Start acting like a moderator and less like the forum bully. God save us from the grammar police. Indeed.

I suggest you admit you were wrong about changing the oil being a requirement and move on. I have. Happy New Year!

I suggest you learn the difference between a recommendation and a mandate.

Same thing I was told. I think the oil is distilled from unicorn piss.

Thanks for the info. As I said, a recommendation.

ACURA doesn't "require" a yearly oil change, it is a recommendation. If it was a requirement, the warranty would reflect it.

I am gonna have the filter cut open and look for crap. If we were still using organic based oils I would change more frequently, or if I beat on the car which I don't. The synthetics are great. I read an article on Mobile 1 a long time ago and it was speculated that it was good for over 50k...

I am getting next year in order and called to make an appointment to get the oil and brake fluid changed. I figured that the car is due since I have not done an oil change since I got the car 5 years ago. It has less than 4k miles, as it appears I would rather own it than drive it. lol About...

Had my yearly inspection (warranty) for the ceramic coating today. I call it my $170 car wash. lol

I finally hardwired my BlackVue today. You need to drop the overhead console and unplug it to get access to the mirror wiring which is a green plug/white receptacle that doesn't plug into the console. I used a wiretap...

I have heard they refer to the LC500 as an Aston Martin that runs.........

Spherical bearings are the only way to go if you want to get rid of a "rubber band" suspension. Do the shock amounts first. I would assume that either the PORSCHE or Corvette offerings would work or be adaptable. They are not cheap either...

My AG (African grey) can't do this! https://www.dropbox.com/s/6m83sum0q5moj0o/WhatsApp%20Video%202021-01-29%20at%20%20%20%20%205.31.03%20AM-2.mp4?dl=0

Thanks for asking. I am really getting used to the car, it reminds me of my CTS-V (first gen) except it is much nicer! The infotainment operation is a real mismatch for such a well thought out interior. There is NOTHING available to "hot rod" the thing except for about 5 exhaust systems. The...

Thanks for clearing that up!

Car and Driver spy shots.

UPDATE: I got the LC500. Nice car.

I took it for a test drive and it didn't impress me enough get enthusiastic. I guess the NSX has really spoiled me. I would have made a deal, but the sales manager wanted to show off what a hard ass he was and didn't want to negotiate over $2k which I would have split the difference over. I...

I checked with my insurance and the LC500 would cost me more than a C8 to insure. The insurance guy was shocked.

I am bored with my Camry, so I started car shopping and got enthusiastic about the new SUPRA. Then a friend sent me this (subtitles, but the guy doesn't mince words). https://www.autoevolution.com/news/famous-japanese-tuner-and-racer-roasts-new-toyota-supra-it-really-sucks-143025.html I was...

BMW sure sold a lot of them and the specs are not bad at all. The cheapest all carbon fiber car out there. https://www.bmwux.com/latest-hybrid-electric-bmw-i8-guide/bmw-i8-specs-engine-top-speed-horsepower/ However, when I saw the NSX I forgot all about it.

A more "fair" comparison should be against all the other "super hybrids". Start with a 918 comparison. When I was shopping I almost got an I8. I decided if I was gonna get a hybrid it was gonna be a bitchin one. The NSX was a bargain.

Got a real nice compliment on the car from a woman at the latest C&C I went to. Evidently her husband was a TOYOTA employee for a long time. Her comment, " Now this is a sports car I can appreciate", was preceded by explaining her TOYOTA history. I let her sit in the car and her husband took...

I like the nonchalant comment about how much it is and how it's worth it.
