Default F-Type Haiku

lizzardo provided the impetus for this thread and while I’ve just returned from a party [in other words not necessarily at my best right now]:

v6 8 or 4
throw caution and speed to wind
by sight, seat, exhaust

To mod or not to.
Warranty concerns be damned.
Live life or die now.

Roar, kitty-cat, roar.

Mine's better than yours.
Or do I have that backwards?
Whatever. Let's drive.

“Traditional” Haiku is 5-7-5, but if you’re happy with the way it is....who am I to argue?

Let's switch over to iambic pentameter. That would seem more appropo culturally.

My mind always works in Limerick Mode, for some reason I can create them out of thin air. No one will pay me for this skill, I did win a drink once...

When first I tried making Haiku,
My writing just wouldn't do
It seems that my pen
Won't do it again
Just once for this forum, I'm through.

Hi Gang.

As always the contributions here are a savor when dealing with dealers. I will save my thoughts on my local dealer as that just will not be a productive, but I can say I had thought owning the halo car of a brand would garner a little more special treatment at a dealer, since it's the car that gets the most attention and people come up to you and ask you how you like it and if you are having a good experience, etc. (bubble burst)

So I have a 2014 F-Type S Convertible with ~63k miles on it and alas I too now have the super charger rattle and I will need to replace my isolator.

My shop asked if I knew off hand if there are any special tools needed to get the supercharger off, as they mentioned other older/other models needed special curved wrenches to get around parts during the disassembly. They said they would check, but I was curious if anyone else here has had the work done with an independent shop that was nice enough to explain the process and if any special tools were needed.

Also incase anyone was wondering, my dealer quoted me $2459.11 for parts and labor. I do not have the extended warranty, which I'm almost glad I don't even have to attempt that fight.
