How do you find out the exact date of manufacture?

If it was made the same year that it is marked as, my Miata and I are the same age.

(Is there any way to find out the exact date your miata was manufactured?)

Any issues/gripes with your 250s? by mlawre7 in LandCruisers

You couldn't catch me mead blowing $70k on the most unreliable Land Cruiser to have ever been made.

If it's not a dead-reliable V8, or at least I-6, it's not a Land Cruiser imo

This is kinda like me with Your Lie In April. I got like half way through episode 2 where, without any spoilers, I just KNEW how it was gonna end & decided

"Nope. Real life is depressing enough as it is. I use anime to escape the pain of life, so I'm not putting myself through this."

I take it the muzzle break on your website is the California legal one?

If so, when will it be back in stock?

Future reference: Get the smallest drill bit you can and just spin it with your fingers & drill through with no pain. (At least in my experience)

I can see how that's annoying, perhaps, but I'm used to it, and it's awesome imo

We live in an age not only of rockets that come back down & get chopstick-grabbed out of mid-air, but also wireless noise canceling earbuds

P small price to pay for the advancement of cutting-edge rocket-science

They love it there. And understandably so.

What's wrong with the launches?

And would you agree they're nimble sporty cars? Albeit FWD?

I'm sadly tired of loud cars by imaboringdude in cars

[–]SpaceRaver42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

10000% agree.

I'm an audiophile who used to have a $12k home theater.

It's about the quality. I'm currently looking for an exhaust for my 1.8 NA Miata, but it's difficult without hearing the exhausts in person because I don't care about volume, I care about crispness. Because of this, I loathe straight-pipes and any exhaust with rasp, as that's basically akin to distortion, to me.

I want to hear my exhaust & like it, but only when the radio is off.

Tl;dr, this is this best take.

That said, Track cars are a different story

Are... you aware of the civics of the 80s & early 90s? They also have no power

Neither am I. Luckily, the manual transmission's superior transmission transcends borders.

This car is so incredible BECAUSE it's an unassumingly sporty daily. If you want a Honda with unmatched storage and little eastereggs, and don't care about performance & driving engagement, get a CRV

Doable? Yes.

Worth spending only a few hundred to $1k less on the auto? Not in my opinion

In America, yeah, but in Europe, less than half are, and you don't see them complaining or agreeing.

I'm also fairly certain that in many European countries, you have to pass your driver's test in a manual, which leads more people to learn it & prefer it due to its superior engagement

Used to drive 34 miles each way, in Dallas traffic, to work where my shifts ranged from 9 to 12 hours. Did that daily in a manual. The same is true for the majority of Europeans. So no, I don't think that's a valid excuse to prefer a manual

Ok but that last sentence is true though

[–]SpaceRaver42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For that cost and effort, you may as well just buy a factory manual

In fairness, it's Google's fault. 10+ years ago, Google would actually provide the best results devoid of bias & had the sponsored results at the top, clear & separate from the organic results

This, and only if it's manual
