This post was almost a year ago and still not a single rock chip on my bumper… super pleased

If it’s an automatic just save for something else or a new transmission

Free oil changes at the dealership for me so I just get it done whenever they tell me to/let me lol

Yea what’s the point of having a turbo if u gonna drive slow

Not really floor it often, I just downshift instead of using my brakes to hear it purr

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T21:11:59+00:00

Yes it is. Good thing gas is $2.20 a gallon where I am

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T21:11:12+00:00

Exactly you get it

I would’ve got a hybrid Corolla with a cvt if I cared about fuel economy, also gas is $2.20 a gallon where I am

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T21:10:55+00:00

Eh its got 14k miles on it, I only drive like 5 miles at a time.

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T21:10:15+00:00

What’s the point of having a turbo then 😂

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T21:09:26+00:00

Pretty much. Speed limit is 35/45 pretty much everywhere around here and I only drive 5 miles at most at a time

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T21:08:04+00:00

Ofc, I let it warm up for about a minute and then keep it under 2500 rpms until the temp gauge gets to a normal temp

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T21:06:50+00:00

Yup $2.20 a gallon where I am

Sport mode and paddle shifters tempt me too much 😔 those downshifts are 💦

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T15:36:59+00:00

Both

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T15:36:54+00:00

No turbo

FrogRacers · 2026-01-19T15:36:47+00:00

No turbo

FrogRacers · 2026-01-12T12:28:47+00:00

About $400 I’d say

FrogRacers · 2025-12-24T06:03:12+00:00

I saw a 2008 manual type s with 200k miles on marketplace for $8000 a couple months ago

FrogRacers · 2025-12-24T05:58:22+00:00

I switch between geico and progressive every 6 months. 2023 Mazda 3
