Should’ve brought my real camera, it’s somehow still not raining

You should try it in GT form. Just sold mine a few months ago - was more car than I needed, but great vehicle with the turbo and manual combo.

I imagine it would be a lot of fun, but I’m trying to keep my daily stock and low key so I can’t spend my money on some fun project situation. But I’d definitely try one if the opportunity arose.

I love my Leggy. Except the yellow headlights. Those can go to hell. And the slow wipers and windows. And it’s kinda slow off the line and small inside. Plus it burns a lot of oil and the AC drain gets plugged like three times a year. Oh, and the tires are a stupid size.

But damn, I love driving that car.

Yellow headlights? I’ve got the slow windows thing too, and the car itself isn’t the fastest either. No oil burning but I mean, 31k kms. Is it an uncommon tire size or something?

31kms is crazy low mileage. Get to 160k km like mine (assuming my math is right on the conversion, I’m at 100k miles) of mostly highway and the headlights will be destroyed. The oil burning will get worse; it’ll be even worse-er after you replace your headgaskets (maybe).

And the US tire size on my 08 is 205/50/r17. Which is unusual; it’s borderline “low profile” which means they're expensive and there's not much selection.

Yeah I’ve been told the head gasket thing is an inevitability......unfortunate, but I plan on keeping this in the mint shape it’s currently in, so it’ll be worth it. Oh well expensive and low selection sounds terrible. Especially since tires is the only thing this car needs soon.
