I will, but literally every single chip I've had repaired eventually turned into a crack.
Also my windshield has 30k on it already so it's pretty pocked up. Honestly I'm shocked it lasted as long as it did without chipping or cracking.
I just got my first chip on my way home from Maine on Monday on 95. Asshats leaving piles of gravel in the middle of the interstate. My chip is not yet a crack so hopefully I can put off replacement until the end of the Summer.
No surprise to anyone who's been paying attention. VAG has been talking about EV Cayman/Boxsters for a long time.
I'm very curious to see how one of these would stand up to a typical track day with 5-7x 25 minute sessions. I assume these will need to charge between sessions on the track...
I literally couldn't find anyone within an hour and a half of my house who was willing to do it. This is the main reason why I purchased the Paco Gen. 5 Hubstands. I'm excited to give those a go.
Oil changes are just so easy with this car. It's one of my absolute favorite maintenance features.
Way easier than my STi with a Fumoto valve or my Cayman.
Yes Sir. Rust on rotors is normal if not a PITA.
This was one of the main reasons why Porsche developed the PCCB ceramic brakes. The performance benefits were secondary to developing brake rotors that wouldn't rust.
I wanted to post a quick update to keep this thread alive. Let's start with some pics!
On March 25th I did my first Car Control Clinic with the SCDA. The day was cold with light snow that turned into freezing rain and sleet. I went on the stock wheels with 255f and 275r Conti DWS-06+...
Holy smokes!! Those are cheap AF!!
I use FCPEuro a lot because they're here in CT so the free shipping is lightening fast and if I need to return something they're an hour from my house. Still though, Rock Auto is so damn cheap!
I'm at 30k on my stock rotors/pads and they're lipped pretty bad...

I really hate to be this guy, but as someone who has lost friends and family to doing stupid shit in fast cars/bikes on the street, please consider bringing your car to the drag strip. At least this way if something goes wrong you're in a much safer/controlled environment with safety, rescue...
