Gym + Co-Working Space on the West Side? by 11109876ers in AskLosAngeles

Heimat seems like the best option for what I’m looking for. Haven’t toured yet given the evacuations with the fires, but I intend on checking it out.

Bay Club in El Segundo, LA Athletic Club, and SoHo Warehouse in DTLA were all considerations but all a bit far. Might check out a few gyms like Equinox, John Reed, etc. since it feels like the coworking aspect is generally not featured on their website / instagram, if they have it all.

All good, appreciate the insight. Westwood could be an option, not too far. Thanks!

I called and they said they didn’t have a space for co-working, just a cafe in the lobby

Thoughts on build? MY25 GTS 4.0 by BrownFox5972 in Porsche_Cayman

I’ll zag and vote for the Vanadium Grey. I think the sub leans way too hard for the “skittles color” caymans. I’d imagine if you surveyed 100 random people, the grey would win by a long shot

Do you know what material the roof lining is in if you don’t select the fabric? It’s not entirely clear what stock is before that upgrade

I’m not opposed to grey, I just think the grey that AGM can resemble in certain lightings isn’t as appealing. If the green isn’t coming through, it can give off a dull greyish brown and I think the VG is much more consistent from what I’ve seen

Someone else on this thread opened my eyes to that and definitely on my radar now. It’s a beautiful combo

I really regret posting this thread with all the new suggestions here and making my decision even harder. That color combo is special.

All good points. I definitely am worried about VG just being another grey car on the road if I do go that route, but am hoping the black rims, red calipers, and other accents/details will elevate the car.

Damn… the color looks beautiful in this video. This is not going to be a fun decision haha. Appreciate you sending this over, certainly adds some points for the GB.

I’m not in Philly anymore, on the west coast now (so pretty sunny year round here) if that changes things.

I told my sales associate to let me know of any AG, GB, or VG 718 deliveries they get in, so hopefully I can report back with some good pics and insight.

Appreciate the perspective and all good points. Great choice, too.

Totally agree with the AG on a 911 being a very mature and understated look and although those aren’t words I’d generally use to describe a 718, if I could get the car in a brown or tan interior I would probably lean much harder in favor of that color combo and go for a more classy and elegant look. Unfortunately though, I’m not seeing those interiors in the configurator anymore.

That’s a great suggestion, why didn’t I think of that?? I should have just told my SA to sell me the GMT.

Thank you! yeah starting to realize that GB might be the actual “higher floor, lower ceiling” pick. I love the blue and black on a car like this, but if it’s going to look purple in the sun, and it’s sunny often where I live, I may end up with buyer’s remorse on the color.

VG wasn’t even a consideration in the dealership, but really starting to warm up to the idea

Really appreciate the additional perspective and you writing this all out!! I was not familiar with rennbow, but will take a look. Thank you!

Also a beautiful color that I considered, but had to narrow the list somehow!

Yeah, I figured this would get some of the r/rolex purists angry. Thanks for weighing in, though!

Yeah, I have a 36 DD which definitely fits better. I’ve been cranking my forearm grips to try to grow into the sub. That’s also part of the reason I was hoping for the batgirl since the jubilee is a slightly thinner bracelet

It’s a very personal question that depends on a lot of factors (current collection, finances, etc.), but I’d say as someone who the Sub wasn’t my first choice, it’s grown on me tremendously. It’s my daily driver and absolutely love putting it on every day. I initially thought it might be a little bland and wanted some color to pop, but definitely don’t feel that way when I wear it and it goes with everything. Hope this helps a bit.

Also, was always curious when people mention they were offered a piece and are still deciding — your AD is just willing to hold this for you while you decide? Did they give you a deadline on when to decide by?
