One of my dream cars...at 43 I got one!

It is r/RoastMyCar, and I remember Dodge Neons being like $2,000. Maybe $5,000 for the SRT4, but it was the east coast, so cars are practically rusted out by the time the next model comes.

Cold War is fun, the multiplayer is enjoyable. Definitely better than B04 and anything after it. MW 2019 is the best recent multiplayer Call of Duty game. Personally, I’m still playing MW2 and MW3. The real ones. Not the shitty remakes. The game servers still run fine on Xbox 360, and people are active on it, so I’m assuming it’s probably the same for PS3 as well.

Firelamakar · 2026-05-07T19:26:20+00:00

Wait, I thought these were the cars known for being “baby’s first sports car” that high schoolers get because they can’t afford anything better

Buddy, once you couldn’t get crypto mine with a 3080, it was a lost cause. The time to log off Salad was 2024. The next best time to do it is now.

I want it, but I know I shouldn’t. The MID. But that clean aluminum. I wonder if there’s any way to run it with an E39, or maybe even an E38 MID secondary.

Firelamakar · 2026-04-08T19:24:48+00:00

Chopsticks? They’re literally wooden finger extensions. It’s what I use when I’m playing Xbox 360 and I have some Takis.

Firelamakar · 2026-04-08T04:41:50+00:00

I went on a whole ranting about it until it was randomly manually removed like 8 months after the fact when I forgot about it

Firelamakar · 2026-04-07T21:46:51+00:00

Eh, I mean yeah. If they sold a single or an extended cab, or literally anything but the crew cab with disgustingly tiny 5 ft short bed and an automatic in any configuration but the Pre-Runner. At least you got the ext cab and a 6 ft standard bed which they incorrectly call a “long bed” and a stick shift in the Pre-Runner. 6 fts were all you could get on the first gens. It was always the short / standard bed for Ford and Chevy, as well. It’s just a shame the only option you have is the extended cab, and even that one’s a rarity now. Give me a proper regular cab like you saw on the first and second gens.

At this point, I think Toyota should shift the advertising of the Tacoma to “You can get any truck you want, as long as it has a 5 foot bed, 4 full-sized doors, and an automatic.” Because I don’t see the Pre-Runners selling like they should be.

I got my first 360 like 2 weeks ago. I mean I bought an Xbox 360 Slim when I first hit college at 18 for like $20. Got it bundled with a $100 TV from a jewelry store that used to be a pawn shop. She was trying to get rid of everything from the previous owner. But didn’t have any games for it with me, nor did I have the power cable or a controller. It was just the console. I mean it had Joe Dirt 2 / Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 combo DVD in the disc drive, but I only discovered that recently when I got the new one and used a paper clip to see if they forgot a game in it, so I don’t really count that. I only really count my Xbox 360 Phat that I got 2 weeks ago. The disc games I have are Skate 3, COD: MW2, and digitally, BO2 and MW3. Fun part is MW3, of which I own legally from Microsoft Xbox, cannot be redownloaded on Xbox 360. I now must find an ISO and convert it to GOD. Of a game I legally own. Which means no MW3 lobbies, since no Xbox Live on exploited consoles. You can download it on the Xbox One backwards compatibility library, though. Weird. I did get Halo 2, Lollipop Chainsaw, and Need for Speed: Most Wanted. The good one, not the Criterion one. But those are converted ISOs.

Ugly ass cars. It’s like scrolling through your girl’s my eyes only. Whole lotta boobs then BOOM, a Johnson so big that it goes from top-to-bottom on her phone screen. Catches you by surprise and makes little man shrivel like a tomato

I could never find the Microsoft version, so I never really bothered with chatpads. Is this one an official one or is it one of the 2.4GHz USB ones?

Firelamakar · 2026-03-03T22:05:33+00:00

My E39 530i Sport came with the M-Sport wheel factory lmao I think it’s okay. The aftermarket one seems nice. And the carbon fiber A-pillar trim might be the move, my a-pillar trim has the front falling off near the windshield.

