My guess on price would be just under the Lexus RC-F unless they go for more power/features.

Must be less than an entry level stingray <$60K

Check out this cool ad for the new Euro Honda Civic - two videos in one (hold the R key down to see the alternate video with the Type R, release to see the regular one).

That newly designed Type R sounds really promising.
Honda potential aftermarket + higher power platform = pretty good combination to me.
It also looks a lot better than the old one.

But then again, I'm a proud Honda fan boy

Slickautosolutions installed some nice Blizzak’s on Marie’s Mazda today.
Excellent service.
Looks like the next two weeks are the last of the season.
I was thinking…
I’d like to get a picture of all the Cool Cats (BRZ/FRS) in front of my FRS.

I changed my front brake pads (Ferodo DS2500) which I installed in August. Almost complete gone after 5000km, of which 1700 (or 14 hours) were tracking

New pad on top, old pad on bottom

Yep, I'd say it was time to change them. Are the pads on the AP kit thicker than the OEM? It looks like they are comparing the pad to backing thickness.

Yes, quite a bit thicker. In comparison, the DS2500 rear pads I've used all last year and this year (with OEM calipers) are only about 50% worn out.

Interesting stuff, thanks Norm.

Left work early and gave my baby one last hand wash and wax before the winter weather comes.

Winters go on tomorrow @Slick

I'm storing my car in two weeks.
TWO WEEKS.

I'm gonna hit the next person who mentions snow.
