This is what baffles me. Th sonly way to reasonably get a BRZ (at least in Texas) it seems is to go through Heuberger and bring it in. So many dealers still stuck with 2013s because they won't budge....

This is the one thing that makes no sense to me. On the base FR-S you're not getting a whole lot of modern stuff for your money. You end up paying a LOT for the fact that it's cool and popular. I can...

Yep they're there. I've seen em on the lots. I know Gulf States Toyota (Texas and OK) and Southeast Toyota (FL GA etc) and California have them on the lots.

Did this happen in the complexes right across from UCI? I used to live around there before moving to Texas. The college kids can be annoying.

You won't really find any with 6000k strips or anything. That's too high in the spectrum for most OEMs they tend to do 4500 or 5000k. That's around the "pure white" point, they start to get a hint of...

Unless you like the look you don't "need" the headlights.

You're going to need the front turn signals if you switch the lights, so you're going to have to wire those up somehow.

Age won't affect it quite as much as a female. It's the "lapse" that's killing her. She's considered to have had no insurance, even though she didn't have a car. I've seen it happen to people who let...

That makes sense. There was no chance that damage came anywhere near costing enough for the insurance company to total the car.

Someone made a template for the tow hook cover to dremel out the hole so that you can put back on the tow hook cover and then screw the plate bracket in, so that the inside isn't exposed.

If you hover over the [1] it says that is the installed MSRP. So you're paying for the springs, plus labor, since these are dealer installed.

Eibach. I'm betting since the MSRP on the springs is 249 that the 600+ MSRP for them includes the price of install, which is about right. Many shops I know charge 3-400 to install springs.

I bet they're 639 MSRP because its the 200 something plus install cost of a few hundred.

That would make sense
