To be completely honest I wouldn't want to pay any more for a launch edition than a normal premium. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see the launch editions holding value any better than other premiums. I just don't think there's enough different about them to make them worth it. To be completely...

I'm sure there are people that have justified the Subaru/Toyota collab yet critique the BMW/Toyota collab. I was mainly referring to people who are complaining about no manual and price. Those things have nothing to do with looks if we are strictly concerned about visuals. Obviously those come...

We also have to consider that the people replying to the poll are also inherently biased on factors besides looks. My guess is that the Z will probably still win on sales numbers if they achieve what they are targeting, price especially. Although I'm not a fan of the looks (so far), I can't...

Ooof, not a fan of the Z. Too square on the front end and I don't like that rear end personally. Interior actually looks pretty nice except for the perforated seats. If you can get alcantara or leather seats on the Z, I'd say it's good for the projected price. Body-wise, I like the Supra much...

Maybe I'm paranoid, but I feel like OTA from Tesla is a bit like them pulling the wool over the eyes. They are trying to treat their cars like software, where the driver doesn't necessarily "own" the car, but is licensed to drive it. I'm not saying that they are directly related, but I'm just...

I felt the grid restart felt kinda artificial. I like keeping the standing start exclusive to the actual start of the race, but that's just me. I can see how red flag tire changes look like an advantage, but we have to look at it compared to how advantages unfold during a normal safety car. I'm...

Thanks for the links. Here's hoping that they can keep the costs down then. I guess I'll be waiting a few years to determine what I trade into next.

While I doubt it will happen, maybe Toyota will learn from this venture and decide to build an A100 in house. My concern is if they would actually put in a V6 hybrid powertrain instead of a 4 cylinder, assuming they are pulling engines from their own inventory. Maybe they'll jump ship to...

One of Albon's videos from the Supra rebuild actually showed that the LED "strip" in the headlights is actually a fiber optic channel or something like that. The white and orange LEDs are actually in a module that sits behind the headlight and shines into one end of strip and that lights up the...

I guess the extra money Ferrari gets for being a heritage team isn't helping them out much. On a semi-related note, F1 needs to admit that the hybrids were a bad idea cost and development-wise. I'm a big Lewis/Mercedes fan, but they got so far ahead on the engine development that no one else is...

Looks great! Agreed that this is one of the best "yellow" cars, takes well to any black/carbon fiber additions.

I get what you're saying. I'd have to recheck, but I think I tend to shift around 6500 and it drops into the torque band pretty well. I'm not doing any HPDE though, so I would say I have room to improve.

It's not necessarily a straightforward answer, any hard accel you're going to blow through gears up to 3rd anyways. The answer is also going to depend on available traction, are you going in a straight line, etc. Also I wouldn't trust just one single dyno chart. The redline is at 7k, that's...

In my opinion, I think it is overall better, especially if you want to listen to music and be in sport mode. It's easy enough to revert that I would recommend anyone to just try it for a few days and go from there.

Hopefully the result of the claim is to your liking. I can't imagine having to deal with all of this. I don't blame you for taking your time with replacing. Whatever you do end up getting as a replacement we hope you'll have better luck. Glad that you are physically ok.

Appreciate the guide here. One thing that I messed up at first is that you actually have to pull off another layer of trim that is further up the hatch in order to reveal the torx screws highlighted by "1." I believe that this piece is what they called the deck side trim cover in the...

Even if the Z outsells the Supra, Nissan/Infiniti still have a massive uphill battle to get out of this hole long-term. As F1 mentioned, Nissan/Infiniti brand reputation has absolutely tanked over the past decade. They need to prove their worth again, and that's not easy when Toyota/Honda...

And I 100% agree that the 2.0 Supra is not a good buy. Definitely would go with the Z over the 2.0 Supra if I could absolutely not stretch for the 3.0

I totally respect this viewpoint, and I agree with it in alot of situations, however with sports cars I think that people probably value brand/nameplates alot more, especially with sports cars. "Value" of a car is still often subjective because time has shown us that it's very difficult to make...

I'm also a big Hamilton fan since his rookie season with McLaren and Mercedes fan by extension of them previously powering McLaren cars. Was glad to see him recover from last week. Penalty was fair enough, but Albon appeared to have at least a few feet to his left to avoid clipping Lewis, but...
