Re-read this post as if you're reading it for the first time, and ask yourself what you would tell the person who wrote this? You clearly hate the car. Maybe you're just frustrated at this point in time, I've probably been there with a few cars... but man. This is some true grievance shit! And...

Huh? Where is green anywhere in this picture? These are a gloss bronze. "Dark Amber/Clear" to be exact... Not green.

Yeah that's REALLY aggressive... but you're probably not wrong. I don't think 10.5 with 285s would fit without rubbing though so there would be more implications beyond just wheel and tire selection. I think @Integra23 is on Eibach Pro-kit springs and has a few other suspension components (I see...

Part of me feels like you just got the shit end of the stick with your particular car... but it also just might not be a fit for you. For me, I've probably pissed a lot of people off on these forums with my unbridled passion for this car. This car is borderline spiritual for me. I went through...

I hear you. Bad customer service sounds like an appropriate description and far more subjective and open to interpretation... but I still disagree with the bad business take. The rules are pretty cut and dry, and expecting them to break them because you weren't aware (another word for that is...

There may be a way to defeat it, but it's probably easier to just train yourself out of the habit.

So, back when this car was first announced and that it would be built in Ohio, I knew. Any cars built in the fall/winter months on Monday (or sometimes Tuesday or Friday) after a Bengals OR Browns game (Marysville appears to be equidistant to Cleveland and Cincinnati) may have issues. Makes...

You've got like 10Gs in your engine, spend a little on the parts that actually touch the ground.

Again with the bullshit, no! How the hell do you figure "not providing what was offered"? It isn't the seller's responsibility that the buyer didn't read the fine print. It's cool that the seller seems to be a good dude and helped a brother out, but IMO it wasn't necessary. The transaction took...

Free marketing for Jester! See, I can be useful every now and then. Hopefully I'll actually do something to my car again soon so my posts can stay relevant.

So let me step in and be the asshole again... but wouldn't it make sense to have all this conversation about tuning in maybe, you know- a thread about tuning? It's one thing to go down little rabbit holes here and there, that's what this thread is for. But the last 5 pages have been chock full...

Thanks for posting this. Sucks to be the one who learned the hard way, but I'm sure someone can benefit from it. That said, personally I disagree that it's "bad business" to refuse to make an exception to their terms and services. That's actually a GOOD business decision, because those Ts and...

If I lived in KC I would absolutely do winter tires. Us coastal elites, especially here near the Mason-Dixon line, generally can get away with all seasons. I tried winters one year on my S3 and was pretty disappointed when it basically didn't snow at all that year. Potholes can be bad but...

Otherwise have to go custom to get close-to-OEM offset. As for winter setups, never too early to start thinking about that, right? Which is why in May I had the 265/30/19 Continental DWS06+ I bought last year to go on the OEM wheels swapped BACK onto the OEM wheels (after swapping the Michelins...

What a binary way to think. Data can provide benefits in the exact same way it offers risk. Mostly it depends on who's using it.

Lol. This is not going to be a volume production model. $150k+ is my guess. If it's ever made available for purchase at all. This is either a 100% showcase car, or a race-ready option a la M4 GT4 or GT4 Clubsport, or Camaro GT4.R. In any case, this isn't going to be something we'll be...

Which is what I think the thing in Texas is all about. There's prolific usage of the word "consent". Apparently GM DGAF and collected and sold the data anyway. I'm wondering if that's actually the case, because big corporations are VERY good at the "EULA roofie" (I'm trademarking this one...

It's crazy how much I've forgotten about this already. Scary, actually... I used to know this. And it wasn't easy filtering out all the noise on this topic to get to real, valid information. And like I mentioned earlier, there are still several questions I have- like if this is even a valid...

My kingdom for someone to present rock solid evidence that our cars actually are equipped with the Telematics Control Unit that collects this data in the first place. So far any evidence I have seen is inconclusive, but points towards our cars NOT being equipped with it. So all of this would be...

Here's a direct link to Reuters- zero need to send traffic through "X". https://www.reuters.com/legal/texas-sues-general-motors-allegedly-collecting-selling-drivers-private-data-2024-08-13/ Seems frivolous to me, but end of the day that's exactly what GM did; "collect data on drivers without...
