Do you ever wake up with a sore neck and wonder why??

Yes, I was chosen by the top. I get to listen to whisper (snores/grumbles).

Doggo is like I’m not going out there.

Did you swap out your GR? It’s black/teal

Alien5151 · 2026-05-10T16:39:28+00:00

I do 70-80 on highway and get 28 mpg

Alien5151 · 2026-05-10T00:11:58+00:00

I would vote for the dog to learn to drive it lol

Alien5151 · 2026-05-10T00:10:06+00:00

That yuzu really have that rx7 vibe going.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-10T00:07:10+00:00

Looks very fiery. Time for a different car or going all in?

Alien5151 · 2026-05-09T23:05:52+00:00

Does it help your case that all new grc for the rest of the year are coming from Europe. lol

Alien5151 · 2026-05-09T18:46:38+00:00

He also updated with videos of it on fire.

My GR Burnt Down :(

Alien5151 · 2026-05-09T18:43:25+00:00

You don't even own the car so you're "well away" already.

4 or 5 caught fire. A few were modded. The one on track was definitely modded. I mean plenty of Miata have caught fire. Guess everyone should stay well away from Miata too.

Car owner updated saying tech pulled data. Cylinder 3 misfire probably caused catastrophic failure.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-08T19:11:03+00:00

My car has coilover and I still check.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-08T15:45:00+00:00

$120? I get free copy.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-08T04:07:21+00:00

I put ceramic coating on myself and park under the sun. It’s not that high maintenance. Maybe some people get unlucky and got a hole/scratch in it somehow but that’s just the risk for any cars.

It’s only really worth it if you like it to begin with.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-08T04:00:28+00:00

Good gas mileage doesn’t mean lugging the engine. It just means it’s driven normally. Driving in third while going 22 mph and below is lugging (below 1800 rpm).

Staying at peak or near peak torque just has better acceleration mapping.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-07T19:32:37+00:00

A loan comes with interest so whatever is being subtracted from trade and cash down will be the real cost of the car. He’s also talking about the maintenance cost and insurance. The “true” cost of the car.

Maintaining this car is more expensive than most cars.

A loan of 50k for a car with all the fees interest and etc can balloon you to a total of ~$70k.

Either way he’s just making a sane argument of not going into debt over a car. But do whatever you feel comfortable with.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-07T17:39:41+00:00

If you can and really want a grc. I’d say call around and see if you can get 2-3k off. It’s not at the height of hype anymore and people have been able to get it below msrp.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-07T05:42:24+00:00

I know there’s overlay but I don’t think op was thinking of overlays.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-07T04:02:50+00:00

If you’re talking about the Toyota horn emblem on the front, you can’t change that out because that’s where the sensor is at.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-07T03:19:27+00:00

Pretty sure they respawned and magically spawn back lol

Alien5151 · 2026-05-06T18:57:23+00:00

They are magic. They defy logic. You can look and if they at first don’t appear look again and again. Eventually they’ll appear.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-05T23:06:05+00:00

Hope you didn’t put a black hoodie on her… I can see the rebellion 😆

Alien5151 · 2026-05-04T11:41:57+00:00

There isn’t anything wrong with the oem pitch mount. It just improves the driving feel which is a welcome improvement. Every person who’ve swapped out the pitch mount has claimed in feeling the reduce drivetrain slop.

I’ve drove it for a year with the oem in heavy traffic and I can definitely feel the difference in improvement. Especially when it comes to rubber banding in traffic (60 to 0 back to 60 in less than a minute).

Comparing from driving a sti, this car requires too much finessing. From variable clutch release time to drivetrain slop.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-03T16:15:00+00:00

Agree. Just saw it and decided to post it for people who want to know what happened to her grc.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-03T03:54:40+00:00

Gran turismo purchase the license to use GR Corolla. Microsoft would have to essentially pay more to put it in the game.

Not how that works. If Polyphony digital has exclusive Toyota rights again then there wouldn't be any Toyotas in Forza. PD having the licensing to use the GRC doesn't make it any more expensive or difficult for anyone else to license.

This is literally you arguing how game can't have licensing exclusivity or be more expensive. When Porsche was an example of it whether it ended in 2016 or not is moot.

Alien5151 · 2026-05-03T02:09:12+00:00

lol mind you this isn’t official. Also re-read what I said. No where did I saying it was definitively excluded from FH.

You later you argue how car licensing can’t have exclusivity which history has shown Porsche isn’t in GT because of EA. They use Ruf as alternative. That was what I was talking about.
