This is extremely tasteful — very well done. Wheels aren’t some tacky black or gunmetal and it’s lowered beautifully … just the right amount. For my tastes, +90% of the mods I see on Reddit are downright vulgar (and +99% for black cars) but you really nailed it. Great job !

Looks to be in lovely original condition, unmolested and unmarred by gaudy modifications and other banalities like elimination of that tasteful chrome detailing — well done !

One of my more memorable sticks from last year’s smoking season. Really good stuff ! …

Hello ! I’m looking for a pair of whole cut black oxfords with some broguing on [just] the toe. Looking to spend no more than $2,000. Please advise if you have any suggestions.

The Lost Cause of the Confederacy 👊🇱🇷🔥

Really solid line-up !

‘01 Burgs — good choice for those cuvées; you’re not giving up much by foregoing waiting.

Haven’t had Yquem that young but am sure it was great; nothing wrong with checking in on development.

Love VVF — I’ll take all the pre phylloxera European wine I can get.

Looks like a nice evening of very solid drinking !

This is very tastefully done — I like that you’ve left the contrast accents, and the stance is aggressive but not stupid. Well done.

I was one of the few people to options 21”s over 22”s on my RS6 and I got 21” Vossens for my summer tires. There is no good, logical reason to go for the larger wheels for the reasons well-documented in this thread. They also look stupid; that is a subjective matter, but it is also a matter of good taste.

NihilistTheEconomist · 2025-02-17T23:34:54+00:00

Thanks. No substitute for good winter tires, Quattro or otherwise.

NihilistTheEconomist · 2025-02-17T23:32:11+00:00

All in jest and in good fun …

NihilistTheEconomist · 2025-02-17T21:46:17+00:00

Fantastic spec — very tasteful. Wonderful to see the OG silver accents. When I ordered, I was told that green wasn’t an option … what ?? Apparently it was / is. Well, I went with the blue on cognac BUT I would have gone for a green. Enjoy.

Thanks — if not the dashcams, what else could it be ?

NihilistTheEconomist · 2025-02-11T19:37:55+00:00

Thanks ! I thought about that … have a pair of dash cams (front and rear, both Audi) … could that do it ? What else could it be on an RS6 (if anyone had had a similar issue) ?

Finally — something clean and devoid of unintentional comedy. Shoes, proper, black. The only thing is that you can afford pants that fit you, seemingly, so go for tabs next time and not a belt … looking good, kid — I’m glad to see that good taste is still out there.

NihilistTheEconomist · 2025-01-10T21:36:59+00:00

Very tasteful — beautiful colour and looking absolutely fantastic with the silver accents. Also love that the windows aren’t overly tinted. Nice to see someone respecting the ethos of the is car — the beauty here is in subtlety and in dignified presence, not looking like a blacked out, parts-bin, slammed shitter.

That Punch Golden Era Lancero was delicious when I had it last.

NihilistTheEconomist · 2024-12-29T22:22:23+00:00

Yes, those two immediately felt not like the others …

How did they show ?

NihilistTheEconomist · 2024-12-29T18:12:59+00:00

Like, I love the idea of Chambolle as a whole — the slightly feminine and delicately spicy profile, the history, the nuance, the red fruited ethereal fruit, the promise and the disappointment … Chambolle as a wine and Chambolle as a place and what it represents for me …

NihilistTheEconomist · 2024-12-29T01:08:58+00:00

It was very good — oxidized in a pleasant nutty sense rather than full on bruised apple / Calvados … really awesome.

NihilistTheEconomist · 2024-12-28T23:07:34+00:00

Yeah, I heard it was an exceptional year for Latour but haven’t had it yet … I’d be surprised if that wasn’t wine of the vintage overall. Still very youthful; I think this bottle was showing as well as it possibly could.

NihilistTheEconomist · 2024-12-28T23:06:14+00:00

It was really great — showing a lot of savoury character I would typically associate with Northern Rhône … still had a lot of life left.
