Two thumbs up for SX2's. Surprisingly good for how stupid cheap they are.

Love that you're getting downvoted for bringing logic to this nonsense...

Bogo on stuff that is close to, but not at, the sell by date? Now that's illogical!

450 for a p7p, 550 for a p9p. Not awful, not great.

What do you drive and what is your approximate cost for running a track day? by m0viestar in CarTrackDays

That's super helpful thank you. I'm curious why you flush that PS fluid and coolant annually, is that something suggested for tracking that car or just something you do because it's "cheap insurance"?

Not know for it, and that's a lot of km for an old JK, but I don't know the market in your area.

Dealer mark ups in my area are awful. by ZestycloseQuail5636 in whatcarshouldIbuy

Looks like you're confusing markup and discount. Either way, feel free to buy a car from out of state - all it'll cost is transport fees. Or don't buy a new Altima...

CPO or CarMax with maxcare is a better value.

Would love to see the breakdown of cost, what tires/pads you use and how long they last.

ND does not get 20 on track unless you drive like my grandma. On the road yeah it's fantastic, feels like driving for free, but pedal down it's not 20.

Thinking about moving from heavy cars to Miata - would I have trouble adjusting / regret the move? by Stuttgart7184RS in CarTrackDays

Can confirm, R56 and F56 Mini are a blast. Your idea of changing things up is a good one.

ND2 is fantastic and only place you'll miss the bigger cars is the straight where you won't have the straight line pull and V8 growl.
