Interesting Car Spotted Thread
Believe it or not they’re pretty much a daily sighting in my area (McLarens, I don’t know what the specific models are) but they still turn my head. The cool thing is they seem to be the super cars that people actually drive frequently . :impressive: that they're common by you. Man, I remember when...

I think the fact that both dudes here who bought these are dumping them is also giving me pause :lolol: I would buy one again tomorrow. Right car, wrong time and application. It’s not often one can drive a sports car that isn’t a 911 for 12k miles and make money on the back end even with damage. Th...

You sold the 86? Got an offer you couldn’t refuse? I think more like a commute he couldn't refuse. But I'm sure he was able to pull nearly $40K for the 86, that's the world we live in. I took 34 for it without having to fix any of the damage. Factoring in the sales tax credit for trading i didnt do...

86 officially gone. Frontier averaged 23.2 on the drive home. Rides great and much smoother than the TRDOR Taco. 9speed shifts smoothly and feels good. Seats are borderline great, although the lack of telescoping steering wheel is a bit of a bummer. Sound system is the premium Fender audio and kick...

86 is gone. Last night was the last straw after getting a large chunk of blown tire thrown at me on the highway. Clear bra paid for itself but as a commuter it’s got to go. In the last few weeks it’s been hit in the rear, cracked the windshield and now this mess with the fender liner. I’m going to ...

You can quickly unplug the fake noise speaker by pulling the pass side dash end plate off. The control unit is the silver box in the big opening. The noise starts pumping in around 3500. The other thing is it comes alive north of 4k. That’s why When it’s in sport/track mode the dash shortens the ta...

yeah, it's minor. creased the bumper and bent the exhaust. Probably a $1200 fix but now it looks like she doesn't have valid insurance.

I get 27 MPG when i'm doing 70. 23 when i do 85 which is the flow of traffic.

I’m glad you’re driving it and warming up to it.
It’s so fun to drive at 9/10ths and up.
After having the original for 60k miles, this one is so much more fun, but it’s still happiest in the 4-7.5k rev range.

What tires did the factory slap on the thing? Tires are another item that can impact steering and the overall ride quality. Premium gets Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires in 215/40/18 size. The base car gets 215/45/17 Michelin Primacy summer tires which have much less grip and actually makes the car a l...

It's a great sports car. But daily driving a sports car kind of sucks. It's why I ordered a Maverick. It's not easy to live with. That said, you still haven't driven the thing. I promise you when you open it up and find some fun roads it will come alive for you. It's far more rewarding to drive than...

I got the VIN for the '86 today so I could let the insurance company know what I'm up to, but also decided to submit for a quote from Carvana just for fun. $38.2k. OTD price will be $33.8k after all taxes and fees. Not gonna lie, might flip it. I have turned down offers of $43 and $48k from custome...

We had a work event last week which included a near 150 mile backroad blast to a brunch event. I promise you that you’re going to love this car. It’s sublime. It takes everything that the first car lacked and fixes it… you can drive it at 9 or 10 tenths and still be in the realm of legality everywh...

My dealership group held its 12th annual road rally with about 120 miles of driving across southeastern PA. I snagged a spot alongside some nice sheetmetal. Wifey has no idea how to shoot/film cars but put this together after the event.

Looks nice in that color! I think so too. Everyone has a :boner: for Neptune but I'm super happy with Trueno. Would've taken either, but I'm not the least bit upset that Trueno is the color they got the allocation for. We had a work event last week which included a near 150 mile backroad blast to a...

Yes. I enquired about a 23 order and was told they had a few available units already locked in. I wound up getting a Frontier during their 99% Residual lease deals and was going to put an order in for a 23 Maverick Hybrid when the order books open as I'll have it until August of 23, but you have my...

GR86 is supposed to be here by the end of May. :popcorn: I told the :dillerman: I'd take Trueno or Neptune, I got Trueno.
