I am already starting to compile a list of things that I want to change. They are all cosmetic as I probably won’t change anything mechanical until others have tested them.
Rear spoiler - The base model spoiler looks kind of cheap to me and I am not a huge fan of the CFTP spoiler. I am...
My wife was involved in a car accident this evening. The other driver was at fault but was completely belligerent to my wife after the accident. He was yelling at her and cursing at her blaming her for the accident. My wife called the police and never talked to him.
The police came and...
So it looks like I missed the boat on ordering a 2017. I wasn't ready to buy one until summer anyways until my MDX lease expires.
I talked to one of the biggest dealers in my area for allocations and they said they sold all of their allocations already (15) for MSRP. The sales person said their...
I live in a development that was built 15 years ago. The shingles on roofs on almost every house have been falling off randomly over the past few years on almost every house in the neighborhood. There has not been a single storm that caused the specific damage.
This past winter a company came...
I bought a 2015 M3 about two months ago. I have been having some major issues with rocks getting thrown off the tires and chipping the entire side of the car from the front wheel well lip, rocker panel, door edge, and rear quarter panel flare. The back tires are damaging the lip of the rear...
What car did you dream about having when you were young but could not afford? If you had the financial means to buy it, the garage space, etc, would you still want it today? Obviously don't list something like a Boss 429 or an F40 if you still can't afford it.
My dream car in high school was a...
I want to custom order a new F150 in a few months and am wondering how you negotiate a good price. I would also be trading in a vehicle.
The last few vehicles I have purchased have been well below invoice as i was able to use the strategy of calling around and getting best pricing from...
I discovered that my roof was leaking last week and ended up opening up the wall to see if there was any mold damage. I opened the wall up that looks at the back of the wall to the bathroom tub surround and everything was black. I starting to panic thinking that the entire wall was covered in...
Hi all,
Over the past few months I have been getting a strong smell inside the car that to me smells like oil burning off. It happens after I have not driven the car for a few days and only happens the first time I give it mild to full throttle. I do not see any leaks and do not notice any...
Has anyone had problems installing these? I cannot get them to seat properly and hold onto the fog light housing clips. If I pull back on them after they are clipped in they pop off on one clip. The factory ones go on and off with no problems. I am having this problem on both sides. I am pretty...
With the warm weather in PA today I decided to pull the car out of the garage today and start it up. As I started to pull the cover off, I immediately noticed the high amount of condensation on the paint and windows and then realized there was water collecting around the skirt of the cover. How...
For those of you who have installed the FRPP springs, did you transfer the stock isolators off do the old spring? They are glued on but look like they can be reused. If you are not using them, are you getting any noise from the spring contacting the strut?
Unfortunately my iPhone pictures do not do this car justice. Ruby Red is gorgeous in person and is the first time I have seen it up close. Car was equipped with a KB Mammoth making something like 880 rwhp. Still on stock Goodyears, lol.

Does anyone else notice how hot these cars get? I opened the hood tonight after a short drive and the heat coming off the engine is overwhelming. Everything in the engine bay is too hot to touch including the plastic parts around the engine bay. I also get a lot of heat coming out of the cup...
I never thought that my wife would have pushed me to buy a GT500 but I guess she was tired of me complaining about not having a toy and constantly searching online ads for the past few years. This morning as I was randomly searching local dealer inventory she told me out of nowhere to buy one...
I just had my roof replaced last week. The estimator initially felt that a lot of the plywood sheathing could be saved and thought that replacing all the sheathing was not necessary. We agreed that they would replace by the sheet and left the estimate open for additional plywood if it was...
Has anyone ever purchased a flood damaged vehicle before that has a salvage title? I am going through a salvage company's website and there are a ton of classic cars on there. Can these cars be saved with a complete restoration or will salt water damage be impossible to fix? I would imagine rust...
My wife picked up a Golf R last weekend. She went in looking for a TDI Jetta and walked out with this, lol. It was probably a bad idea to bring me as we have no self control together. This has quickly turned into our shared toy and she went out and got a Civic as a daily driver.
There goes my...
Would there be any problems clay barring and waxing a brand new car? I just bought a brand new F150 this weekend. I went back tonight to sign the paperwork and have it washed. As soon as I walk out the door after signing the paperwork I walk out to a scratch on the fender flare and after looking...
I just got back from the dealership looking at the 2010 F-150. Ford is offering a pretty good rebate right now of $3500 + an additional $1000 off on the window sticker for a XLT package rebate and $1000 off model year end.
All I have been hearing about is the 2011 engine lineup and how much...
I have been looking at notchbacks for a while now with the intent of stripping the car and putting in a new motor and IRS. I decided to buy a 4cyl because I would probably be scrapping most of the car. Well I found one on Ebay this past weekend that looked like its body was in good shape and was...
I picked up a 2010 Acura TSX V6 yesterday as a daily driver. I opted for the 280hp V6 after test driving their slug of a 4cyl. The car is really quick for a V6 sedan. I can't wait to take on my buddy's SHO. I am loving the bluetooth stereo and phone integration with my Iphone.
Hopefully I...
Alumna sues college because she hasn't found a job - CNN.com
"As Thompson sees it, any reasonable employer would pounce on an applicant with her academic credentials, which include a 2.7 grade-point average and a solid attendance record."
