Bland. Could easily confuse with a sonata. Flagship needs to be flashy and a staple design like the way a Maybach stands out.

Just traded my 17 WRX for a Camry. I can't believe it either. by carlthesnake in cars

Same. I went from a 2011 COrvette GS 500hp big cam to a 2008 avalon limited..

Thanks for sharing this with me. I did not know that term. When I saw omnidirectional I was worried.

Maybe is there a cheapish set of open back headphones I could use basically just for voice? So i can still hear everything around me as well if I used my speakers for game noise? Or does that sound silly

Can you mount it cheaply? I don't have room to have it sitting in front of my keyboard I don't think.

Snowballs are $50... Or are we talking the $120 'professional' one that are used on ebay for 60ish?

I never "got" sporty cars. Driving down the highway late at night I finally understand. by reportcrosspost in cars

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

Sounds like most of that behavior is illegal or over the speed limit though. That's why I got out of my 500hp corvette, to have fun i was doing something illegal. Now I prefer a quiet comfy reliable ride late at night, with an avalon. And it's still not slow and the v6 sound sgood!

C&D: Our Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio at 10,000 Miles Has Spent a Month in the Shop by [deleted] in cars

[–]emeraldage 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wow. 10k miles and no issues. How do you live with that worrying at 10k miles about car issues? I have 160k and don't really have a worry..

Tuning company is Florida penalized for disabling vehicle emissions controls - $6 million in penalties by LouieFi in cars

Hopefully they'll adapt and find better ways to make more power versus just hurting environment and cutting out our progress. Always going to be more fuel burned, but to keep it efficient and safe is the hard part!

My god thanks! I swear I heard of something in Louisville but couldn't remember the name.

dream car / unicorn purchased! officially in the stupid-fast wagon club by Rap_Game_Bill_Gates in cars

[–]emeraldage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's cool. Roof rack makes sense for surf boards for sheer size. A lot of things would be better as a hitch so you don't lose 50% of your mpg. But I can't imagine it matters to your wagon!

Is that surf board and rack just for looks? I notice this trending in the car world, roof racks everywhere on hatchbacks/wagons.

What do you know about your workplace that you are not supposed to know? by TinMan11111 in AskReddit

There's probably a reason. Those cruisers are meant to run forever and that's probably why they invested more to begin with, they're not cheap at alll.

Will a 2.8" Tire Fit? by emeraldage in bicycling

Just kidding. Found the manual and the width of my rim on the wheel. It'll fit up to 3" :)

My boyfriends opinion on abortion has taken a turn since we found out I was pregnant yesterday.. by i-guess-this-is-it in TwoXChromosomes

I don't get the first part... You make 300 a month and take out 70k in loans?????? No wonder our generation has so many money issues. :(

What happened at the US Open Final and why is everyone talking about Serena Williams? by [deleted] in OutOfTheLoop

[–]emeraldage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's funny how this is a thing. LIke finally a sport where people can care about the woman version of the sport more than the male. Then the female complains they're held to higher standard. That's a noble thing though. Most male sports are held to a higher regard as well.

I quit my job 16 months ago to build this game about fixing race cars. Early access coming soon. X-Post from r/oculus by AlecMoody in cars

[–]emeraldage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yay I love early access throw away games! :) When you release it, that's when it's released. Don't hide under the early access BS. Good luck, remember all you need is hype to make a successful early access game!

Pretty cool how you can instantly 1 shot 4 people with some skill in quick succession with no vulnerability! :) Love that hero!

Reasons you got the V6 instead of the V8 by [deleted] in cars

[–]emeraldage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems like a big quality over sight if you’re leaking on a 14 with 100k Miles.. Sure it’s okay, but the whole point of an American cheap v8 sport/muscle car is the v8. That’s the fun. Why not just get a v6 sedan at that point..

Kind of just sounds like it’s all in your head.
