  1. Shame, as they look really good on the road.
  2. Only did a couple of days, and left by lunchtime They were good, but the rest of the trip doing everything else was better. Just cruising down to Miami and going through all the little backwater towns and right past Sebring was amazing.
  3. I'm home now. Jet lagged to f*ck, my body has no idea what time of day it is, whether I'm hungry or tired or anything! Had a superb time though. If you stay away from the touristy stuff, Florida really is ace.

    Boxes

    No-one is going to pay any extra for a 7 year old AV receiver if it's got a box Tech will be so out of date by then it's untrue, unless it's a very high end one. If it is, then it'll be worth loads still regardless of having a box or not IMHO. Same with a TV, or speakers, or anything like that really.
  5. Not you personally, more in general!
  6. No, they make you look like a ****.
  7. Viper Green or Chrome Orange. Or maybe Mexico Blue.

    Boxes

    I always bin mine. Electronics stuff drops in value so quickly, it's not something that I ever consider with regards to value.

    RWYB

    Leeroy Jenkins fast I'd love to do a RWYB day one day. Closest I've come is a VMax day, but it's not really the same.
  10. Tend to agree that a new S car would do much better than a new Z.

    White wheels?

    Not for me, sorry. The only wheel colours that work on silver cars are either standard finish, or ridiculously bright like a neon green or orange.
  12. No, you're right, I don't think there's a market for the Zed at all as it stands. Looking at the BRZ86 model, I don't think there's a huge market for that either. I don't see a future for the Zed any more, if I'm honest. Not in the current guise of GT cruiser, at any rate.
  13. Oh my god that orange, oh my god
  14. It's all very well and good saying we can get loads of power out of a Zed if it comes with a turbo engine, but you'll lose that wonderful throttle response as well as end up with an exhaust note even worse than what we have now
  15. No-one has any idea right now at all. They're just guessing to fill column inches.
  16. Yes, if you're going to refer to that as the redline then you're correct. Once you join the rest of the normal world in recognising that the redline is the limiter, then we can sit down and have a proper conversation about how cars work. You could paint a redline at the 4k mark, that would mean your car would be amazing and let you go over three thousand rpm past the redline!!!11
  17. Dave's got it Alien could be good, or it could still suck like the last one.
  18. Your car cannot go past the redline, end of.
  19. Diablo doesn't interest me. I think DA:I is the next thing I'm looking forward to.
  20. Ouch!
  21. You cannot take an auto beyond the redline. That would be utterly stupid. Changing gears does not give you more grip, manual or auto. Where on earth did you read that nonsense?!
  22. Current value of the mods isn't like for like. For example, your turbo kit may have cost you £10k, but on the second hand market it's only worth £5k. As such, if you write the car off you're only getting £5k back. All figures for illustrative purposes only. At least, that's how it reads to me, IANAL etc. Given the value and work that's gone into your car, would you not be better off with a guaranteed value policy?
  23. Need more details.
  24. You sure on that last bit? Can't see any reference to that in the policy wording on their website. Also they don't specifically exclude track days, so actually it looks like you are covered
  25. Seems reasonable. No track cover included I assume? Are the mods covered like for like?
