It seems like it's difficult to write about the new Z without the transmission "issue," which Toyota has "corrected" by releasing a manual version of the Supra. Everyone has their own priorities. I'm done owning three peddle cars. I feel more connected to the road and have more fun flipping a...

I've been waiting on this because I'm looking forward to something else I can spend money on that will potentially damage my car and make very little difference in actual performance. I haven't read all 10 pages of the thread. I'm on page #4. I also haven't read any of the product's...

It's the stock steering wheel. You know it. You probably hate it. It's taking up room in my garage and I don't just want to pitch it. Only has about 4900m of use on it. Excellent condition. $150. Buyer pays shipping (from KY).

Good point about inflation - just another number in the equation. And then trying to project inflation over the term of a loan? This is why I pay someone much smarter than I am to tell me what the best move is. I didn't like the idea of this for years, though. I'm not paying fees for someone to...

I did. I bought my other two cars ('21 Tacoma TRD Off-Road & '21 Highlander Platinum) with cash, too. Not dick waving. Much like @zrk, I just can't bring myself to take a loan out for a depreciating asset. You're losing money all around. Taking out a home equity loan for a major home...

I just want to say what you have done with the page is magnificent. I haven't checked it recently.

This sounds both amazing and terrifying.

I think you answered your own question.

I'm Lexington area - you?

Look, I lean left on most things, and my job is even with an organization that is responsible for cleaning up big, nasty, harmful messes in the environment. I think it's important. But this... this... I would be upset about my tax dollars being spent on. I lived in NOVA for a bit, which was my...

Ooooooooooooooookay. Thank you. This makes sense. So at some of the places I work they do checks for various types and levels of radiation as vehicles are driving past. My mind went there, not literally pulling people over to do smog checks. I'm tired. Also, I suppose it pays to live in a red...

Wait - mobile smog checks while you're driving by them?! What manner of wizardry and insanity is this?!

Yeah that's not normal, IMO. I'm beating on my car every time it's out of the garage and I've only had to add a quart in about 7k miles, but I've also had an oil change in there around 5k. I added the quart at about 3k miles which I would expect during break-in and is consistent with other BMWs...

Oh different mirrors are a good idea. Nice!

Thanks! I highly recommend it. In terms of overall enjoyment and tactile feel, it's significantly improved over the parts bin crap Toyota put on the car.

Ho-lee-shit this is dark. It almost looks blacker than the paint! Don't get me wrong, it looks great, but man. In a car with visibility problems already, does this make it worse? I've thought about basically a clear "tint" just to cut down on heat, because I track the car, but I just can't...

I did a thing! Well, I paid a shop to do a thing because I just had kid #2 and the timing of these parts being delivered was not conducive to doing the work myself. Had them install the under-body Cusco brace (you know what it looks like - I'm not crawling under the car to get a picture) and had...

How much are you burning?

Awesome. This will make practically no difference for how I use the car in most cases, but I'm looking forward to getting it done for track use none the less.
