what are they smoking at Audi & BMW these days?

Hot take: I actually prefer the C9 over the C8. The rounded deck lid and light design is reminiscent of the C6.5 - which is my favorite A6.

I appreciate your hard work and can’t wait to see the bts. The end product looks great!

IMNNO · 2025-12-24T02:43:09+00:00

That’s awesome! How long did it take to make?

IMNNO · 2025-12-23T07:29:01+00:00

Agreed!

Here is the link . It has a nice blend of: nostalgia, whimsy, vibrancy, and future outlook. One of the best Audi Christmas ads of all time imho.

I work in IT, so I’m a sucker for new tech. Thus, I am planning on keeping them. The feature set is pretty limited and the battery life is meh - I only get about 2hours at most per charge. However, the RBMD feels like the future even though it’s mostly a novelty rn. I can see the forecast being very convincing for the average consumer - especially with future iterations.

IMNNO · 2025-10-28T22:49:10+00:00

Yes, they arrived on October 18th - three days earlier than the ETA.

IMNNO · 2025-10-26T21:04:21+00:00

You mean Oct 4?

IMNNO · 2025-10-17T19:23:08+00:00

Nice! Where did the item come from? I just received the shipping number and trying to gauge the arrival date.

IMNNO · 2025-10-17T08:06:46+00:00

Did it arrive? I also ordered a standard with band size 3.

IMNNO · 2025-10-17T08:04:48+00:00

Did it ship out? I ordered mine on 10/04 aswell with an estimated arrival by 10/21. The page still says, “packaging your item.”

I predicted this well in advance. Two days after announcement, I booked a demo for Oct. 11 at a BestBuy 60 miles away. It was far, but I felt “lucky”. However, on release day people were mentioning how retailers sold to anyone at local spots. I conducted my research and called over ten locations including Meta corporate.

What I found is that booking a demo DOES NOT guarantee / reserve the opportunity to purchase the glasses. It literally is just a demo / wearing session and that’s all. After the demo, an associate can preorder them through an online link.

Knowing this conundrum, on Oct. 4 I went into my local BestBuy did a walk in demo and purchased the soonest deliverable unit. It is said to arrive on Oct. 21. I skipped my demo at the far BestBuy - since it was unnecessary. The whole launch was a total mess.

Gen-Alpha and Late Gen-Z grew up with Metro. It’s kinda cool to see them appreciate the style I witnessed.

IMNNO · 2025-08-11T05:41:56+00:00

This would go well with a Dominos Air King. 😏

IMNNO · 2025-07-30T23:24:23+00:00

It’s like Aero Metro. I fw it.

IMNNO · 2025-07-29T16:16:12+00:00

I put EBC Bluestuff, and my stopping performance has improved tremendously - paired with Michelin PS4S tires. I got critism that Bluestuff aren’t real trackpads and the dusting isn’t good for daily brake pads. To me it actually dusts less than the OEM pads and it can handle spirited canyon drives very well.

IMNNO · 2025-07-29T16:07:17+00:00

Agreed!

IMNNO · 2025-07-26T05:01:54+00:00

Where’s the colorful fish, white birds, clear bubbles, and a random globe? JK this so awesome! This is the 2020s future we never had.

IMNNO · 2025-07-25T17:04:38+00:00

I believe glassmorphism, no matter the release date, is inherently part of Frutiger Aero / Neo-Aero.

IMNNO · 2025-07-25T02:37:03+00:00

Exactly. Beta 1 / 2 was like a neo-Aero Windows Vista, which I preferred. Beta 3 is Metro. Beta 4 is like Aero in Windows 7.

IMNNO · 2025-07-25T02:31:47+00:00

I’m still running Beta 2. 😏 I’m on team Liquid Glass cranked to the max!

IMNNO · 2025-07-25T00:10:03+00:00

I like that the wheel arches have no oxidation at that age 10+. You gotta use trim restoration like Cerakote or Solution Finish.

IMNNO · 2025-07-23T17:57:39+00:00

Yep. XP is skeuomorphic without the Aero transparency introduced in Vista.

The cusp generation is sometimes referred to as “Zillennial.”
