  1. Well, I pulled the trigger and ordered a 2026 GT. Wish me luck!

    The last car I ordered from the factory went, "the orders in", 3 months later, "your car's arrived". A bit impersonal given it was the very first Cupra sold in NZ. Dealers were great though.
  2. Why is This Car so Heavy?

    Yep. A sure way for someone to lose 20 lbs of unsightly fat....cut off your head
  3. How often and how can I best wash my molten magenta tri coat mustang?

    Ceramic coating and PPF on vulnerable areas worked out cost effective for me. About $NZ2200. I got over washing, waxing buffing, etc, etc, now it's just wash and dry.
  4. S650 GT vs. S550 GT Impressions & Comparisons

    As a general rule, they have to prove the mods caused the problem.
  5. This is getting silly... never thought I was buying an economy car

    Mine's back up there now Glenn. Urban driving is not great for economy. Ce la vie
  6. BMW M3 (E90) vs S650

    I had both the GT86, and now the Mustang. The Toyota was great but I friend zoned it. The Ford is the dogs nuts. I'm in car love.
  7. 25C43 Water Intrusion Recall

    Had the recall done today. It ended up being the whole day, no water intrusion. Sealed and delivered.
  8. Display Burn-in

    It's not called artificial for nothing.
  9. Display Burn-in

    This would be TV's? I think it's little different for a car infotainment system.
  10. BMW M3 (E90) vs S650

    The really telling numbers are in braking. 6' is the difference between a miss, and a big hit.
  11. Why is This Car so Heavy?

    I had a 70's Mustang go past a few days ago. Fastback, not sure of the exact model, but I thought it looked enormous.
  12. Is it me or is this car tail happy when making fast turns

    Minus 15-20% depending on trans? A bit of a rude awakening.
  13. Why is This Car so Heavy?

    i don't know if I'd like a Supra Mustang. This one has presence without being too huge, it does most things well and is an icon. I doubt you'd have strangers coming up and asking about your Supra.
  14. Is it me or is this car tail happy when making fast turns

    I remember reading a USV8 tuning book back in the early 60's where 1hp per cubic inch was the holy grail and quick cars were doing 13's in the 1/4. Now you can buy a 4cyl family SUV making 150+hp per litre, 13.6 quarter and limited to 250kmh. And get a 5 year warranty plus not poisoning the...
  15. Is it me or is this car tail happy when making fast turns

    Electronics can't beat physics, or humans ability to crash despite them.
  16. Is it me or is this car tail happy when making fast turns

    You can watch him in the Bathurst 12 hour driving a Beemer.
  17. Is it me or is this car tail happy when making fast turns

    True, but that was a quirk of the bike. PS I can't stand Rea. He was a filthy rider in BSB, constantly overriding his Honda and taking out the faster guys regularly
  18. Is it me or is this car tail happy when making fast turns

    Perfect explaination. I picked that up watching MotoGP, they brake and accelerate much harder than they can corner, so you square it off to minimise the time spent at lean.
  19. Why is This Car so Heavy?

    Yep, she's got a bit of a fat arse. But it suits her.
  20. Wolfbox - anybody tried this?

    When I was into photography in the days of film, wide lenses with minimal edge distortion were mega expensive. I've heard of image manipulation software that can minimise or eleminate that. But never needed to look into it fully.
