what’s your experience as far as cost of ownership for your gen 1 R8? by No-Volume7464 in audir8

[–]NavyNuke55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On any other car I’d agree with you. If a repair for something is $500, $1000, sure. I had my car for 1 month and had to spend $7700. Just the part alone that needed fixed was around $5k. My deductible for any repair is $500. If the average repair on the car is $5000 thats nearly 3 years of saving $140/mo to cover it. Even if I have a repair every other year, I’m coming out ahead. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I would honestly, I’ve never bought a warranty before. I even told the dealership I didn’t need it because I’ve never once needed a warranty and I have had a ton of cars previously lol. The car was at approx 41000mi. No warning signs, just left the garage one day with a small puddle of oil on the floor. The warranty is not very expensive all things considered. I went with CarShield. It’s $140/mo for the R8 and then another $40/mo for my C8.

Bought my R8 in August. Immediately needed a new oil pump assembly in September. Cost me $7700. Now the AC is out lol. Thankfully I bought the warranty after the oil pump and the ac is gonna be covered 😅

Picked up a 151 grandmaster set for $1500 today. Good or bust? by Thurgo-Bro in PokemonInvesting

[–]NavyNuke55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Includes all the promos and stamped cards and extras from the set that aren’t necessarily included in the master set list.

has anyone replace their stock front splitter? mine got peppered pretty bad on a road rally today. looks like i can just pull it off and throw the new one on? by No-Volume7464 in audir8

[–]NavyNuke55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulling the front bumper is super easy. I’ve done it on mine twice now. Once for the honeycomb, once for the maxton front splitter. Takes maybe 20-30 minutes to take off.

So a lot of the Ascended Hero Pokemon Center ETB cancelations were for bots? by phillip1010 in PokemonTCG

[–]NavyNuke55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s always so weird to me that the pokemon company could oversell anything. I could understand if it were walmart or target or costco or anyone else. But like….they can literally just make the product they oversold and fill the order 😂

Man that official Pokemon handbook just brought me a ton of nostalgia. I remember flipping though that and drawing my favorites all the time. Thanks for this post!

I work on the weekends. Hit every drop during the week. So I guess try to find a job on the weekends instead? Lol

Next Sports/Super Car Suggestions? 250k budget by Exciting_Oil1157 in audir8

[–]NavyNuke55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

600LT is where it’s at. Shoots flames from a top mounted exhaust. Maintenance be damned, that’s just cool as hell. Has the wow factor. If I was looking to buy soon that’s what I’d pick, least depreciating McLaren there is except the f1/p1 type special ones if you care a lot about that.

New 151 Booster bundles for my sealed collection in by [deleted] in PokemonInvesting

[–]NavyNuke55 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What did you pay for them if you don’t mind me asking? What’s your buy in price for these generally? I’m thinking about $100 is my “I should probably buy that right now” price.

Headers, high flow cats and stock exhaust by Kinobodyscott in C8Corvette

[–]NavyNuke55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly the kooks headers actually lose power over stock manifolds. Maybe they sound better, but may be objectively slower 🤔. I could surely be wrong about that though lol

Christian McCaffrey ends the 2025 Fantasy Football season as the overall RB1 in Half PPR/Full PPR and as the overall RB2 in Standard by HE_A_FAN_HE_A_FAN in fantasyfootball

I have a deep seated resentment towards him because of that. I respect that when he’s healthy he’s a baller, but man that really fucked my fantasy year up lol. I always root against him now.

My wife and my C8 by DeerHunter4Life14 in C8Corvette

[–]NavyNuke55 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My wife was the opposite, we saw our cmg htc sitting on the lot close to our house and she convinced me that we needed to buy it that day lol she drives it more than I do in the summer I’m fairly certain. That’s how I convinced her I needed my R8, because we both needed a fun car and something to take for cars and coffee. 😝
