I'm seeing a lot of people say that the HP is most likely underrated and the 335HP is most likely at the wheels. This would make sense as it's reported 4.1 second 0-60 time seems a bit low for 335HP...

Yeah but that's a Porsche. By the sounds of it this is a BMW with some Toyota skin on it.

The seating position in that looks insane, they really went for a as close to a formula 1 car on the street as you can. Plus a 10k+ red line, crazy.

If I am not mistaken the Recaros in the RS are the only option. I think the optional RS2 package has different material on them but are still the same seats. The main problem that I see is when you...

I work from home but my area is a lot of starts and stops. I'd say those 9k miles were roughly 60% city 40% highway. I am going to ask them to check the alignment when I get the new set put on.

Never been tracked and I would say I drive slightly spirited. The roads in western PA are pretty windy and very low surface quality due to the winters. I think they told me the tread was at 3/32.
