As a former BRZ owner I understand the feeling. However, the twins are just crazy low speed fun. Sustained drifting at 30 mph around a round-about, so easy in that car. The tires are matched to allow you to overpower them with the anemic i4. The gearbox gives you every opportunity to do it too...
The horse icon thing did not work, but going through the main menu and selecting trip info did work. I found a reddit article earlier.
Disconnecting the battery was also quoted. I’m sure that would work but turned out unnecessary.
Finally, they also mentioned selecting custom gauges. That also...
Anyone know how to make this go away? Setting a mode doesn’t do it. Turning off my mode doesn’t do it. I can’t cycle to other menus like trip 1, 2, fuel economy, etc.
So Napa has a sale for $6.49/qt right now. It’s still API “SN” per the owner manual and the correct weight. Am I missing anything or should I jump on this?
HPP Ecoboost in need of a break in change.
Hmm, if there’s an option to buy it outright I’m less angry. I am curious to see the breakdown of what the car costs up front. Will they all come with these paywalled features, or do you “pay twice” for it? First the option of having it installed, then the fee to unlock it?
If they take a $500...
This thing's an animal. I'm coming from a BRZ and was worried I was giving up handling. That fear was unfounded. Still need to learn how to get the tail out on street driving. Right now it hooks so fast all I get is some "wag" when powering out of a corner.
For anyone that hasn't seen one in person, the pictures don't capture how much gold/yellow comes out in the sun. That's the #1 comment I get from people that have seen photos, then see it in person.
I don’t know for the S550 specifically. I’d look at the hardware when it’s off. If a nut looks oblong, that’s a sign it’s intended as 1 use only.
Thank you for doing the work on this. It dramatically improved my listening experience. I had only gone about halfway on the adjustments and was still having horrible bass noise that made some songs unbearable when the mid wasn’t matching it. I thought I was going to need to take it to a shop...
I took delivery on the 30th of June. I already have 3,500 miles on it! Like @Corporate_Rebel I was picked up at the airport and in/out in under 10 minutes. Great experience, I’ll be starting with Granger for my next vehicle purchase. They honored price from time of order and preserved incentives...
On the move in Michigan. 48 hours into ownership and I ticked a bit over 1,100 miles. It was so nice having passing power in the U.P.
The green is a head turner. I get comments almost every time I stop.
I was really worried when I messed up my order and didn’t get the stripe delete on the ecoboost hpp. They are much more subtle in person.
No regrets on color or packages now!
The metallic stripes on the hood I accidentally let go through on my order. I’m driving across the country, so not sure if I can get a good photo. Renderings and distant photos don’t do it justice. They look much better in person and up close.
One of the ecoboost packs comes with them.
I’ve had it for 24 hours. There are 2 features on my car I originally worried were a waste of money or that I wouldn’t like. AE was #2, but I’ve changed my mind. For the ability to change settings alone, it’s worth it. I hate exhaust noise normally, but the idea of trying to build a static...
Inventory the kit before you tear anything down. They’re known for their lack of QA/QC around Seattle. I’ve gotten parts from completely different vehicles in their kits.
