1983 Corvettes

I'm assuming you didn't buy the car new, and unless the BMW tech themselves wiped the valve cover, those stains look like someone simply spilled a few drops on the cover and wiped them off during a previous oil change. Hardly unusual. If this person is a full-time BMW tech, this would be one...

Having owned both, yeah, the MT sits sooo much higher on the highway, 1000+ RPM difference. It's part of the overall "high-strung" character of the MT car, which I happen to love.

Am I going to the grave without my black & white 'Supra' rug? Should I buy a local 99 Viper I'm looking at? EDIT: Too late, I'm now a Viper owner. What could possibly go wrong? :rofl:

Here..

I don't know what country you reside in, so did they ever even sell the updated "A91" version and/or six-port in your location? In the US, anyone that prefers the MY2020 over the MY2021+ is an uneducated non-owner, or an owner swimming in an ocean of copium. Making the "BuT uNlOcKeD eCu" or...

Is OP's car a manual or auto? Just remember that at least one center console trim panels may not fit correctly if they're not from the same transmission option..

I think I'll be caving and picking one up at some point as well.

It's a rigimaroll, but you could get a suction-cup roof rack and strap it up there..

What spare setup do you have? A full-size wheel & tire, or one of these? https://modernspare.com/product/2019-2024-toyota-supra-spare-tire-kit-options/

Regarding storage, I am extremely satisfied with this thing...

Post a photo of the actual window sticker, or you can give me the VIN so I can retrieve it. It still sounds like a solid deal, and at least you're not upside down on the trade-in.

Factory paint protection film? What's the MSRP on the window sticker? All-in, true "out the door" price with taxes & fees, that amount doesn't sound too bad in today's market.

You'll want the MT's 3:46 rear diff too. It would be a complete DOG with the 3:15. Trans, driveshaft, and diff, new from Toyota, you're looking at about $8,000 right there. The entire center console is different, and the clutch pedal, hydraulics (need a new master cylinder reservoir, etc)...

My point exactly. When the DOT tests and certifies the sound level, it's done under lab/repeatable conditions, and performed the same for EVERY vehicle. There's specific throttle levels and rpm sweep, done under an acceleration load to a certain speed. The greatest modern example of how this...

Not what I did to it (not here yet), but what I got for it (already had fob covers). Only some people will understand the what and why ;) FYI, I had to order it from Japan, and not joking, it took exactly two weeks to arrive!

Ethanol is notoriously a little harder to start, especially in temps below freezing. In winter, the FlexFuel GM trucks crank much longer and idle rough for the first 10-20 seconds if E85 is in the tank. It doesn't vaporize well at cold temps, so liquid fuel is in the combustion chamber.

Post a closeup of the curb rash, and a price.
