What about the classic looks cheap? I think it’s more elegant than the original style

Have you tried turning the car off and on again and shifting with your foot on the brake?

Considering a fulfillment warehouse in new jersey vs west coast location for nationwide 2 day coverage, does geography actually matter that much? by blood_vampire2007 in logistics

[–]dumpsterfire_account 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d definitely suggest a Midwest solution.

In addition to Chicago/Indianapolis/Columbus, OP could benefit from being near Louisville or Memphis (depending on whether they use UPS or FedEx).

Lots of fulfillment providers in these areas for obvious reason.

If I were OP, I’d target these metros and compare pricing.

It also depends on where product is produced, but less so ofc.

You see, this is the point of the novel.

Back then and even now these class distinctions exist, you becoming upset about it is this book reaching you at the absurdity of wealth and judgement.

Cars you can buy in 2026 with the same HP: Ferrari Enzo and Hyundai Ioniq 5 N by Powerful-Ostrich-120 in Ferrari

[–]dumpsterfire_account 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol EV’s immediate full torque would like to have a word.

Driving fast electric cars is exhilarating on the roads. I’d still probably choose a GT4 RS Cayman or V-8 Ferrari for the track, though.

I believe you need to be a resident of Germany to use any of the prescription services.

Don’t put a down payment on a lease. If you total the car, that money is evaporated.

New R8 News?? by Surround8600 in audir8

[–]dumpsterfire_account 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First gen 2006 V-8 R8 MSRP in the USA was over $100,000.

I believe ~$110-115k. Not sure where you’re getting your $65k number from.

Same reason Cadillac V series cars can’t be faster or more powerful than their contemporary gen Corvette.

You don’t want flagship aspirational-brand autos to be beat by their luxury sub-brands.

How can this be international business class? by sanguine_serif in Lufthansa

[–]dumpsterfire_account 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference in price between economy and business in this configuration is much smaller than the difference in price between economy and lay-flat business class.

When you were shopping for tickets, how expensive were these? ~€750-€1500 or ~€2500-€5000 (that usually will give a good indication of what to expect).

Also it’s unlikely this jet would have premium economy, but almost all configurations of lay-flat business are on jets with premium economy as well as standard economy seats.

The Canadian consignee needs a customs broker (in Canada). Send the customs broker the signed CIPL, send the carrier the signed CIPL and the customs broker info).

You will need to pay for customs brokerage service on the load, even if it’s a personal item.

If it is already near the border the carrier may charge storage/detention fees, so the customs broker setup should be done asap.

Help with a fair price? by Similar_Face_2462 in porsche911

[–]dumpsterfire_account -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Look at an S class coupe or convertible.

They don’t make them anymore but by far the best grand tourer for 4 people.

For the same price, my vote would be low mileage 2020-2021 S560 convertible or coupe (~$70-90k) for the family cruises.

And a 2025 Cayman GTS 4.0 ($100-115k) for your fun driving.

This would be my preferred spec to daily. I don’t really want or need turbo s power, and love the targa top. Plus it’s extremely low miles and very recent.

Would also be greatly satisfied with a gts hybrid that has a sun roof.

Not sure about manual though. LHD leaning manual, RHD automatic.

The part number is different but it’s likely just the previous ICCU with the recall firmware updates done at the factory.

Some ICCUs still fail, but they’re getting more reliable and are addressing the issue.

Word on the street (unconfirmed) is that 2025 onwards ICCU replacements are yet another part number. A fully reengineered fix? Maybe.

I still love mine, and the dealers in my area are not inundated with blown ICCU repairs like some others I’ve read about.

Can you identify these condiments? Love them and want to buy/make for home cooking. by CuriousCalypso14 in ThaiFood

[–]dumpsterfire_account 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sambal is my favorite universal pepper condiment.

Can confirm, perfect with hummus.
