before anyone says he ran a "yellow". Based on his speed, the light will stay yellow until he cross the other side.
and the Sienna did not look like it was slowing down at all when it was RED...She/he was either a psychic or ran a red.

it is always funny to read the comments
Sorry, but you were clearly at fault here, irresponsible male. Had you been paying attention to the road, then you wouldn't have hit the poor lady and almost ended her life. Looks to me like you're attempting insurance fraud here at the expense of an innocent woman. You may have fooled Reddit, but you can't fool a professional feminist. You won't get away with attempted murder of my race that easily.

I'm a bit surprised he continued to track straight and not try to swerve right. He even moved the wheel to the left a little bit.I wonder if this guy does autox... I'd expect more if he does.
Just picked up replacement suspension for my aging F&F Type 1s 
Never been so excited for a suspension upgrade before - my current setup feels like mush and I didn't truly realize it until I drove my mom's AP2 a few days ago.
Stock AP2 struts (~25,000 miles) w/ Espelir springs for $300 (also included some stock AP2 springs) - I've heard great reviews (comfort, drop, and performance).
I plan on installing them next weekend and getting an alignment while I'm at it.

summers up here in New England and spring/fall/winters down in FL
There's no doubt in my mind that my F&F Type 2s were worn out and needed replacement, but the stock shock & spring combo feels glorious in comparison.
Car feels planted, bumps aren't as sharp, and overall feels much more controllable in high & low speed cornering.
A+ for the whole $300 I spent on the shock / spring combo.

That's actually exactly how I felt about the espelir combo that Dave just bought from me through Chip...
ALthough I was able to go lower with the buddy clubs...I felt like it wasn't an upgrade in ride quality.

I installed them on a rainy Saturday and I'm pretty happy with the results.

I'm curious...which espelir did you all get? Active super down? I could have sworn the guy I bought it from said they were discontinued, but it doesn't seem that way.

Mod bug has hit me hard this month 
If all goes as planned, I'm picking up a Comptech exhaust system tomorrow morning
Since having this exhaust system on my old 3G TL, I've always loved their exhaust systems and just couldn't help myself.
Few clips I pulled from YouTube:
