I went through some medical things recently that were pretty scary, but in the end everything turned out alright. It scared my wife though, enough that she just decided one day “We need to get you your car.”
With our budget, I was shopping for a used Route 1 or a Premium with the big battery awd and the glass roof. Then I saw it. A 2023 GT… that I could afford! It was at a Toyota dealership up in Seattle (I’m in Oregon). I was immediately dreamy eyed, I didn't care that it was white.
We called the next morning, drove up there in our Bolt and had a really smooth transaction with the dealership.
Holy smokes what great car! The white is way better than I thought when I saw it in person. Sorry if this was long, but I’m pretty excited.

That's not just any white. ?
I think you are looking at the sweet Tri-coat Metallic Platinum White, otherwise known as Star White.

I think it's a beautiful car. Especially through polarized sunglasses. ?
It is Star white and it’s the most shimmery tri-coat I’ve ever seen. I’m really impressed and I like it.
It turns out I really like the flower power wheels in person as well, I wasn’t sure about them from the pictures I’d seen.

Welcome and hope your health stays well. I have owned a 23 GT for over a year now. I have not had any problems with it so far, I decided to sit out the first couple generations to get the bugs worked out. Enjoy!

Welcome to the MME club. Your new ride is identical to mine - same year, model, and color. I hope you have as much fun with your pony as I do with mine.

That is a great little story; congrats! Stay plugged in, here. You will inevitably have a question or three. This is hands down the best community forum I have ever been on. There are some freaky smart people here....not naming names, Lol.
Yeah, I’ve found a lot of great info and advice here already.
Bought the A2Z NACS DC adapter.
Bought the 2” ramps to allow me to pull further into Tesla supercharger stalls without scraping the lip.
Adjusted the two little rubber bumpers that push up against the hood when the frunk is closed.
If you're a nerd, post your VIN here: https://www.macheforum.com/site/thr...are-willing-to-look-up-info-for-others.10230/

If you're NOT a nerd, never look at that thread lol
Haha, challenge accepted.
