Glad to hear they’re actually good since they are quite :waxer: They don’t qualify for the tax credit anymore either No, but the manufacturer is offering $7500 lease cash to offset it. Leases only. I have a Prius Prime coming next week and get a $4500 lease credit. I think I’ll end up buying it out...

You do one of two things: 1: Have a lawyer take care of it for you. 2: Wait until day 31, call BMW and tell them you want the car bought back and work directly with them. option 2.5: if you actually like the car, negotiate a significant cash settlement to keep the car. If you go this route, if you ...

If anyone has experience with lemon law please chime in.

Nothing will happen until day 30. After 30 days you can push the issue further if they still have the car. Until then, you've been provided like transportation and minimized inconvenience. If the car is finished in less than 30 days you'll likely be offered compensation of 1-2 lease payments (or eq...

:disappoint: Have you contacted BMW corporate yet? Yes... Bmw Corportate - "we can't do anything until you get the car back" Dealer 1 - which is 40 miles from my house where we got the car is also involved... (The sales dude is asking for the RO#, to take it up to his GM) Dealer 2 - which...

How does it work at Porsche again … is the allocation for any non “GTx” 911 and customers can customize to their liking or is it for a “pre spec’ed” car We sell allocations for true custom builds. Even for GT/specialty product (but that’s a separate list to get on). In the before times, if we had n...

We received 14 992 allocations today. We have waiting lists 9+ months out. It took 40 phone calls to place the 14 cars, people backing out like crazy. :doomed: thats really not a great sign. I'm sure you sold em all, but a year ago would 14 calls would have yielded 14 PO's? Last month 11 cars to 11...

I did. They do take forever but what's an extra week when I'm keeping the car a long time. Rav definitely isn't going anywhere. It'll be my TSX. It also doesn't help I had such an awful experience with the insurance recommended shop on my Mk6. I've had bad luck with nearly every shop I've ever used...

Even though i'm just lurking anymore, put me down for a 2023 Prius Prime. 9/14.

This is awesome.

If anyone is interested, I have a set of 4 Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires in the 18" size available. Maybe all of 1500 highway cruising miles on them, 9/32" all around. Used them as "winters" for two months when I had the car. $600 shipped for the set. $500 local pickup ...

I did this a few weeks ago. Still too cold and shitty to ride it, but the roads are lethal around here and there’s a bit of gravel close by to ride out and lap. https://i.postimg.cc/bdhcPhyk/4-F936-B4-E-7717-40-BD-B0-D3-D357-B202-A8-C4.jpg You take this sweet rig out yet? You could probably ride mu...

I’m slightly frustrated at the lack of trailer hitch options for the 86 which I didn’t realize going into it. Itching to get a hitch so I can access more of the local mountain biking. http://www.slambertperformance.com/shop/twin-hitch this installs into the rear tow hook mounts. You pop the covers ...

Good news, I made it back home alive. Turns out that my friends are really friends. I don't know how I managed it but I somehow have some real friends now and it's pretty nice. Also I don't look that bad in a swimsuit but that's a story for another day. This is awesome. Congrats, and having just pi...

I was really disappointed with the Trek sale. Cannondale has a bunch of stuff on close out and good prices. I couldn’t find a medium Topstone in a color that wasn’t black anywhere, so went with the Grizl.

Jeep continues to Jeep. I decided it needed to look more like a Subaru, so this was wifey’s birthday present. Came out way better than I’d hoped.

I'll second this. My Corolla Hybrid was the ultimate commuter hybrid appliance (until the new Prius just launched). I think the Corolla Cross is available as a hybrid now, and I'd give that a solid look. The Prius has my attention but dealers that have them seem to be marking them up, and it’s more...

One of the engineering managers at my job was just promoted and his position is going to become available. I’m apparently a front runner for it. I think I’ll apply but if I get the job I will need to purchase a car asap, since the work location is a 30 minute to 1 he drive from where I live now. Tr...

that's disappointing. I am half ass considering one of these as my cool dad car in the next handful of years I think it works as a collector car … but I think it completely fails the “affordable, practical, hot hatch” ethos. Now note, I didn’t drive one … but I’m sure it drives to expectation. I'm ...

Not true at all. Dealerships don't lose money. We just don't make as much - we can't set our own pricing like we can with customer pay repairs. I clarified that a couple posts up. I just worded it incorrectly the first time. and of course I just read that as I continued to read. I'll go back to my ...

First! I did a thing. 1. D Griff - 2/11/2023 - 2023 Toyota GR86 10AE Congrats! That thing is fucking awesome! If you need some "winter" tires - I have a set of Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4's you can have for cheap.50 - there's maybe 1500 miles and 9/32" rubber left. I might have...

Any slidey boi action yet? Just some really minor doriftos coming out of roundabouts. These PS4s are pretty damn sticky, and given the thing isn't super powerful there's not a lot of power oversteer going on even with the nannies fully off. I need to do an autox or something. I have a near new set ...
