Cool

Subaru know FA will leak oil & u will add in more heavy weigh oil eventually to stop the leak + protection. They just can't tell that to US customer. Happy 2021

Don't mind. Had it listed for $14,000 including spare set of wheels and all other spare parts I had. Sold it for $11,000 because buyer didn't want any extra parts. Within 24 hours already sold $1600 worth of spare parts.

So pretty pleased.

Probably going to stay away from Porsches for a bit. Kind of have a bad taste in my mouth, lol.

The 2nd gen BRZ is my interest, but that car won't be available for 9-12 months. I might go in a different direction for now...

Exclamation

Don't want a convertible, and don't like the way the ND looks.

Checked out a 2012 P31 C63 AMG yesterday. But it would really stretch my budget...

BTW I've never owned anything heavier than 3200 lb and this would only be the 2nd automatic car I've owned - so huge departure. But I have a huge crush on the sounds those C63s make!

My 0.02: smaller and lighter-weight is way way way more fun than bigger and heavier and massively overpowered... Suggest swap M-B monster motor into 2400 lb. Cobra Daytona replica.
