I love the look but figure I'd be disappointed when I went to drive it. Subconsciously, I'm thinking of it with a sweet-sounding V8. I have to remember it's an EV. :(
Mine was a 2018 with a new Gen II engine. I tracked the crap out of it the whole time I owned it. Never burned a drop of oil. The car gets a bad rap. When I checked the numbers, the oiling issue turned out to be not really all that common, though the OG engine was pulled for that reason.
I got...
One of the few times I'm happy to be short LOL. I'm a bit under 5'6" and around 190lbs (thanks covid). I bump my head getting out if I'm lazy and not paying attention. I've found it easier to slide the seat back before getting in/out. That's all because I have to enter/exit a certain way that...
I learned a lot from this thread. Fun info. :headbang:
Also, I'm going out to the car, right now, to try some of these.
One thing I've discovered: My days of tossing on magnetic number plates for track days are over. Silly, plastic cars. Now I have to stick the vinyl directly on which I'm not a...
I recently owned a car that came with CF wheels. 19x11 and only weighed 17lbs. Lighter and take more abuse? Yes, please. I believe they were $4k each from the dealership. They really do amazing things for acceleration and braking.
But.... I think I could live with aluminum for about 1/8 the...
That's fair. For some of us, being spoiled by driving really, really GOOD cars (not on paper), it's kinda hard to be okay with giving some of that up to go faster. Oddly enough: most cars that feel spectacular and are super fun to drive are usually underpowered and/or underwhelming in other...
Semi related.. but I keep seeing "get an alignment" but can't find advice on specs. I haven't added coilovers/camber plates yet, so is it really worth worrying right now?
**edit. NM. I found a thread.
I've been fighting this all weekend! :banghead: I haven't seen the option in the menu...but I'll look again. Do you happen to remember where, in the menu, it is?
Hey, Sean! I just caught this thread (...you know why...). Did you go with longer bolts with the spacers? Also, which spacers? I'm having a hard time finding a 3mm spacer of decent quality. Hubcentric?
Not as fun as my last track day, but did some autocross today. Ended up 2nd in my class behind an Elise on tire, 7th PAX and 11th overall. Car is show-room stock. The car had a ton more in it, if I had some seat time. Next weekend is a night event at Buttonwillow. No PB's going down at night...
Disclaimer: my other car is an Evo, so I got used to cars that were small, nimble and really, really fast. So, I parked the Mitsubishi because I wanted to go another route for a while. After driving the mustang, I realized that it was fun, but it was really big and awkward to drive. I had seen...
