Some might say just go look at it new in the showroom and walk away..
But I own mine and no PPF on it and agree what looks worst and chip paint of PPF and cost of replacement and...
I have the wide one and glad I do.. Mine is 409HP and driving through the wider stance pillars
is so easy and do not have to worry about hitting mirrors for it is that wide..
And the wider lift gives so much more room to work on when working under .
With the Evora and now the Emira all the...
I have I4 and if not for being 74 with bad knees I would have owned the V6 / 6sp...But living in NJ and so much traffic
I am glad that I own the I4 version..thinking of buy a 6 speed MX5 for few fun times with stick shift fun next year..
Just do not put full force of power washer..This is how I clean my whole body to get dust off before
I dry car ..I use blower to get Most Water off but leave some for towel drying .
I have had it happen few times and reminds me of letting out clutch when first learning to drive stick back in 1969 and

at 45mph and in 7th gear...
In New Jersey we have Sunoco 94 and I run that ..
But if you hear pinging drop it down one gear and see if that stops the Ping..
You have to remember this I4 is only 122 cu in...
That is a lot of work in 7th and 8th for such small motor at times.
No sensor is never going to be as accurate as a dip stick ever was...
To many variables to always be accurate...
I know myself I would give anything to have a visual oil level over sensor metering..
I know with 3oo miles I added 1/2 quart and it has been fine..
Even a level glass would be nice...
I posted earlier on another post and mine was making a clunking noise over bumps and so I used 3M double stick tape
between window and headliner ..I rolled it up to make contact between them all the way across the window
and this stopped the noise...
So today decided to remove wheels and Adams Cermaic coat them and while doing that noticed all A Arms are

all suspension components...I think next time I will use Eastwoods...
