I love the driveway mod in the second pic. I wish my place in Chinatown had that.

I insure 5 cars, including a few with full coverage, all of them sports cars, and live in LA. I only pay $181/month. But it’s with USAA, so all I can recommend is to join the military or marry into it?

My BRZ has different color front and rear seats. The rear are black, the fronts are red with black centers. I think early CRZ’s had the fronts in grey, the rears in black. On lower end cars, it’s the manufacturer being cheap, on higher end cars, it’s an attempt to visually wrap the sides of the interior around the…

You mean a fleet of corrosion in various stages of Jeep.

I love USAA. I too live in LA, have an ‘18 BRZ tS, ‘85 AE86 GT-S, ‘77 280Z, ‘91 Supra, and ‘89 240SX, and pay $1440/yr.

You can get it on the Toyota 86 in the US. It’s called “Thunder” here.

“Real “special edition” cars require a few key attributes to be worth our attention. Or at least, to be remembered fondly by history. A good place to start is a basis in a platform that’s popular to begin with (check) then you’ve got to have limited production numbers (also check) and of course, it’s actually got to…

“It also has an all-wheel drive ST1 drivetrain swap”

They are a collection of display vehicles that D’z Garage keeps setup outside, as part of the D’z gallery.

Yeah, they have a big collection of display cars. Generally, everything on that side of the building is display, out front is where the customers park.

“People were so unbelievably aggressive with us once we got north of irvine, just random fucking guys pining for a go and it was unnerving at times. People just see someone in a sportscar, supercar, musclecar and just assume that “hey they’re driving that, they must want to go”.”

I wish I had more stars to give, because yeah, if you have an older C-class in LA, people assume you are broke and bought a used Mercedes to hide it. Everyone here leases them new...

I wish my BRZ came in that color.

My biggest question regards the non-functional G-meter on my ‘18 BRZ.

Rental Dodge Stratus sneaks onto the track and jumps it at 1:23.

That’s actually the reason I like things like the Lightning and 454SS. They took “real trucks” and made them into horrible musclecars.

I don’t think it will stop being a suv/crossover.

Yes

That’s a good anecdote, however Detroit roads are about 20 years in the future of our current crumbling infrastructure. I went to college there and bent 4 wheels on my Toyota Supra turbo in 6 months. And that was eighteen years ago when the roads were in better shape.

Why not both? Please offer a shooting brake, please offer a shooting brake....
