This car will make 200 wheel with almost $2,500 worth of mods. Maybe then I can beat that minivan.

I am trying to fight Toyota on a warranty claim and am trying to gather some good background on the issue.

What I am not telling all of you is the extensive modifications I have that directly affect my issue

I am new to driving and have no idea what the fuss is all about with this car. But everybody is praising it, so I am also gonna say, "it's a driver's car" to all.

Instead of slapping FI, coilovers, wheels and tires on the car I should have just bought a used Cayman S.

I'm totally anal about keeping my car in perfect condition, it's a garage queen.

I would never consider being careless with it, like pretending it's a 4wd vehicle.

Can't understand what happened to the front skid plate and oil pan, geez, I just ran over a tiny bird one day.

I shouldn't have lowered the car because now I can't leave my driveway without scraping my Rocket Bunny body kit.
