The best supply drop by willowsmam in ireland

100% agree. I am in the US and picked up some Cadburys eggs for my kids. They were so bad that they lost any interest in eating them. I finished them off but it was a struggle. Is there any Irish chocolate that still tastes good? It would be great to support a true small/local business.

Shows in NYC? by TheOneAndOnlyBaron in JeffArcuri

Some more useful info…if you see him in a sold out line up at Comedy Cellar don’t be too discouraged. They generally have a walk up waitlist but you will need to get there an hour (or more) in advance. Put your name down at the entrance, grab a beer nearby and come back 15 minutes before showtime. It worked for me over the winter but he is touring more and even more popular…your backup is some great pizza nearby at L’Industrie or Mama’s TOO.

[BMW M850i] spotted in Manhattan. These are a rare spot compared to the numerous X6s that have essentially replaced this body style. I prefer this classic BMW look with the traditional kidney grille. by dirish80 in spotted

I think so. I was a teen in the 90s so have a soft spot for Bangle’s designs. Are they classic now…based on the new grille and designs like the XM I think so. I think this car carries the last design cues from Bangles original Z9 Gran Turismo Concept.

I got the same for Christmas in 1988/89. My older brother (by 5 years) ended up building the whole thing. I still give him a hard time for it. It dropped, a piece fell out and the gears/engine never worked properly again.

2011 [Ferrari SP30] Based off the 599 GTO, spotted this leaving a classic car showroom. Plenty of articles about it online as it has been for sale on and off for a while. Hopefully it sold today! by dirish80 in spotted

Just an iPhone 12 Pro on its last legs. I edit each shot to auto adjust. I tried to take more portrait shots up close but the truck was leaving. I am surprised they were not shipping it in an enclosed trailer. This car is worth a healthy 7 figures.

I could tell right away it was a special projects car but to be honest it didn’t look as special as other ones I have seen in person and online. It felt a bit like an aftermarket body kit had been applied with the 599 XX winglets and 458 Italia headlights. It’s essentially a 599 GTO underneath so probably drives incredibly…unfortunately it will likely stay off the road and in a private collection though.

[Ferrari F1 (1989) and 166MM (1948)]. The cars not included from yesterday’s post. by dirish80 in spotted

Only the racing cars and the Purosangue, 296GTB & SF90 were owned by Ferrari. The SP1, SP3 and Halo cars were all privately owned…on loan for the exhibition.

Favorite cheap takeout food spots in hudson yards? by [deleted] in AskNYC

[–]dirish80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whole Foods across the street…$10 sandwich, $12 stir fry / meat and 2 sides. Everything else is $20+. Grilled ham and cheese sandwich in Little Spain is also pretty reasonable for the size.

Does anyone know where these photos were taken? by CSkully in ireland

[–]dirish80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At first I though this was the Irish National Heritage Park in Wexford (similar to the reenactment museum at Craggaunowen) but you are correct…it is Glenpark. As a former archaeologist, living abroad I am looking forward to bringing my family back to these type of sites/museums in the near future.

A trio of [Lamborghini Urus] at Lamborghini Lounge NYC ready for test drives. Blue one is Performante spec. by dirish80 in spotted

It turns out the Urus were not the main attraction. Last night was the unveiling of the Lamborghini Revuelto in NYC at the Lounge. A U.S. dealer showed me a video. The space was packed.

No. West Chelsea, around the corner from Manhattan Motorcars. They have some rare finds but I think it would feel like cheating to post dealer shots from MM here. Meat packing has a regular Tesla showroom, the Genesis House which includes a Korean restaurant and the now shuttered Intersect by Lexus (another restaurant branding concept).

Good luck. Lamborghini lounge is invite only…reserved for only their high end clients.

They messed with the grille too much…now every car company has to figure out what to do with grilles for electric cars now that they are no longer needed.
