Funny but I can see how easy that might happen. Exact same looking car with same issues etc...nothing like using the last 4 of a VIN just to be safe.
You mention a good quote on tint, I have a GSW and am going to shop tint soon - probably this summer. What did you find ballpark numbers or a good rate from your shopping ?

OP reminds me of my father. He has an old 90's Olds Aurora with the FWD V8 setup.
The thing should have been junked years ago with well over 300k miles, but since he's in his 70's and all the kids have moved away, I think he takes pleasure in always having to take it in for various repairs.
Gives him reason to continuously socialize with the various mechanics...those service writers and mechanics are very patient people.
Likes spending time at a dealer ... ? Sorry you lost me.
As for humbly showing up here to search car problems that make Lexus look better ? Don't feel defensive or sell them short- Lexus / Toyo does okay on their own behalf.
Heck, my '74 CJ-5 was a benchmark for trouble free and low cost of ownership experience.
VW Vortex-
Have not been there much recently but there was plenty of chatter and info on the roof leaks.
I wonder if they drew a line in the sand or as sometimes the case, posts get a bit off-track , off-truth or ugly.... From what I've seen there, if you want help or info on things, response is pretty hit n miss. Mazdas247 was similar although somewhat better.
