    I know those are expensive Advans but damn do I hate those wheels. That said I do love that gen of Supra.

    Agreed. Those wheels ruin the car. At least it's an easy fix.

    What's wrong with RHD? It's just as easy to drive.

    I think insurance is a bit higher for RHD cars. Makint left hand turns if nobody is in the passenger seat might prove to be quite the annoyance :p

    If you have to get into a parking garage you have to either jump over the center console or get out of the car.

    and parking garages where leaning over is a necessity to dial in a code or use a fob. That was my biggest complaint about my old mini. Actually, that was my only complaint

    I have to do these everyday, so owning a RHD would just be a huge PITA.

    A friend of mine daily drives a Silvia. Keeps a little claw in the car to reach through the driver window. Use that and EZ pass, problem solved.

    On a related note, I had a friend who owned one and would reverse through drive-thrus. Which is pretty awesome.

    (also, we have Central Park and Checkers around here, and both chains have bizarre double drive thrus, so you could just go to those)

    Meh, I think it's pretty smart if it's late at night and access to the actual restaurant is closed or something.

    Never mind the fact that you'll never be able to pull away from street parking.
