less than $400 for the calibration when they had to replace my radar bracket. It took nearly a week because they had to wait for the tool to come in, though. They ordered the tool on Tuesday, and it didn't arrive until Friday - though the tech said it's...
  17. Just got a 21. Have question

    The Stinger is extremely quick, especially for what it is. That said, 0-60 in 4.4, 0-100 in 10.6, and 1/4-mile in 12.9 isn’t going to beat any 3.0 Supra, stock-for-stock. While it has AWD, it also weighs over 4000lbs, with 365hp. He might get you right off of the line with that AWD grip, but...
  18. Post a pic of your first car.

    Representative photo. 1985 Pontiac Fiero 2M6 SE.
  19. IAT decrease with Versus heat shield

    Higher exhaust gas temps = higher velocity = potential for more power and faster spool, especially transient response at the track.
  20. Buying from CarMax

    Hah! I read that probably a dozen times, and didn't realize it said 'out ON' until you pointed it out.
