I don't think suspension/tires/wheels/exhaust/etc. would really hurt your warranty.

I very much doubt that I could leave the engine alone. My dad's turbo FRS was ... until it got totalled by a freak hail storm.

Keeping the warranty on that thing is gonna be nearly impossible for me. I suppose I should look into it more.

Also no driver assist stuff on which is

As someone who goes on 1000 mile trips a few times a year... me.

My fiancée’s dad just bought a MINT ‘02 Z06… and I’m jealous. It’s not that I’m getting rid of the fun… the idea is to have a comfy daily that I don’t mind dumping miles into plus a more purpose build NB miata or something. The more I drive to work every day, the more I realize I want something new...

I just have more :poop: to haul around these days and a miata / FRZ86 type thing isn’t cutting it at all. May I introduce you to your lord and savior, the Corvette? :iono: not trying to be condescending by any means, you seem like a dude that's wise beyond your years BUT I would encourage you to no...

I’m trying to ignore the new 86 and think “NO, need four doors. FOUR. DOORS.” It’s hard.

do you need four doors?

I just have more to haul around these days and a miata / FRZ86 type thing isn’t cutting it at all.

Yeah, post the Miata here if you decide to move on and need to find a buyer. A car that’s been cleaned behind the taillights is rare. It definitely needs another deep clean at this point. It’s been my daily for quite a while now and I need to get a couple buddies together for a teardown detail befo...

I’m trying to ignore the new 86 and think “NO, need four doors. FOUR. DOORS.” It’s hard. Give me a shout if your friend doesn't end up buying it. Wifey wants a 'vert for our weekend whip and a solid NC with a good history would fit the bill pretty nicely. Not sure on timing on our end, but it may w...

Dumping is 100% not the right word. Moving on? Very, very likely. I have a close friend who has agreed to buy it, assuming he can get the cash together. I give that about a 90% chance of working out. He’s been set on finding a nice NC for quite a while now. He gets to know everything about the car ...

Also I went and test drove a Mazda3 today. It was a hatchback, premium, manual, polymetal grey over black. It was a nice little car, especially for the price. At first I didn’t like the manual, but then I realized that I’m just spoiled by the feel and feedback from :cheese: :manuel: . I need to mak...

:notbad: honestly. I am intrigued with the next gen Si, Type R, and Integra :popcorn: New Acura products seem legit :notbad: :popcorn: on the Integra for sure. Interesting that there's a business case for a such a vehicle these days. A compact premium car just seems dead, hopefully it's good and se...

I kind of like the base civic hatch with the NA (k20) motor. 158 hp of pure linear fury, and probably the most reliable thing they produce at Honda. The LX was around 23k. :notbad: I agree but it would have to be a :manuel: for me... CVT with some gutless-ish motor is a :nope: I weirdly sort of cov...

New Civic Hatch with the 1.5T and the 6 speed could be promising

Yeah, a DSG GSW with an IS20 and ECU+TCU tunes is appealing from an enthusiast perspective. Hard to say whether it would really be worth all the extra cash. Similarly, an Abarf auto with a rear seat delete might be great for half the price... or maybe an i3 of sorts. Veloster N still exists and als...

Duplicate post. Nice. How bout that. Ignore me.

:eyeroll: That is sad about the test drive thing... but I can't really blame them. I bet most people who want a BRZ know what they want spec-wise, and it's costly to have inventory. I think I would actually buy a GR86 without a test drive, based on the reviews. I've driven gen 1 enough to know what...

Intriguing... I'd swap out those wheels in 2 seconds flat but other than that, not bad! It's a shame that the F36 (4 gran coupe) didn't have a manual option.

This is one hell of a car

:wat: never thought I’d hear someone call a lotus a POS… what reasons did he cite? Something about the radio not always working, and then his biggest complaint was the door filling up with water when it rained. If it were mine, I'd probably learn to live with the radio thing but water pooling? :wtf:

I have huge respect for anyone who will put 84,800 miles on a Lotus. Especially since it's 1 owner car. Yeah I saw my friend who had an Evora 400 over the weekend and he said it was honestly a POS. great driving car, but built a bit worse than you actually expect. :wat: never thought I’d hear someo...

Thoughts on the '22 GLI? Looks like dealers will get em in November. I think VW made fewer mistakes with this one than with the new GTI. caranddriver.com/photos/g37367571/2022-volkswagen-jetta-jetta-gli-revealed-gallery/ I think it’s uglier and has that new steering wheel with capacitive bullshit I...
