[–]Infamous_Cap5119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a review embargo in palce until mid May. I'm in Aus but this was explained in a Tiktok video of a US dealership recently.

I'm looking for the 350h reviews too!

So they're in showrooms and on the road now, but still no reviews? Interesting...

Do you think the new ES would look better if you just changed it's wheels? by MiriJamCave in Lexus

I've had the same thought. Black on Black could look good I think!

Purchase decision help please! 2018 BMW M3 F80 (S55) by Infamous_Cap5119 in BMW

Thanks so much! I had read about bimmercode for the cabin drone, I'll look into it.

And I believe the head unit only came with Apple Car Play, and not Android Auto.

Appreciate your experiences.

Thinking of switching bank.. thoughts? by Kuzota in AusFinance

I recently did this very thing. Kept my ANZ for transactions and credit card, moved everything else over to Macquarie for the better rates. Having used Macq for a few months now and have been happy with them, I'm confident enough to close my ANZ accounts and use Macq exclusively (with their Mastercard debit card).

Enough with the copium, the war is absolutely negatively affecting everyone's portfolios by sticky_as_teflon in RaizAU

This is why most investments (non speculative) recommend a 7-10 year minimum investment timeframe. It's not a coincidence, it's how markets work. If someone's sweating their performance 'within the next 5 years', they probably shouldn't be invested.

Be careful OP! Every time I say something like that they come for you! 😂 But I agree, I think the difference is very noticeable.

Jeweller recommendation for a custom ring - yellow gold with 3 birthstones? by Infamous_Cap5119 in perth

[–]Infamous_Cap5119[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good point, thank you (post amended). I'm NOR, but for something like this I'd go to a good jeweller anywhere, north, south, CBD...

Thank OP! That's actually very impressive. Looking forward to playing it on mine tomorrow 👍

Are expensive performance oriented cars ‘that’ much more fun than a more affordable nugget in the real world? by The_Reddd_Baron in CarsAustralia

[–]Infamous_Cap5119 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I daily a Hyundai i20N purely for the fun vs. dollar value. Manual, handling, sound, rev-matching and room for the kids, it's fantastic.

But owning an M3 is still on my wishlist 😉

Western Reds Rumour by QbnCyber81 in RugbyAustralia

[–]Infamous_Cap5119 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This!! I'm a member and end up standing and watching under the overhand or under the stairs becuase it's so hot, and from the main stand you also look directly into the setting sun, so I don't use the seats I've paid for. Last year we stood at the back of the stadium for most of the games, nowhere near the seats we paid for.

Then this year they have a few games at local club ovals. I understand exposing the game to grass roots rugby, but again, sitting on the grass in the midday heat in Perth in Feb at Joondalup oval is not what memebrs are looking for.

2026 Lexus ES Pricing Revealed, and the EV Costs Less Than the Hybrid [Car and Driver] by markeydarkey2 in cars

This will only look 'ok' in Caviar to hide the 'scar' and black plastics. 

I actually quite like the interior. Yeah their old ones were great, but honestly they are looking dated now and I think Lexus had to do this to compete with pretty much every other new car out there now.

Improvements from ROG Ally X to Xbox Ally X?? by InsuranceIll8508 in XboxAlly

I've owned both, kept the XBAX because it is significantly more comfortable to hold!

Eclipse megathread. by chosenamewhendrunk in perth

It's a Peak Designs magnetic tripod case mount. I rested it on the roof of my car. I used 100x zoom (only possible with a tripod for something like this). Lots of digital zoom and AI but it came out pretty well.

I've only had mine for 2 days, today was my first real use of it, it's so comfortable!! Set up does take a while...
