I remember seeing the hash mark on the older 1LEs and thought it looked cool.. helps distinguish the car (if there weren't enough already). I kinda want to remove my hood wrap and add the hash mark...

Yeah I went from my '16 1SS into an Audi S3, tracked it and was disappointed in its lack of prowess, got a Porsche Boxster 718S intending to...

Reading the manuals it seems like the recommendation is to still replace the rear axle fluid after the first track event, and the track event should still come after 1500 break-in miles. That's what...

I just came from a boxster 718S .. when I got it, I compared it to a 2014 CS and a 2016 Cayman GTS. I thought the 718S was the most fun out of all three to drive, so I got it. I just traded it in...

I plan on sticking with stock setup until the tires are toast, then put some reasonable street tires on the stock wheels (eg: Conti Extreme Contact DW) then get a set of 18s with NT01s or similar. ...

I have the S3, not S5 so I can't say as much about the S5. If you wanted a very nice, usable, beautiful, quick car, the S5 would be fantastic. The M4 would only really gain value over the S5 if you...

I asked around and couldn't get anyone to sell me a GT350 at MSRP so I got the 1LE. I think the GT350 is still really desirable but the 1LE is the clear winner due to the huge price difference. I...

I plan on driving my car exactly how it is. the 2016 1SS I had was the only car out of my last 3 (Audi S3, Porsche 718 Boxster S) that I didn't destroy a front tire on in a one-day track event. ...

I typically like some contrast with my car/wheels and some details but I think the hood is a bit too fast & furious for me and I like how the darker paint minimizes this effect. nice looking car!
