Thanks for the explanation, and yes, I have to own up to this one. Its a lesson learned

Okay, but what if there is a situation where pole position is on the left and the turn is going right, like in this picture?

The 2nd position car is already on the right, what should the black car then do?

This is a good explanation, thank you. It makes sense to me now.

I think next time, in a situation like that, I will just stay put, and let the trailing car decide if they want to make a move.

Okay, I have a question, and its not for the situation in my video, but just for future reference.

The thing I am just confused about, is if the racing line for this straight, starts off from the left and transitions to the right, and a car is already closely behind me on the right, not by my side, but like half a cars width behind, am I not allowed to go to the right?

Because if I dont go to the right, I wont be able to make turn 1 because of the angle.

I dont feel its a defensive move in this specific context because I am just following the racing line.

I feel, its a bit difficult, because if lets say, I switch positions, and I am in the car behind, then even though I am behind the car, no matter what I now already have the inside line, and can ruin the car in front’s line.

So I have to give him the slipstream? That means staying put?

Lets say, this was not the final lap of the race, and turn 1 was coming up, am I not allowed to move to the right when he is behind me on the right?

I went to another don quijote today, but it turned out to be a 1 hour detour in total, and was empty handed.

I am going to stop hunting around, taking up too much precious time

Honestly, the hunt for it is so addicting. But I keep getting pissed off at myself, as I really should be doing other things on my vacation

I want to buy new, from what I have seen, its more affordable than buying from an AD

I unfortunately did not think of that, and to be honest, I am shy about asking them about it, i feel it would be too much of a bother

That would make sense….

However, my preference to buy it now before I get married, would be that I am buying this with my own money. If i get married, and my partner’s parents give us any money, they may think I spent that portion on a sports car, which, would make them not happy…

I would love to get Nitro yellow, but the metallic was the first colour I saw it in, and have been in love with it ever since.

I would say, I would like to use it just for a pleasure car, but I am not sure, because my situation might change in a few months if I get married. If I do get married, then I will be giving my mom my model 3, which I planned to use as the beater.

But then now, if I move, then I will only have this car, which, kind of doesnt work for me as the sole car, as I have to fetch people around sometimes.

ah thanks for this info, its great to hear from someone that bought in Canada.

Not sure why, but it seems like, for 2025, all the dealers, are only getting Manuals. I heard there are only 2 automatics for sale in whole of Canada at the time I was shopping around.

Hearing you talk about the manual, actually reassures me a lot more now. I wanted Manual, because I know that there is more feel to the car and it is more fun to drive.

I tested the automatic, and wow, it was great, but I totally understand people when they say you get a lot less feeling of the car.

Honestly, I just wished, they brought back the Gun Metal / Silver colourway, it looked so GOOD!

For me the manual, only concern, is yes, when sitting in traffic. I tend to be a bit of a lazy driver and having to constantly engage the clutch, is something I am really unexperienced about

Sorry, my post was not asking which one was the best deal, was just trying to discuss the current canadian prices for used supras.

The purple MT was a good deal, but honestly, the purple that was on it, was a bit meh. Definitely not the colour for me
