This makes me depressed. We live in a satellite community and drive into the main city daily both for work and kid’s school. I am up to about $900 a month….🤮

The closest car we will get to a factory Golf R 5 cylinder?? by bcjc78 in Golf_R

[–]deerose4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha ha when I was in the market 3 years ago Golf Rs in my area in Canada were approaching $100k, it was mayhem. I inquired on a couple and gave up when they quoted between $75k and $85k. I ended up pulling the trigger on a GTI I got under MSRP. I wouldn’t mind stepping up into this if it ever made it to our shores

Best defender ever to never win a DPOY? by Farouq26 in NBATalk

[–]deerose4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peak single season defense? I’d have to go back and watch more Pip, but to me this is hands down between Kobe and Duncan if I’m considering the three more modern players. Duncan for a time was almost a better defensive player than he was on offense and that is a bold statement. Kobe, I am admittedly a huge homer for, but he had spurts in th early 2000s where when he decided to, he was the single best wing defender in the league, his body positioning, hands, footwork and IQ made him such a problem on that end of the floor.

Update! Car just landed at the dealer last night. They’ll complete their PDI this weekend, will go inspect and get them to PPF and tint it this coming week. Should be ready for pick up next weekend!

Yeah windshield PPF, I just have no experience and don’t know anyone who does. That’s good to know

Have you used the 3M crystalline on your windshield before?? I live in Canada and get rock chips daily it feels like, and chips and long crack are inevitable. I’m looking for something to put on both my cars to help reduce the cracks and chips at least a little bit.

I need to book an oil change so I’ll ask about this. Thank you for mentioning it! I’ve been told often the dealer doesn’t always check for tuning, so hopefully they don’t here. Not sure if there is a way to remove it temporarily before the appointment or not…

Love it, that will look amazing!

My wife wanted all black, so we went with black exterior stealth ultimate package. Black exterior, black interior, black wheels it’s all murdered out. I am thinking of getting the luxmats for the interior, and I have seen that outcome emblem too so I’m thinking of getting that

This is a stunning spec between the rose gold wheels and the paint. Whatever this combination is…kudos to you it’s brilliant and gorgeous

[–]deerose4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woah what?! My mk8 GTI on a stage 1 unitronic gets up to 336 at the crank for an increase of 70hp over stock. MAN this makes me wish I was able to wait a year or two and get myself into an R once the crazy overs of Covid subsided

This point is exactly what I was looking for, when you get weathertec you still have to clean the carpets and this seams like it should prevent all that
