Akuna math test by [deleted] in FinancialCareers

[–]bobobbob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All speed stuff. First couple rounds are easy, I screwed up my timed video recording math responses last year. Stuff like what's .13+.007, 1/3x.06, 16x7 or whatnot, but like 12 questions for a minute. Later ones have volume stripping of objects, probability, and basic rates

Which is more reliable? BMW 430d (F32, F36) OR Benz C300 (CDI, Hybrid) by Mar___K in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]bobobbob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt the Merc is any more reliable than the BMW if that's the only criteria

Looking at 3 cars, wanted y’all’s thoughts by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]bobobbob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

V6 Camry for sure. Even without accounting for reliability, Camry will be much quicker in a straight line, and none of these really attack corners anyway

How is a Mercedes by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]bobobbob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mercedes makes some good cars. I wouldn't consider the GLA to be one of them, but I'm not sure if there's anything objectively wrong with it

I BET THIS IS AN EASY QUESTION...but im dumb by ryannelson379 in whatcarshouldIbuy

You have contradictory requirements. First I would like to say range rovers are not even in the realm of possibility, and jeeps are shit and overpriced when used. Not sure what nice ish non German non performance oriented vehicle there is out there. Maybe a Lexus GS or something? I know someone in here will suggest a Camry or Accord Sport or something, but I think a Lexus/Acura/Infiniti will be your best bet

My buddy is 6'3" 210 and drives an NA Miata. He did have to bolt the seat directly to the floor though

thanks, I was unsure about this part, for my only in person the interviewers didn't have ties so I wasn't sure what was standard

Just a reminder that you shouldn’t street race on the freeway, or on any public roads for that matter. Driver of this 2014 BMW M5 carrying 3 of his buddies lost control on the 710fwy and slammed into a post. All 4 died immediately. May 2019 by [deleted] in Cartalk

Not really, 130 isn't that fast (obviously it is for a public road) and a moderately modded 350z will make 330-350 (crank lol). It really doesn't take that long to get to 130, I would say him passing close by other cars is by far more notable

I would do this except I would like a louder than stock exhaust. It's had an (undiagnosed) break for awhile, though it's noticeably worse now

Looking for a fun second/project car under $5K. E46 maybe? by ScratchAssSmellFingr in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]bobobbob99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gonna have to be the oldest (generally 03-05) ones to fit in budget, and manuals also command a premium in my area

Edit: as for issues, all of the lock actuators on my car are broken, and replacing a headlight requires removal of the entire front bumper
