I like your taste in cars and garages!😁

Throw me into the camp that is simply not impressed with the KEF Audio system. I really was excited because KEF seems to make decent home speakers, however, I feel this system is ok at best for a premium upgrade. I reset everything, and I will agree that there is plenty of bass at 0, but it is...

Welp - the bad news is that I did not receive the car I ordered. BUT, the good news is that my dealership just received a '25 that was configured very similarly, but in my original first choice color combo! That said, I picked up my SENECA BLUE over TAN V6 Manual last Friday from World...

I have been in touch with my dealership regularly the past few weeks, because my order has been in limbo as well. However, in a massive stroke of luck for me, they happened to recently receive a few pre-tariff 2025 V6 manuals last week, one of which I really liked a lot. So I inquired about...

Bingo! This is my other concern. If the car arrives, will there be any long term support? 6 months ago, I had no doubts about Lotus remaining in the US. Now I wonder if they'll stay. Heck, I wonder if Porsche will stay.

F***! F***! F***! :mad: I was afraid of this.
