  1. god bless you. are you in the wheel chair business?
  2. Did you use the lift at the beginning of the test drive? If so, the blinking may be bc the car will lower itself at about 45 mph automatically. It only blinks while the lift is activating. It should not blink continuously.
  3. not feeling the wheel or the car actually. the 12c, 650, 675 platform is now into it's 5th production year. way to young to have about a dozen versions. i think mclaren is trying too hard and missing the target.
  4. What are the pro and cons between 308 and 328? From what I can tell, Pre-1980 308 are lighter. 1980-1982 308 are the least desirable due to weight and less power. 328 prices are higher. Is this because of less numbers produced? I am thinking of buying one for collecting as well as usage. Budget is 50-70k USD Are both cars reliable? No engine out timing belt change right? Is the targa as desirable as coupe? I prefer coupe. Any leak or squeeking from targa top? I will research fchat as well.
  5. I also heard section 8 leases are subject to additional laws to protect tenant. Such laws include additional building codes etc. I didn't do section 8. But even so the tenant threatened a lawsuit and left after 3 months based on building code claims. Weird enough, my house wasn't modified but still required several grand of retrofits.
  6. small V8 turbo. hmm, i guess they didn't go with the cayenne engine. maybe it's an audi unit?
  7. one factor is the owners. most aventador owners drive it like an automatic in slow traffic or parking lots at car shows. all these wear out the clutch faster.
  8. Doesn't salamone go thru his clutch every 2k miles? He goes to rallies and that probly isn't how the car is driven by most.
  9. Best boob jobs I have seen and touched are 98% real. They feel natural to the touch and no scar. I think Japan has some of the best procedures and options. US boob jobs still feel silicon or saline to me. You can use your own fat these days I hear.
  10. Programming the new key won't erase your old key Your new key is specifically for Gallardo and brand new right?
  11. When you put the wheel back on, was there any adjustment needed to center the wheel? Or was the bolt/screw directly aligned with the steering column? Looks great!
  12. My tv has a couple of apps that is pay per view. It is about $7-10 and the movies are about 2-3 weeks old after theater premier dates. Theaters can be a drag if they are dirty or crowded. Once in a while, I would stop going to theaters. Then you will have a lot of movies to catch up on DVD and streaming. For the illegitimate streaming sources, are they able to trace you if you are using a cell connection? At home, it is the ip that they can trace. What about a cell signal? I suppose you can get a unlimited prepaid cell plan?
  13. Yes it does. The cig lighter is connected all the time so the tender works thru it.
  14. Jump start it and charge it up by either driving it for 2 hrs or go to a shop to have it charged. I think it is not unusual for exotics to die after 2-4 weeks. So I would not change the battery yet.
  15. You can spray some lube in the post to see it it helps Otherwise, take off the under cover and look for broken gears.
  16. not knowing history of the car and the prior damage extent, i would guess $150k. but it would be best if your friend tell you what he wants for it. he must have a figure in his mind since he owns the car and have enough sentiment towards it to buy it back and have it restored. $100k seems a bit low as I am guessing the restoration would be at least $60-100K.
  17. I love his characters in movies. RIP to the man. 73 is a pretty young age. Living well my LP friends.
  18. Check power steer fluid level. Look for leak behind the plastic panel on pax side where ps resevoir is located.
  19. fyi gas cap often start to crack. my 2003 BMW suffered from that. a simple fix could be taking out the seal, reverse it and put it back. seals were not sold separately and this is an easy fix. sometimes the cap is lose or gas is a new formulation. each state has different formulation for each season. your car could be adjusting to it. i once got a misfire. after 1 month of diagnosis and repairs, the problem went away with a new tank of gas. it was premium shell gas. so, it could be gas, even if you fill up at different stations. i would drive it some more and see if it persists.
  20. lol nicely put Here is McLaren's product plan 2016 will have a 520 model, followed by a 499 by September, then rumors on a 475 by November 2017 475 on the market, March will have 450, then 425 by September, and 399 in Dec0 lember seriously, most 12c used owners are GTR owners. i prefer my 11 year old Gallardo to a 2017 570. the 570 looks good and would be a good value compare to huracan. but it does not look like a full on supercar.
  21. It lacks sophistication and in this age of digital cars, it is rare and unique.
  22. Kreissieg has high pitch and is valvetronic. If you want louder, go with a straight pipe. Smell and smog can be problem.
  23. Too much trouble. I have seen people putting a towel over the seat bottom.
