From what has been floating around the internet, the automatic $1,000 fine is not necessarily true. The only thing that changed is correctible to non-correctible. I know the TRD exhaust for the MKIV is sound compliant but my Apex N1 doesn't have an official CARB sound cert like TRD even though...
Yeah, that's what it usually takes but here it seems like a fatality will trigger a law change.
About the exhausts, this is what started it back in 2012. It has impacted motorcycle exhaust for the most part but auto shops have also followed...
We have guys on Harley's blaring their V-twins with straight pipes through neighborhoods, guys on crotch rockets bouncing off the redline without any mufflers and the 4 Cyl cars with their gutted pipes. They can be annoying but now any catback exhaust are instant targets for police. My Supra...
From I've heard so far, even sports cars with an OEM exhaust are getting pulled over; an M4 with a nice OEM growl . $1,000 fine and wasted time going to the state ref.
On top of that, the CHP decides to use a car that is at Laguna Seca. The race track has a strict 92db regulation with a sound...
2019 has been a rough start for car enthusiasts in CA. CHP and local police have been in full force pulling over, not only modified cars but OEM cars that "loud" like a stock M4. We like to drive our cars that have a very nice exhaust tone.
"Existing law requires every motor vehicle subject to...
haha, it needs 1,000HP.
The '16 GT4 CS put out 385HP, similar to the rumored 2020 Supra. Plus it's an NA and tipped the scales at 2866 lbs. I wonder if Toyota will leverage off the new GT4 CS specs for the GR Supra?
lol I was about to say, "Neon SRT-4?!"
I like how Toyota is finally shadowing Porsche (it's about damn time) and it was unfortunate that Porsche and Audi withdrew from Le Mans giving Toyota their only win after so many attempts and failures.
Given that Porsche is not being secretive about...
lol
How ironic that the NA version brought more even though it's a prop car. I forgot how many Supras out of the 78 were thrashed in the original FNF movie but just like Dukes of Hazard, they built over 300 General Lee's...
Well that's what Clubsports are. This is what Tada rumored with the GR Supra.
"According to a report from Road & Track, Porsche will use the new 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport as a development platform for an upcoming street car version of the same. This is incredibly good news."
It'll be fun to see the GR Supra and this thing go head to head.

That's very ignorant of Kristen Lee to "rant" about how a Toyota can sell for that much. As a car enthusiast, it's a good thing to finally see old Japanese cars bring high value to the auction blocks; especially since we've seen time after time that it has been predominately vintage American...
"On 10 February 2014, Toyota submitted an application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office to renew the Supra trademark. Toyota did say if the Toyota Ft1 Supra is approved from production to expect a price tag of around US$60,000"
Did you forget that the FT-1 was targeted in the 60K...
The dash sketch has a divider and a fighter jet cockpit layout similar to the FT-1 concept. I wonder how accurate that drawing is. Man, Toyota fucked up.
The comments are hilarious. What a bunch of whining little saps and much to their surprise that it sold for that much. They must have forgotten about the '67 2000GT that sold for 1.2M back in 2013.

If you want to talk about gen to gen dick slapping, SF is a walk in the park. lol
You want talk about some of the finest and elitist snobs, Porsche 911 owners. lol I own a 911 but I'm far from a elitist snob. My father never owned a Porsche but owned a lot of Toyotas so I was on the...
