Thanks for the info. The dealer (Lotus of North Jersey) I'm trading the Supra too is getting the Emira this Saturday. So my plan is to go and check it and trade them the Supra while I'm there, assuming the Emira is my cup of tea. Interesting about the exterior...because it does look sexy in...

Crap. I'm doing the same this weekend (trading Supra on Emira). What didn't you like about it? I haven't seen one in person yet.

Diminished value claim.

Got email confirmation about MSRP. Have to ask about their allocation and where I am on the list. Don't really care...they can just cut me a check for $58k if they prefer, haha.

Good points. I guess I take most of the "I'm worried to valet my car" statements as more "I'm worried the valet will intentionally abuse it" versus the reasons you listed. If it helps, think of how much practice valets get parking in the same spots over and over. They are probably much more...

I'm of similar mindset. I have a friend who buys about a half dozen exotics a year, and at any given time has $2 million plus of cars in his garage. Won't drive them if there is rain forecasted within 100 miles. Carries detailing clothes in them to open the frunk or otherwise touch the car...

This is kind of funny...a fully optioned MDX is more expensive than a fully optioned Supra.

I've let valets park my R8 and my Evora 400. Never had an issue. Could something bad happen? Sure. But most places with valet parking have some check and balance on the valets because they know they will be driving some expensive cars. Tip the valet nicely when he takes your car and they...

Same here man. I just got off the phone with Lotus of North Jersey. They offered me $58k on a trade, sight unseen, for the Supra. They want the factory exhaust back on it, so I can unload the Armytrix exhaust and JB4 for relatively cheap and walk away with $60k plus get trade credit towards...

Evora 400 or Evora GT? I had an Evora 400 before the Supra and the Supra is a lot more car than the Evora, except in the handling department (the Evora 400/410/430/GT line is probably the best handling car on the planet). That being said...who offered you $60k on a trade for your Supra? If...

That's sharp.

It's true though. There is a small niche of women that are actually into cars. But generally speaking, if you're buying a car to attract women, sports/supercars are useless. You're far better off buying a motorcycle or a puppy if that's the goal. Take notice from now on...the people staring...

All cars are sausage magnets. Women don't care about sports or exotic cars. Men Children Elderly Women That's who looks at them.

Elon Putin, Jeff Khrushchev, AND Mark Gorbachev all putting work in?

LOL, well done and thank you. So if I asked for the teenager version, would I get a basic understanding of the slightly more complicated part? Is it basically like this...? Some Russian version of Elon Musk managed to find a way to crack the ECU. So Elon Putin now takes wholesale orders from...

What's the significance of Russia here? Did some technowizard over there crack this and they are the only ones on the entire planet to figure it out and no one else is close behind? Someone explain it like I'm 5 please..

Thermal orange was the other color I was considering. I love that color!!!

Yep. Acura/Honda is making 350 Type S models worldwide and 300 of them are coming to the USA. All 300 were spoken for within 24 hours. Kind of crazy seeing as how Acura only sold more than 300 NSX's once since 2017. They normally only sell 5-15 units a month. I ordered mine in early March...

I obviously agree!

I find it interesting that both cars tend to get no love from a lot of people that loved the previous generation of each car. But a LOT of love from people that aren't really that into cars. The Supra gets the BMW traitor comments. And the NSX gets the "betraying the lightness/simplicity of...
