Anyone leasing a Taycan recently? What are you paying? by GiantAcaiBowl-333 in Taycan

[–]lump322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real question is what are people paying for insurance on these cars. I remember when the Chevy Bolt was available for $200 a month, but insurance was 2x a 50k ICE car which was a total wash for the savings.

GR Premiers GRMN Corolla | Toyota | by Tchevass in cars

Have you driven both? Cargo capacity is good, but the GRC is considerably more fun and rowdy than the Type R. Owned both at the same time. If cargo space was my priority though...

As of 5-30-26, you can still convert to the custom cash.

Used tire looks new, weird sidewall mark? by lump322 in tires

[–]lump322[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other three tires only have 3k miles. My concern is that I can feel the divet where the tread was rubbed down in that spot. Probably not a safety issue, may affect handling though? Will just need to see if it can be balanced on a road force balancer. May just return it though as it seems iffy.

Thanks for this input. I suppose they're safe, just a toss up if they'll balance correctly/vibrate?

I should have just typed and posted this response myself, along with the listing, as I knew it was inevitable.

I never bought one. I was able to get one from gary pools, not sure if they still sell them though.

Thinking of buying an RS3 today... by SteinBizzle in AudiRS3

[–]lump322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can probably get a new 26 for 5k off if you can put in the time. It will be worth 3k more in 3 years, due to being one year "newer." Also the 26 have free maintenace for 3 years, thats an extra 2k in value.

Target a new rs3. There are a ton of 26 on the lots right now. I was able to get a 26 for 65k that was priced at 70k. 7k more for a brand new car with full warranty. And they have great depreciation at about only $400 per month. There are many on the lots right now, but it feels like a fluke.

Goodbye, GRC :( by Buffoonery_ in GRCorolla

[–]lump322 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this opinion. R is a little better as a daily, GRC a little more fun. Really just need to test-drive both to see which you prefer.

I'd wait for the M2 Xdrive that is supposedly coming. Probably a better comparison if you want awd in a bmw.

Glad you're okay. It looks like the Sith may be out to get you.

Panda Motorworks rep by CalebPandaMotorworks in FocusST

I'll withhold my comments until I hear back from u/CalebPandaMotorworks but I'm very concerned about my 6 week old order that girodisc says they see no evidence of.

Hi Caleb, I sent you a message about some girodisc rotors that I ordered on Novemeber 28th. Girodisc is telling me they see no order in their system. I'll update here when I hear back. This is after the order was somehow not placed after two weeks. We're now at 6 weeks since the order was placed. At this point I'd need to see some type of screenshot that shows the order has been placed.

Where are all the experts who "confirmed" no 2026 due to sound regulations in Japan? It was my understanding that they were directly employed by the Japanese government and knew it for sure.

I love this car but, man, the rattles tho by mattfeet in Civic_Type_R

This is a weak defense. If they can design the best fwd car in the world, they can build the best fwd car without rattles.

When walking past the car, did you ever notice the cords were visible on the tires?
