That rear wing is the factory Toyota wing for the 1998 to 2000 MY MR2's they weren't too expensive when I bought mine but like everything they've gone up in price significantly. GramCracker posted:How do you like the wilwoods? Any plans to upgrade the rear caliper to something slightly beefier? They are nice to work on apart from being fully imperial, the car hasn't been used in anger at all so I won't know how good they are for a while. I do have the full rear kit, but I need to get a wilwood handbrake caliper to go alongside the upgraded rear one and I may need to get a different MC as some people have reported very squishy pedal feel with the full kit.

Not my ride, but I just drove my dad's new ride home... bought it 2 1/2 hours away, it's a nice car. 2016 Lexus RC350 F-Sport AWD. In my driveway, it strikes me like a large BRZ. First time there's been no cars with a manual transmission in our family ever.

It's got the same atrocious wheel gap that a BRZ has, but honestly, an E9x M3 is actually the large BRZ

  Cruised down to a local rotary/old Mazda enthusiasts place today to get a last few pieces I need for my manual swap, did a little group shot of his newest stuff (mine is the gold RX-7). That 1200 has only 23k km! Love this guys collection, and it was a beautiful day to cruise with the top off. e: sorry for huge phone pics hot cocoa on the couch fucked around with this message at 02:27 on May 16, 2021 |

It's pretty slick looking and I'm currently trying to convince a buddy of mine to at least check out the (now defunct) RC 200t over an Acura ILX of the same vintage. I didn't even notice it as dickish. I think it needs a few mm of spacers more than gap reduction, though. I never really paid attention to the recent Lexus lineup, I didn't know the RC 200t was a thing. Looks like a quick chip upgrade and it's basically as strong as the RC 350... but looking at what's available, they're about the same price, so I don't see the draw. The one dad got is AWD, which is kind of a shame... AWD is slower with a 6 speed transmission versus the 8 speed on the RWD. Plus, RWD. meatpimp fucked around with this message at 15:08 on May 17, 2021 |

The answer is SUVs and trucks. Everything had to get taller so you don't get murdered by them in even a mild accident. I have accepted my Miata is a deathtrap.

I sold my miata when the driver of one of these fuckers didn't see me and tried to merge lanes right where I was:  The pics don't quite do it justice, but that swirl scrape is where the wheel nuts made contact just before I swerved out of the way.

Weather finally broke, tires are fresh and new, and its pollen season so lol @ doing anything other than giving it a quick rinse off before saturday morning coffee.  Warm and overcast. Perfect day down by the water for a drive.

I traded in my Kia Optima on a new Mazda 3 Turbo. It is by far the nicest car I have ever owned. White exterior/beige interior, because there's only 1 red turbo 3 within 50 miles from me in a very healthy region for Mazda, and that car had the options package I didn't want. Went with the sedan because rear visibility is more important to me than the more practical cargo hold of the hatchback.

This gen is one of the rare times where I'd rather have the sedan over the hatch.

I actually prefer the look of the hatchback slightly more than the sedan, but not enough to justify paying $3k more for an otherwise identical car.

Weird that there is a price difference - they're the same price here. Top Skyactiv-X trim is hatch only but that's no great loss.
