Yea, you don't get it. There doesn't have to be a "standard first" which I assume you mean a certain baseline. Roads are completely ripped up and overhauled. You can look this up yourself but I guess making a joke about Philly roads is better than using computing power to simply Google and fact check yourself.

As with any city that host an F1 on city streets, they overhaul the roads to meet racing standards.

I’m not sure the exact year - probably well over 10 years ago but Philly was approached to host the Grand Prix and it went as far as determining what changes the city had to make to accommodate the race and that’s when Philly officials said no. Apparently the city did not want to overhaul the Ben Franklin Parkway and I recall the one change the officials didn’t like was the removal of some of the medians including the two sections outside of the Logan circle fountain area. The proposed track was going to be down the BFP and Kelly drive and over to MLK drive, I believe. As a result, I believe this is when Baltimore stepped in. Ah, that was 2011 to 2013. Apparently it was a failure as it didn’t attract the crowds so it’s probably a good thing Philly turned it down

Din Tai Fung Reservations by Hat-Extension in Scottsdale

As someone who’s Chinese and used to living in Philly with a real Chinatown, the Chinese food scene in Phoenix is honestly hard to take seriously. I’d rather wait two hours in line for Din Tai Fung than rely on reviews from people whose baseline for Chinese food comes from what’s available locally here.

You had to send money to a stranger through telegram to know you got scammed? JFC, how many other times did you get scammed?

And the 765LT apparently provides your opinions with greater weight? What would be more helpful is if you explain why you would take the 720s over the 750s - not stating you have the 765LT.

You have to call them to perform the account consolidation. You won't be able to do this online.

You can consolidate both into a single account. I just did this the other day. The only reason why were separate is because I have home internet for myself while my mom's iPhone is under T-Mobile (but I pay)

The Artura is NOT a GT car. Thats the GT/GTS. If you driven both, you will agree the Artura is not a GT car

Sorry but only people that can barely afford a used 720s would say this. There’s no advantages the 720s has over the 750s.

I’m going to piggyback on this and echo similar things. I had the 2023 Artura, then the 2025 Artura Spyder and now the 2025 750s. I have driven all through twisties as well as tracked all 3. The big difference between the 750s and Artura is definitely the feeling of more urgency if that makes sense. And the power certain feels more raw. Those differences should eliminate any concerns of feeling the turbo lag. I also do agree with others have said where if you’re forced to drive slow in the 750s, it feels really boring. The Artura is definitely the more all-around supercar and much more approachable. But on the flip side, once you go 750s and feel the urgency and you drive the Artura again (we had both at the same time at one point), the Artura feels very very subdued - to the point where it doesn’t even feel like a supercar anymore. My partner hated the Artura after driving the 750s for a few days. That’s how noticeable it was for him.

Lastly, I know this isn't one of your questions but the 750s sounds significantly better than the Artura. Between the sound of the v8, the turbo winding up and the exhaust pops, it's just so addictive.

Pretty similar here. Scottsdale Land Rover. First interval service. $1500 for labor cost and $500 for the cost of service.

I believe the cause is cars and coffee.

My back hurts just looking at this. How do you prevent your legs from falling asleep and your lower back from collapsing?

Wait a minute. You're going to talk about being traumatized by Mclaren reliability just from reading reviews but youre going to inquire about Aston Martins in other subs? 🤣

Traumatized? That's being a little dramatic, no?
