    My car was just under $58000 MSRP, and I get 1 year NASA Membership included so I can bring this car to a track and get free experience with an instructor for a day.

    I'm looking forward to the track day, it'll be an experience of a lifetime for me.

    It's over. My problem was Dealership letting one go because "Parts" was on strike too.

    FWIW...

    Break-in done, early fluid/filter changes C/W and final checks complete...so I finally spread her legs wide open. Believe what you see on those videos, this car is truly amazing.

    ...and this, coming from a guy who "drives" a work vehicle with 56K lbs of thrust almost every night. ;)

    I finally got my supra passed 500 miles on the odometer, another 500 to go with the break in. No fluid changes yet

    I brought it to the local mountains this past weekend and became a celebrity for a day.....Or at least my car did
