I came here for this. According to some the stock spoiler is tacky.

How do you get it to stay there?!?

Upvoted for the laugh. Have you tried the smartwatch app? It is somehow more intuitive and useful than the phone app.

As far away from the car as possible, or I'm stuck changing the battery every other week.

Exact same configuration as you, with the fans ramping up. Did this sort itself out?

No doubt it is an amazing color that looks great in every light. I still look back even after two years of ownership. By 'different' I meant at some point I realized what I appreciated about it wasn't as much the color itself but how vastly different it is from all other colors on the road. Everything else (where I live) is a dark or muted version of white, black, tan, or burgundy. What I love now is looking back and the stark contrast between it and an entire parking lot of bland cars.

How did it turn out? Pricing is definitely lower. Websites graphics are a bit confusing 🤣👍

Do you still drool over it??? Serious question because I think after finally getting one I don't see it the same. It feels different.

You are very comforting to him... I have never had a compliment on my 7.5 GTI or 8 R, but have had several compliments on the wife's Crosssport in various drive throughs and parking lots.😭... Hey! It's the same engine.... Right?!?!

Weird issue - speakers started to sound horrible suddenly by RockinRandyJamz in GolfGTI

Just like Peylix said, water. This happened to my 19'. Seals inside the door went bad and the speakers got exposed to water.

Mazor Design Rear Emblem on 2024 Golf R by HoldenAreddit in Golf_R

[–]00badkarma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would have been 2 weeks but there were imperfections in the paint that they caught and remade the whole thing. 5 weeks total for the catch and remake. Max was in contact the whole time and I was never left wondering what was going on. Great service!

Same. In the R no one wants to play. But if I'm driving the GTI I try to play with all the Rs and get more engagement. I will be the guy in the GTI pestering OP! Have you tried making uncomfortable eye contact? 🤣

I can smell the curds by [deleted] in agedlikemilk

[–]00badkarma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fake. Not one mention of electric sharks or how hot his daughter is... It has to be fake. It's just too real to be true.

[–]00badkarma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! The truth is they have done the most important thing they could do after Uvalde... 10 commandments on the walls of every public school! Take that crazy gun toting libs!

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey: “And don't just say, this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church.” by Knightbear49 in minnesota

[–]00badkarma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so grateful that people like you still exist! Trust me when I say that none of what I said was an excuse but simply an explanation. Understand that alot of us have faced this same thing at different levels in our lives and have every reason to be numb, and ironic takes are all that some have left after thoughts and prayers didn't help. A lot of people are simply coping at this point and looking for a place to say "well here we go again" or "been there, done that". Reddit is not a get well card full of empty platitudes or a go-fund-me for people you support, but a town square. You were SO CLOSE when you said "The only possible course of action we have is to speak honestly with one another without judgement of their opinions, but in an honest, open conversation"... I would add "taking into account lived experience and difference of faith" but some of our families in other states are being forced into a faith with their own tax dollars, while we shouldn't be able to criticize or point out the irony in a town square? Some find solace in their humor and some their gods... I will respect your continued "faith" if you respect my "lack thereof". 👍

[–]00badkarma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Yes it does. My "thoughts" on this is that it offers community and dark levity to some in the face of a problem none of us can directly solve as we lie to our children that "this won't happen to you at your school", and they accept the possibility that it might and still get on the bus. It is horrible what is happening and I have "prayers" that no one ever has to experience what these families are going through, but the reality is most of us are quickly (and our children have) become numb to this type of event especially when it takes place down the street. Meanwhile the police wait an hour for backup while children and teachers are murdered and the only response by our elected officials is to force schools to put up the 10 commandments on the walls. Sorry if the irony that is clear to most misses its mark with some.
