In case someone is still interested, just had my BMW spec PS 4S’s delivered (275/35/R19) and can confirm the tread is 9.8” (or damn close).

Soft paint

Back in early 2020 it was ridiculous for me with ppl taking videos, pictures, asking to see it, endless stories. Actually got annoying as hell- felt like I couldn’t leave it anywhere. But my favorite experience was about 2 months ago this guy with a brand new white C8 convertible was clearly...

My 2020 has had a few rough starts where it cranked much longer than normal and then idled rough for 3s or so. Each time is was either sitting for several days or the weather had significantly changed. I’m stock other than a JB4. Hasn’t happened enough for me to worry about though.

Looks great! Love the sticker too!

I’m an engineer that works extensively with composites & plastics. I doubt this will completely go away once unloaded. Under stress, polymers exhibit what’s called creep over time (metals do this too but only at high temperatures ). My guess is they will have to replace the hatch to fix this...

Scratch that. Came back about 15 min later and it was there. Good news!

So just checked my 2020 and while I now get prompted to enable CarPlay, it’s still not showing up on the media panel... I tried adding though the iOS menu too and no luck. Strange.

Just got off the phone with corporate Toyota and they did admit that it is a known problem and many owners are experiencing this. She said they do not yet have a fix and just advised me to go to the dealer. Obviously, there is no point in going to the dealer yet.

I’m thinking you never actually lost CarPlay (probably got stuck on Supra Connect). This was one of the first things I tried and it did nothing for me.

If I’m understanding what you did, this used to happen to me about once every two weeks- It would switch over to Supra Connect for some reason and I would have to go back and switch it. But this is different. On my car, I don’t see CarPlay or Supra Connect. It’s just gone.

This is funny, looks like MS added CarPlay to Teams today. I do have a corporate phone and we use Teams. Can’t possibly be this though. https://www.macrumors.com/2020/12/01/microsoft-teams-carplay-integration/

Same here! Wasted better part of an hour messing with this. Had my oil change notice appear today as well and even cleared that out thinking it may have been a bug...

Wow! Second set of plugs on a 2020 seems a bit extreme! Did you torque them down properly?

I’m thinking anti-seize too

I have serious concerns about the quality control on the new Vette. Saw one last weekend and it looked amazing and the specs are great. But this is a major redesign and I’d bet it takes a couple years for them to get the worst of the bugs worked out. One thing I really like about the Supra is...

I pulled my passengers seat out to clean the Belgian Triple beer that sprayed from the can after It rolled out of the grocery bag and under the seat.. smelled horrible and totally sucked. Lesson learned- put groceries in the hatch and secure it.

Sport mode exclusively. Only time it comes off is when my oldest daughter asks for “sporty” mode to go off when I’m dropping her off at school (wants it quiet). As an engineer, yes, the engine/tranny are seeing higher stresses in sport mode. But isn’t this why you bought it? Sports cars are...

I was able to test drive. What really blew me away was that bc of the damn virus, I was allowed to take it without the salesman! He just recommended a route, pulled it around and handed me the keys.

Wow, couldn’t disagree more. I think the BMW controls are great, wireless CarPlay is fantastic, decent seats, etc.. But, I see you also posted that you were considering “rejecting” the car based on the sound system. To me, if I wanted a ton of luxury and a perfect sound system, you don’t buy a...
