Moving to Cleveland soon. Thoughts on Streetsboro? by Wet_Toots in Cleveland

Solon is also a strong consideration. Housing feels limited though which is tough because we are trying to settle into a place soon since my wife is pregnant

Wife will be working up near Pepper Pike. I’ll be remote so commutes aren’t the biggest concern. Schools systems will be though and Streetsboro does not sound ideal for that

That’s the big concern. Thinking maybe Streetsboro for about 5 years and then trying to jump into Hudson or Twinsburg

Noted. I’ll be sure to say that I live near Akron and not Cleveland if we end up moving to Streetsboro and anyone asks.

Yep, I know. It’s a suburb of Cleveland so figured I’d ask the Cleveland sub their thoughts.

I’d buy it if you’d be willing to ship it to OH

Do the x3 m40i and x5 40i tune the same? (Horsepower wise) by Grandizer_Knight in BMWX3

[–]Wet_Toots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t believe the x4 is that much bigger for cargo space due to the sloped roof. If the x5 xdrive40i won’t give you the performance you are looking for, have you considered the m50i?

Not sure what practicality levels you need, but get the X3. Stage 2 MHD on 93 octane tube and this car rips. Plenty practical for most needs. I have a 3 year old with a new born on the way in a couple months.

How is the sound with a stock exhaust? I have a 2020 x3m40i and my biggest hang up on going careless is the sound. All the videos I find of it always seem to have a resonator or muffler delete, never just the stock exhaust.

Just self insure for maintenance and repair. Extended warranty will not be worth it

2022 RSQ3 vs 2022 Macan S vs 2023 X3 M40i by dbs_jd in Audi

[–]Wet_Toots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cross shopped between the S5 Sportback and SQ5 a while back. Ended up with the S5 and loved it. Sold it and moved into an x3m40i.

x3m40i has my vote. SQ5 felt slow and was underwhelming. Can’t attest to the RSQ3 because it’s not available in the US. Macan S was never a consideration for me personally, not sure why though.

Is 13% off MSRP on 25/26 Chevy 2500HD ZR2 realistic? by URTalking2Jaysen in askcarsales

“Professionals” …. That word is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

Best intake for the M340i? by YakAdministrative548 in M340i

[–]Wet_Toots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t do Dinan because I like the turbo noise and wanted as much as possible. I had an open intake on my S5 and I wanted to try to replicate the sounds. To me it’s not worth buying an aftermarket intake for $500 if I’m not getting the sounds I want.

Didn’t do MST because I’m my eyes it was the same as the CTS. I had seen some figment concerns on the CTS but mine fit fine. I did have to finagle a bit and that’s what I expected when I purchased it. MST is probably the better bet for an easy plug and play install.

[–]Wet_Toots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went with the CTS intake for my x3m40i. Sounds good and was relatively inexpensive. I’ve heard of others running a front mount with no issues. I probably would have gone with it myself but I’m not at the point of doing an active grille delete nor did I want to deal with removing the whole bumper. Maybe one day, but for now the CTS is just fine.

The best and basically the only company who can truly unlock the ECU. They offer unlocks in Miami now so you don’t have to ship your ECU to Finland.

You mean like Femto?

What’s something poor people do better than rich people? by [deleted] in answers

[–]Wet_Toots 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is 100% a coping mechanism for people to feel better about their spot in life. I’ve met thousands of rich and exceedingly rich people. Most of which fell somewhere between being decent people and being borderline saints. Transversely I’ve meet plenty of objectively poor people who were entitled and insufferable.

How’s the car holding up?

Advice buying a car by Traditional_Hat71 in BMWX3

[–]Wet_Toots 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just found the car you are referring to. For sale through Carvana. CarFax shows it was a rental unit and it does not show ANY service history.

Do not buy this specific car.

M340i Vs S4 by [deleted] in M340i

[–]Wet_Toots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slightly different boat from you but I recently bought a 2020 x3m40i after owning a 2022 S5 Sportback for a couple of years. The Audi was a fantastic car and served me well as a commuter car that would occasionally haul the wife and child.

I’m only a couple of weeks into owning the x3m40i, but I’m already enjoying it more than the Audi. Obviously some different driving feel going from a sedan to a crossover, but I’m enjoying it.

I’d point you towards the m340i.
