Too lazy to find a previous post about this.


So, he said base price is 40k and it will option up to the 50s. Then he said they were working on a more spartan work truck variant. Not clear to me if that work truck is what they're targeting as 40k or it would be even less. 40k for that is a non-starter in my book, I think this will be a Fisker.

It does feel like a tough sell in the 40-50k range. Though, I'd guess that if you do get a run down of comparables it's decently competitive for personal/private use. Especially for cities/urban environments. That said, a commercial/fleet trim seems like it would have much more potential for the same downtown/city/urban areas.

$40k? Failure.

Saw this the other day. Didn't see the front for anything else it might have had going on, but it definitely sounded a lot better than a normal one.

Like a modified Macan? I don't know how I feel about that bumper on a Porsche
Yeah, like they were in the middle of making mods. I initially thought there was no bumper, but is see that super slim thing on there. I’m not a fan of it all exposed like that. Could at least do with some kind of shield/covering.

Saw a Maclaren 720S today in my area. Fairly atypical to see something like that out. I did see what I'm pretty sure was a GT2RS a couple months ago as well.

This looks about right

McLarens are gorgeous cars, I especially like the long tails. It’s a shame they don’t sound so great when driving, they have really muted exhaust notes.

That didn't last long, why?


GTI warranty was running out and I just kept having so many issues with the car. I knew this one was going to cost me a lot of money in the end so I jumped ship. I didn't really want to buy another car but here we are.

Well, you picked a cool, fun car. Can’t really be too bummed out.

Id want one but I fear id feel almost as cramped as the miata.
The 86 feels much bigger than the Miata. I had one for about 5 years and it was a fun car. My wife bought a new Miata last year and it's just not as fun to drive, terrible stereo and info system, terrible ergonomics, and seating feels much tighter and smaller. I rarely driver it. The only positives for the Miata are the red paint and nicer wheels and I guess the convertible top.

I'm actually really happy with what I got price and warranty wise. Paying just a bit more and got a really nice warranty since it was a Toyota Corporate Lease, they basically gave me another 60k and I sprung for the extended capping it at 100k.

If you want a Toyota in DFW definitely shoot for Toyota of Plano, since it's next to the corporate office they get a lot of corporate leases on the lot with really good warranty compared to others.

The GR Corolla was really nice to drive as well but I find the looks a bit odd, once I drove 86 after I knew it was the better choice.
