that is an epic collection you got there.

Do it, it’s amazing. Sounds stock if you don’t stomp the gas, sounds like a beast if you do. I considered going ITB, but ended up going with FIPK because daily driver...no regrets. I’ve been looking for a good exhaust that does the same thing (stock unless you stomp), but they’re all really louder than I’d like.

Nope, shiny didn’t come out ‘till just a couple months ago...that picture is over a year old. Going to make the next one shiny.

You wouldn’t be impressed with this one up close. I didn’t do a good enough job cleaning around the license plate in back, and, since it was my first time using a paint sprayer, there’s some hefty orange peel in large areas. I think I’ve got the technique down now though, and since they’ve got a high gloss, I’m going

Thanks!

Price. Including all the tooling I spent less than $600. As such, I really don’t care that it’s got several scratches since I sprayed it...they’re scratches that aren’t in the paint that would have been.

$178k is painful, but automatic? That’s a non-starter.

Dipped mine about a year ago, I highly recommend. If you’re strapped for space, google “phoenix chameleon s2000” and check out the tent I used. Going to peel and dip again soon.

I live on the island of Austin, I’d leave, but swimming past the lost city of Dallas would probably get me killed.

This entire list is a list of shattered dreams.

Don’t tell me that, it just makes me sadder...next you’ll tell me the convertible was prettier and sacrificed little to no rigidity.

Throwing in a post for the Jeep Hurricane minus the cruft of the rest of Chrysler.

I vaguely remember Viper. Didn’t it have some sort of crazy off-road mode that made the tires huge?

I agree with the rest of your points, but I think the idea behind this is that the energy required to do this motion is more efficient than rotating the entire panel. If it wasn’t, then claiming this is more efficient than existing panels is disingenuous.

No Miata? Or any 2-door convertible? I would expect a wagon to be halfway decent at towing small to medium loads, but sports cars should be right up there with the Gold Wing.

Honda Accord Coupe (mine was a 2000). I towed boats, bobcats, jetskis, and yards of dirt. Without fail, I was laughed at when people initially saw me, but it has the capability, and the low car made it super easy to back things up quickly and accurately. Bros towing their bro boats would take 10-15 minutes on the

No, but I hear they installed Doom in the bananas.

If it’s any consolation, I drive an S2000 and had a Miata owner roll up and ask me which year Miata it was and where I got the body kit for it. I had no response...just stared at him through the whole red light.
