Has anyone found a reusable water bottle that fits in the door ahead of the grab handle?

It looks like it needs to be less than ~3" (75mm) in diameter and 9-10" (254mm) in height depending on how much it necks down at the top. This Hydroflask would fit the bill but it's a couple inches too tall.

Thanks in advance for not lecturing me about how Germans don't drink in their cars.

Love folks actually enjoying their rides year round. You won't get a picture published in Panorama Car of the Week since it's got some dirt on it, but wear it with pride!

Just out of interest, assuming it was the right height, how would you manage drinking from that while driving???

It’s probably T-shirt weather for you up there but it’s damn cold for us down here. It does great in the snow with the Alpin5s even with it being RWD.

New wheels (10k)

Numeric Shifter and pedals (1300)

All I want now is coilovers at another 5k yet the car is still nowhere near my garage. This is all without the ppf and ceramic coating that will still need to be done. Quite the expensive hobby/interest.
Someone help me I may have a problem.

edit: I still need snow tires 😱

Which wheels? I still haven't decided.

Looks like we're along the same spiral down the hole of addiction.

@Jturner78 Where did you source that model? I also love the frame. I plan to do something similar with my TYD pics.

I'm taking a gamble with a company in China. I'll keep you guys posted and lyk my thoughts, pricing etc. So far the service has been awesome...like getting a bespoke suit.

@MXNSITH they can be found on Ebay but I found this one on Poshmark, free shipping and no tax, it was only $40. The retail in 2022 when it was released was only $20.

Well despite the GTS doesn't arrive at my house on Wed, it didn't stop my wife from ordering accessories for it. Key blades, I didn't order from the factory, valve stems to match the center lock wheels, and of course a trivia book

Need some help from anyone who has done this mod. I am to the point of rermoving the second sweep hand from the clock face. I have tried the spoon method , but it seems like I am having to apply way more force than I think should be necessary and haven't budged the needle. Am I missing something or is it normal to take a lot of force to pop the hand off??? Many thanks!
