It was actually my mom that inadvertently showed me this car... lol

Long story short: mom went in to get her RAV4 checked, showed me this car but we didn't know anything about it other than "it looks cute and something your dad would like as a retirement vehicle", I picked up the brochure in the showroom, did research, rest is history. xD

People ask me why I haven't bought aftermarket wheels yet. I reply with: because so many non-car owners think they are ugly, less chance of someone stealing them or messing with the car in general.

I'm struggling too, imo combination of a flywheel that's neither heavy nor light, drive-by-wire throttle and a clutch with low feedback.

*cue @Ultramaroon linking me to his clutch modifications thread for the 10th time which is perfect for this thread*

hey ASSETTO GARA
Fuchsia Painted
for $99 a wheel. Can't beat that, plus pink.

If you are really interested in wheels, the wheel and tire guide in the wheel section is absurdly phenomenal.

"Kinda wish the car had sound dampening.." <---- me


but only on long drives where the roads aren't smooth! I'm partially deaf currently. Otherwise, I don't mind it at all.
