Warning!! Warning!!

Avoid weekly washing regimes as the Hakone colour fades much like your favourite pair of jeans!!

Just look at what happened to my other Hakone, I think it has to go back to the dealer... Although the photo below my car shows that if you continue washing it turns into a nice shade of grey and the front grille shrinks.. again much like your favourite pair of jeans!!

Yep, reminds me of a cross between an old Chrysler and an old Packard.

EverydayDriver "Toyota 86 vs Supra 2.0"




It seems Todd has been missing the magic of the 86.

Fall Colors

Returning from a recent trip to Ohio.

The fall foliage along MD 68 is quite exceptional right now.

Wheel has been holding up great so far. Working in the medical field, my hands are pretty clean most often. Wash and sanitize my hands every time I leave work before getting back in the car, and I typically do as well prior to going anywhere, if possible.

I do a light cleaning with Sonax alcantara cleaner once every few months and that's it.

Here's a photo from a recent track day.

Saw anther one on the road on Friday! Unfortunately I was driving the work truck so couldn't give a wave without looking weird.
Considering there are only 50 spread across Canada the odds of coming across another are remote. This one was in a smallish city with a dealership that is really into the 86 and has had all of the special editions though so if I was going to see another that place makes sense. Not like my larger city where the dealer hates them and refuses to stock any at all!

Yep. Pretty sure. It was an old guy driving it though so maybe it was two timing me!
I now fully understand why people stare at me when moving though. The play of the light on that colour is mesmerizing.

Any specs (speed, Gs) for when that picture was taken? Any mods?
