I once drove 3 miles home with $9000 cash to pay a contractor and MY GOD was the 50' walk out of the bank to my car terrifying not to mention the drive home.

My XS has had issues with dust getting into the faceid lens and making faceid fail to work in direct sunlight works fine inside ever time, get direct sunlight on the sensor and it can’t unlock. It’s infuriating. I actually had to replace my phone due to some other issue (I think I dropped it particularly badly or…

Damn thats a sweet setup you’ve got. I’m rocking a 2008 2.0t version of the B7 recommended by Lawrence. Its oh so stock except for a upgraded rear swaybar, some sticky summer tires, and some interior upgrades (B8 alcantara sport seats, RNS-E Mk2 Nav radio with a custom firmware). Its been my daily for 6 years and my…

Since this is my wheelhouse and since my almost-exact-car was recommended. Get the Audi, but get the 3.2 UNLESS, and ONLY UNLESS you don’t mind the possibility of catastrophic engine issues. The 2.0t is WAY more moddable (and will be cheaper than that unicorn status 3.2 6mt wagon with Ti package(!!) and Exclusive…

Or, you know, get her a car that won’t break down as much?

WTF are you talking about?

Sounds like your friends picked shitty spouses (or maybe they’re the shitty spouse). I don’t have any married friends who shit talk their spouse on the regular, or are subservient for fear of their wrath. I listen to my wife, she listens to me. She tends to have the upper hand on some decisions and I on others. If…

Well the hills downtown are their own special form of hell with a stick, I’ll grant you that. Going up the hill on Cherry to get to I5 with a fully loaded A4 with a measly 2.0t does in fact get quite hairy, and lots of clutch feathering is needed, but its not the end of the world. The only thing that worries me is…

Yuuuup. Seattle has some absolutely atrocious traffic...and yet I prefer driving my 6MT Avant over my wife’s Q7. And the 6MT avant used to be hers (she grew up driving stick) until she decided she no longer wanted to drive a stick and got herself an Automatic. I inherited the avant and sold my Sedan (also a 6MT A4)…

“I’ve read an awful lot about Teslas just outside their warranty having big time battery issues and expensive “hardware” issues.”

And, just to add to my own comment, if this behavior bothers you (you know, discriminatory business practices) then don’t patronize places that engage in them. Now in some circumstances thats unavoidable, but there are thousands of car dealerships around so that shouldn’t be an issue unless you’re looking for…

Lying about being part of a protected class doesn’t magically make you part of a protected class. A judge would toss your case out of court so fast once you admitted you lied about being part of the class.

Stick to cars amirite??

You spelled Bioware wrong.

You don’t know how any of this works do you?

*pearl clutching intensifies*

How is wasting $15k on anything considered a “steal”? like, walk me through the requirements of a buyer sho sees this pile of trash and says, yea I’ll drop $15k (probably over 6 years, but I digress) on this. that seems worth it.”

Except the cost is more than just demand. Govt subsidy, market pricing (based on geopolitical climate) all play a part.

People exploiting high demand wasn’t invented in the 80s, my man, and its not nor has it ever been exclusive to Capitalism. Human beings taking advantage of other human beings has been around since the beginning of history.

These people have values?
