Prices for normal cars are staying pretty firm unless it's a crap box no one wants, but the niche stuff is getting softer. Plus the 2024 are here.

Check out the number of Manual Supras 5 speeds for sale at MSRP. The people that have money will have money, but the interest rates 100% moved some ppl out of the market.

Got my winters on. Did a coat of ceramic coat before installing. Was kind of scared at first but It was easy to apply. I used Gyeon Rim Sealant from Amazon.

Motegi - MR145 TRAKLITE 3.0 - Bronze - MATTE BRONZE - 18" x 8.5", 35 Offset, 5x114.3 (Bolt Pattern), 72.6mm HUB × 4

Michelin - Pilot Alpin 5 - 235/40R18 XL 95V BSW × 4






Also got some phantom mats from Costco I will be installing tomorrow. They are the same as tuxmat.

Hmm I haven't really followed the platform cuz you can't buy one but they concluded the type r is better unless you really want AWD, but that AWD craps out cuz of over heat in like 2 laps so you get fwd only lol. And your oil temp over heats too. that billet diff mod sounds expensive and they don't even know what fluid it uses.

Love my GR. Just came back from Kelowna on Sunday. On the top of the Coq it was snowing hard and the car handled it with no problems. The sound system does suck and will be upgraded.
