This whole thing is a bit disturbing to me since I thought stealing rodios, car batteries and gas was a thing of the past. It does look like somebody tried to pop your gas cap open when it was locked. Maybe to steal the gas since if they wanted to vandalize the car, the could have just keyed...

I'm pretty sure the invisible gas cap was an option for the NYC market. It was to deter people from stealing it. It's a pilot project for the full pre-vandalized package coming soon to US markets.

I drove my bright yellow Porsche around CT for three years with a European Delivery plate in front. I even went to Canada and back. I have four cars with no front plate and never had an issue. (Probably just jinxed myself). Not sure anybody cares unless you are pulled you over for something...

The audio in the Emira is so bad that I have to take my car back to the dealer 100 miles away to see if it's broken. If it turns out my audio works as designed I am going to be pretty dissapointed.

The trunk is a seroius problem with this car. It is way too hot to be practical. In fact, this car is probably not long lived for my garage because the storage is just too small and too hot to be practical for any trips that require transporting much. I took my Cayman on a three month road...

Looks like bleeding should be straightforward. Just do it. There will always be a first time for you so worrying about it is futile. I've used the Motive on a few different cars, works fine except watchout you don't make a mess and get braker fluid on painted surface. I would also go with...

Sounds like the alternator to me. Starting after a full charge. ..then starter/battery fine. Fluky error messages..l.ow battery as you are driving or when the car still has some ..but not sufficient strength to start car. I wouldn't worry about the speccific messages since modern cars are...

I don't own a Miata but being a sports car owner for 30 years with a variety brands, I can't remember meeting anybody who didn't love their Miata. Given the price points, it's doesn't seem a particularly fair comparison.

I'm never going to look at my starter button the same. I am not sure that is a good thing. My car makes me feel like a oversexed pervert.

I've seen the shadow gey in person twice and liked it. It was on my list of possible configurations. I went with seneca blue but shadow grey with the red interior was really tugging at my heart strings..

I like to make things more complicated than they need to be. :p

Agreed. Slide thumb under, push with index finger. Easier than inserting a key and turning. The whole freeting over it was just journalists creating fake drama.

Soon!

? As far as I know, manufacturer's have warranties, not dealers for new cars. My guess is it has a normal warranty most of us would expect.

The Cayman doesn't even include navigation or power folding mirrors in the base GTS specification. There are lots of ways to keep the base price down and keep the options list long and pricey. Painted calipers, ... We all now that Porsches are "a la carte" cars. I have an Aston and the...
