Honda 1.5T engines are having fuel dilution problems. Many owners around the world reporting gasoline in their oil, bubbles on the dipstick, and strong gasoline smell coming from their cars.
First model years. Nope. #neveragain

First year C7 was fine for me, first year Mustang was not. So I will likely buy the first year mid engine Corvette if it looks like a good deal.Johnny_P wrote: ↑Sun Apr 29, 2018 10:08 amCorvetteWaxer wrote: ↑Sun Apr 29, 2018 10:06 am

Aston is across the street and this Vanquish had nice yellow highlight trim to coordinate with the yellow brake waxable calipers!
