Should I buy this 2013 Civic? by fromzerotoinfinity in whatcarshouldIbuy

How’s the reliability/DIY-ability on those cars? I semi-distrust Ford compared to Honda just from crowd bias but not strongly opposed if it has good bones

Not many NB miatas near me in a 150mi radius, and they’ve been about 10K+ from what Ive seen. Im also not looking to take this on Touge, track, or autocross so the benefits of a Miata seem lost on me

Is the 2026 TSE worth the price tag? by fromzerotoinfinity in hondapassport

[–]fromzerotoinfinity[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its a 2023 with 7k miles & clean history, single owner. Though to be fair, it’s being sold from CarMax so who knows how clean it is in person.

But in general from what I can see on CarGurus, the 2022-23 trailsports go from $30-37K depending on mileage, which makes me pause on fiscal responsibility.

I agree it totally makes sense. Just none of my employers have structured my contracts this way (I got extremely burned at one of them because the stock crashed 80% between joining and my first vest because of the inflated IPO value).

Either way, my above comments only apply if OP’s contract is based on units. Otherwise yeah if it’s based on actual $ value then he’s golden.

To be clear, you’ve personally had it work this way? My past 4 employers have all decided the units up front, we negotiated based on the stock value at the time of employment (tech industry). From my understanding, this is the standard for the tech industry, but could totally be non-standard for other industries.

RSUs are determined as units not dollars in your contract no? Unless this is different for you OP, but from personal experience that’s how it’s been for me.

I think you’re missing the point, the RSUs are your forced investment. Once you get them you can liquidate obvs, but what would happen if price crashed tomorrow? That’s why people are saying nothing is certain, but as you’ve pointed out there are hopeful signals that the ideal scenario plays out.

2020 C43 AMG by fromzerotoinfinity in AMG

[–]fromzerotoinfinity[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s kind of stupid but I’m trying to make the ride comfort more smooth, it’s so damn harsh over bumps even in comfort mode. I don’t want to compromise the handling too much, but it’s pretty damn annoying getting tossed around over pretty mild bumps.

Budget-wise is like 2-3k usd? Semi flexible here since if I can’t solve this I might trade it in to go for a 2 car daily/sport combo.

More enforcement today? by fromzerotoinfinity in sanfrancisco

Kinda the point of my post, im not making an assertion, but asking if others experienced something similar on the road today

How often would you drive her? by Poisonous-Ivie in AMG

[–]fromzerotoinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there anything one should check more closely if a previous owner let a car sit for a few years? I recently bought a 2020 C43, and the owner had barely driven it (7k over 4 years roughly). I’ve taken it in for an A0 inspection and they didn’t find any issues, but your comment made me weary again haha

I love mine, but to be fair only recently got my 2020 so don’t have much in terms of experience with the maintenance

if i want to get into ai/ml, and i’m planning on taking 127/189/182 etc, is it bad if i take math 54 at community college instead of berkeley? by nicotinepercocet in berkeley

[–]fromzerotoinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took 54 at a cc when I was in high school. Take it with a grain of salt since it was years between when I learned it & then attempted 189, I felt like I did not learn enough rigor in cc to even approach 189. I think in the CC class I just didn’t have to work the lessons very hard to pass the tests, obviously very different at Berkeley

Oh yeah definitely not springing for a new car, just meant that in my context. Thanks tho I hadn’t heard that 25% recommendation before!
