    Nah, it was because it burnt all the engine oil.

    I think my Eagle has been in an accident. The pinstripes on the passenger fender and door are different from the rest of the car, the passenger door has more rust than any other body panel, the grille is wrong, the bumper doesn’t have guards (making me think someone ordered a replacement and didn’t install guards), the right headlight mount is newer than the left, and the hood doesn't sit quite right and has sun weathering that isn’t present anywhere else on the car (it may be from a different car. It also has chalk similar to the type used in scrapyards on the underside).

    Could be worse, could be all twisted up real bad, and um.... you do check the oil often right?

    Yeah, I do. It just burns oil extremely fast. I need to get new piston rings or valve seals or something. It also needs a new valve cover gasket, as it still has the factory-installed gasket, which is really leaky.

    The first-generation Supra is the best Supra, change my mind (impossible).

    So are the other Supras (except the A80, it's too overrated, but it's still a good car in itself).

    Many comments suggest using LFP battery. Although LFP batteries do have better durability and safer at 100% charge, they tend to self-discharge at different rates, that's the reason Tesla recommend regular 100% charge to calibrate the BMS

    The new Panamera reminds me of a certain Hirochi:

    Repainting them is sort of ruinning them , as @bussin.buses said. And it's just a New paint. The bluesmobile is an Actual retired police Monaco.
