While I had an emotional reaction to paying over msrp, my emotions mean fuck nothing compared to the laws of supply and demand. The auto production market and used auto market is a different animal than it was pre Covid(and has likely changed the production model forever). With parts shortages...

After seeing a huge variance on different dynos of the same car, I think theres a misconception of what a "dyno number" really is. It is an indispensable tool for plotting gains on the same car during modification or diagnosing issues but a poor extrapolation for a "universal value". We do know...
I was ecstatic when i heard they were coming out with a manual finally....then ALMOST as excited again when I heard they had a color coming out close to one of the few cars I regret selling, a Grigio Telesto LP640. It has so much variation depending on the lighting
