Same with friends having the same car. My friend has a beater 320 and there is always friendly banter between us (his car being in pretty bad condition aesthetically inside and out and it has a leaking heater core. But his car was only $2k CAD and is manual).

His rear pads were seizing and turns out his car was missing all the dust caps for the slide pins. Luckily I kept my old ones when I swapped my fronts to brass bushings, so I just gave him mine
