I'm sure you could. I believe it has to do with removing the underpanel. Haven't had to change the oil yet.

"Trans and diff changes are around 500 or so, depending on if you supply the fluid."

I'd seriously be doing all that shit myself.

If you can afford the car.... you probably can afford the fluid changes!

If they are that expensive... there has to be a good reason. Like price gouging!

You've got a list of impressive vehicles there! You already have had an M3 and IS-F, so go try something different like the GT-R; another M3 would be a repeat.

P.S. You should line up all your vehicles and take a photograph. White NSX + white Hayabusa =

It's called "GTR tax".

The GT-R over the M3 all day long. The GT-R is a better looking car and in a class by its self. The M3 looks like ever BMW on the road until you get near it. For the money the GT-R