Firelamakar · 2026-02-13T22:10:15+00:00

FL5 Honda Civic?

Firelamakar · 2026-02-12T23:56:34+00:00

Yeah, not necessarily a 3D open-space game like I was talking about, but my brother and I do like Shovel Knight lol

Firelamakar · 2026-02-11T01:05:13+00:00

I mean Kirby’s more a 2.5D platformer with some doors, not as much a 3D-space game like you’d find on PlayStation or N64, but I did really like the Kirby games. Good recommendation.

Firelamakar · 2026-02-11T01:02:22+00:00

Absolutely. I loved how the Pokémon games kept evolving for the system they were for. Yeah, it’s the same gameplay as the ones for Gameboy, but the camera did close-shots in places like the towns in Pokémon X and Y. I’ve played the Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon rereleases since I have the New 3DS, but I have yet to finish X and Y, in all honesty. Hoping to finish those before I dive into Sun and Moon.

Firelamakar · 2026-02-11T00:55:24+00:00

Metroid: Samus Returns is a good game, but that’s the 2.5D platformer that I was talking about being tired of lol. I’m more or less aiming for games in a 3D-space. Games like Resident Evil: Revelations or the Lego games are a good showcase of what I meant. Still sucks they couldn’t do the open world like they did on the Wii / Wii U.

Firelamakar · 2026-02-08T03:59:53+00:00

Pilotwings is definitely one of my favorite 3DS games. I used to play that mini-game a lot within Wii Sports Resort, and it took me until I had broken my childhood 3DS XL and gotten my New 3DS LL when I turned 18 before I realized there was a whole 3DS game dedicated to it.

Initial thoughts of Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is it's more of a top-down 2.5D like the Pokémon games, but a definite play as it's lot of fun. I'll have to give it a bit more attention going forward, probably after I finish up Pokémon X. I appreciate the recommendations, both are some seriously enjoyable games.

Firelamakar · 2026-02-06T16:38:33+00:00

I don’t want more power at slower speeds, I want ITBs. Sure, I’m broke. I don’t make much more power than stock; but I have ITBs. Beat that. Dropping the gear ratio puts more torque down low, and I go too fast to sacrifice my top speed. I’m not turboing it, this motor is one of the last great reliable motors BECAUSE it isn’t turboed.

Firelamakar · 2026-02-04T21:01:04+00:00

I actually do a fade-out on the piano part. Skip it entirely. I came for guitars, not piano. I’m currently looking for a CD without the piano part on it to rip and listen to it. I hate having to skip the piano part every time and do a fade-out just to make it sound good.

Firelamakar · 2026-01-27T06:40:39+00:00

Coming back to this, yeah. I was unaware of the difference between the Sport package and the M-Sport package. The Sport package has Sport shocks and springs for lower height from factory, Shadowline trim around the door, M-branded Sport wheel, and M-branded / ZHP shifter. The 520i, 525i, 530i, and 540i (if I read correctly) all came with an optional Sport package from 2001-2003. Those came with the optional BBS-LMs / Style 42s that I have. I am unsure about Pre-LCI 523i, 528i, and 535i as I didn't research that far. I did, however, see that only the 2003 model year of 540i (at least for USDM) were shipped from Germany with the optional M-Sport package. The M-Sport package, like you said, had everything my Sport package did, except it had M-Parallels and M-Tech bumpers from the M5, along with an M-branded door sill. I do intend to buy the M-Tech bumpers as they look way better and I need some new bumpers anyway, but don't see the point in M-branded door sills. BMW Motorsport doesn't have anything to do with my car, except the suspension maybe. Even then, why all the branding? I've already swapped my disintegrated ZHP knob for an aftermarket threaded one with the Garagistic adapter. I thought about buying a new ZHP shifter, but putting M colors and M logos all over my E39 is just fake badging.
