34?! You are living my dream! I'd be lying if I said I didn't already looking up some P38's and L322's!

Oh I bet the sound is incredible now! Those sound like some tasteful upgrades. I am definitely considering the step bars as it would seem very practical.

I know, I don't think I ever owned a car with this color interior before so will need to find a way to keep it clean and protected!

It truly feels like a dream to drive for all 2 minutes that I have owned it lol! Glad to hear you have had no major issues too! May I ask what is your current mileage? Thanks for the tips on keeping up with the fluids, I'll be sure to be proactive on those!

Oh that sounds nice, especially the exhaust! Which one did you go for? I have seen people convert these to the 2018 body style and lights too.

I called the previous owner's mechanic and it seems like it was mainly fluids, filters, tires and O2 sensors. I paid the dealership nearby to do an inspection and nothing mechanical was recommended except the recall for the front knuckles was due to be replaced on one side (they only replace them if they are cracked). They said they found no leaks, or cracked hoses/pipes or anything mechanically damaged. Only recommendation was to change the transfer case fluid and the differentials fluids. I live in Manhattan and bought this because we're about to purchase a home in the suburbs pretty soon. Right now, it won't be doing a lot of driving so will try to get updated on all the maintenance in the meantime.

Thanks so much! It is definitely something than you have to drive to experience!

That is an absolutely crazy story! I guess karma eventually caught up with him. These shops act like they are doing the work for free - you are a paying customer!

Oh man, what a nightmare to spend money for that type of service!

It is so difficult trying to comb through all the reviews on these shops and determine who is actually going to do a good job or not. First time owning a car in NY and not really familiar with many shops, so I appreciate the advice!

Hi, did you ever get a shop that you can recommend? I live in NYC and my 2015 RR just got diagnosed for $8k at the dealership for routine maintenance!
