I heard that the ES is a premium car, not a luxury car, so I always look for premium gas when filling up. I still haven't found any place with luxury gas, wonder what GS and LS drivers use...

Just got back from the mechanic. I got a supercharger on my ES because it takes forever to charge the car so it will charge faster now

Yesterday was "May the 4th be with you" day, not April 1st.

I use N for night time driving and D for day time... For some reason when I put it in Race Mode it goes backwards?

I think you have a defective car. Bring it back to the dealer and tell them you have a lemon.

Bob, but do you have a hover board in your trunk for your spare?

That's probably why you have to keep putting gas in your car often, I put luxury gas in mine once and I'm good for at least a year.

I told them I had a lemon and they offer me water and sugar... Still not sure what to do with that. I also declined the work to fix the Race car mode, apparently I'm missing a muffler bearing which isn't covered under warranty. So confused what to do next.

Sounds like there's a loose nut behind the wheel.

You use a nut to hold your wheel? I use paper clips or sometimes Velcro. That way I can pull the wheel off and use it as a spare when I get a flat.

Do you use nuts, paper clips or Velcro for your wheel? I thought they were super glued on permanently.

But if you'd had gotten the TRD sticker, you could have +10 hp.
