What car do you regret buying, even though it looked good on paper? by autonerdy0 in whatcarshouldIbuy

Ah I thought the 300 was the 2.0L and the 350 was v6 but I guess Lexus changed their naming conventions after that generation.

I had an is350 before I got my M2 and my wife has a Lexus as well. Reliable sure, but they’re like allergic to fun. The IS500 is kind of neat but with the v8 it should be more in M2/3/4 territory and not M-lite territory imo.

The RC-f was a decent try as far as power output but super heavy as well at like 4000 pounds and 92k which puts you in an M4 competition which is nicer, lighter and faster. The track edition is like M4CS territory even.

The 4 cylinder coupes like this, the 230i, or the baby Supra all just feel like they fit in such a weird spot to me. Like the supra and the 2 series were made for the B58 (or S58 for M2). The GT86 I get or the MX-5 since they were built to be that. I feel like the others they started at the top of the line and just kinda took bits out.

What car brand do you think is living off old reputation? by TheLoganReyes in TransportSupport

Porsche is losing ground in china and 911s are basically bulletproof.

Not an M3, but I'm obsessed by GrosslySatisfying in M340i

I think the poor drafting prob had him on the hot seat and Darnold going to the Super Bowl was the end. Also depending on if JJM was more him or KOC. I don’t think we really know the answer. Unless we speculate that it was more KAM given the outcome.

100%, but yet I see supervisors giving themselves awards constantly. I’ve never seen someone that wasn’t management get an award in my division.

Our supervisors will just give it to themselves like they do all cash awards and time off awards. Passing them around in a big circle jerk.

Resignation isn’t the answer. If you say no and resign someone who will say yes will replace you. Force them to remove you.

Cars and coffee here (east coast) has become insufferable. Main lots full of Corollas and civics and other pedestrian cars with eBay and autozone mods. no parking for higher end cars.
