You're on crack if you think that's even remotely true.

How many Turbo 86's are (or should that read, were) there in Oz?

So assuming there's only one. Everyone that's installed a turbo has been rear-ended by a skyline. I think I'll stay NA :-P

that pic makes me so sad.

Not to mention the spare wheel. Those things are so expensive Toyota cant get them any more.

They will pay blue book which is not always the pay off amount. That's what gap coverage is, it will pay the difference.

In Australia, they will replace a vehicle less then 2 years old with a new identical vehicle.
