New member from Long Island, NY

Thank You
I dealt with Eastcoast Toyota in NJ on 2 occasions now and can say only good things about them but it's always good to compare with other fellow members.

 

Good eye, they are SSR integrals. thanks. Yeah the early 90's were a great time for imports, MR2's, 240's , 300zx, RX7, supra, celicas.. definitely the golden age of japanese sports cars.

the first car I owned in stick was an '88 sentra coupe, 4 speed!
but the first time i drove stick was on a friends 1st gen tacoma back in the late 90's

99 vette? how do you like it? I love the look of the c5's, probably my favorite of the modern generations.

 

what kind of deal did you get on yours?

 

Yeah i was really surprised when they came back at $30 / month.. which is a little over 1000 for the life of the lease. I thought it was much cheaper. When I financed my vette through Bethpage FCU they offered it to me for like $250 total and just rolled it into the loan over 5 years.
If I ever lease something in the future It will probably not be as niche as trd tacoma in 6 speed so hopefully better deals.

I have read some of the threads from the guys with issues, trying not to worry about it. If something goes wrong its under warranty, and if something goes REALLY wrong Ill fight them to get a new truck or a refund.

 

$1000 out of pocket and I got mine 16 sr5(auto running boards hitch and some other goodies) at $380 a month. Most likely not the greatest deal but I got it exactly a year ago when there was not too much inventory available.

 

ok so not that far off from mine considering NY taxes, and TRD vs SR5
Just hit 300 miles on the truck, all stop & go.. trying to break the clutch in ASAP so I can run through the gears

Might pick up the URD short shifter kit & looking at some wheel/tire packages. Probably 19-20" with a lower profile tire. Ill keep the stock wheels for if I ever go offroading. Need some black plastidip too for the chrome grill & emblems.

 

I wanted to give it that off road look so I threw some 18"Fuel Vector with Nitto Terra Graplers on changed the sr5 stock suspention to trd bilstain shocks springs and I'm loving it
I'm also gonna do the radio with some speakers. Already purchased Pioneer nex8200 and waiting for my speakers.

 

Congratulations!
