What dealer is it at? See if it's listed for sale and tell us how much of a bath BMW took on it.

OT 21: DFD Giveth and DFD Taketh Away
Just decline. It's not reasonable to expect cousins to drop $2k to attend the wedding. I wouldn't spend that kind of money for a cousin's wedding.

:plac: finds v2.0: Moar gold on the crangslist
ND miata colors have been garbage, especially recently.
White, gray, black, red, primer, and sand? A dark, dark blue only on club?
Who is deciding sand, primer, and dark blue over a fun color?

I mean it’s cool but kinda excessive. I really don’t get that trim level. It’s has the m motor … but it’s detuned … m badging all over the place … it’s over 100k msrp … but it’s not an XM5 A horrendous fam car imo from a cost of ownership perspective when you have a great B58 powered X5 for like 65...

That's a really good over rev report, from what I'm seeing? I tried to google it as I am no P car expert, it seems like level 4 is already bad? but I could be wrong. Also what a weird thing to track. It's 4 revolutions at level 4. That's nothing. 23 at range 2 is also insanely low is how I'm interp...

Turn Signals Optional: Gberg’s M3
I loved the AS3+ tires I had on the MK7. Quiet, good grip for a no-season, and really good steering feel compared to something like a DWS with super squishy sidewalls. The ones on the 86 are meh. They're super loud IMO, and maybe it's more suspension than tires but I still think this car rides like...

General Economic chit chat/updates.
So you're acknowledging that you live in one of the best places (which I'd agree with). You pay for that privilege. Nothing really new here, life is all about compromise. We have a tiny house on the worst street in our neighborhood, because we wanted to live in this area. FL people are also kind of...

:lolol: but cruicialy not 4x or 10x as you stated 2 posts above. I'm not saying its good, but its not as extreme as you imply. It depends on area too… some areas went through extreme price appreciation while others are down. Ex Ohio is likely in line with historicals or down . This is what I imagin...

:iono: I like the 86 more. I would love to try them back to back, but I’ve driven a manual ND, rented an auto ND and manual Fiata and put a couple hundred miles on each. Maybe I just don’t fit well enough in a Miata to be in love, but they’re just so rolly from the factory. Saying one is a gt3 rs a...

It’s been exceedingly stressful The deck is 2 years old and was a selling point of the house. It looked great when we moved in. Now boards are actually rotting and many have warped. It looks like total shit. Every “upgrade” the prior owners did caused major damage to the home. This is the case with...

I will say, the ND does kind of stomp the BRZ86 in that way. Everyone acts like they're basically the same, but the gap between the miata and BRZ is about the same as the gap between the BRZ and the rest of it's competitors. I'm praying the NE stays the same weight as the ND, has 1-2" more inch...
