So today my McIntosh MA9000 arrived at the dealer with a huge hole in the box!...

Nope, do not accept it. Get a new one.

@992Sam Do you by any chance have a 992 generation Porsche 911?

Ha... I do, I guess I'm not the most creative at profile names. 

 

Beautiful!

 

I've been trying to convince myself this would make a good Daily Driver for a while now. My fun car is a 2016 GT4.

I've nearly put 12000 miles on it in under a year and it's been 100% reliable... there was one electronic glitch that was addressed with a software update.  These things are reliable and meant to be driven... the guys that accumulate 12000 miles in 5 years are the ones that get the maintenance issues. 

 

Oh, you don't need to convince me of the reliability. The Porsches I've owned have also been the most reliable cars I have owned. The GT4 included, except the gearbox recall, which I fixed by having aftermarket gears installed that are a) stronger and b) have better ratios. I drove a 997 C4S year round in MN and I never once had a problem caused by the car that prevented me from driving around. Too much snow was a problem, but that's not the cars fault.
