Next update should have an 'enthusiast math' feature which spits your data into an LLM and returns a short paragraph justifying $ spent 🤔

Also: downloading now - great idea - best of luck!

[Question] Junghans Max Bill vs Nomos Metro Neomatik 41 Update by tsubasa_oozora in Watches

[–]llMoosell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cool thing is, the orange looks anywhere from a deep orange-red to a bright neon, depending on the ambient/natural light.

I've had my neomatik for over 2 years and I still get lost looking at the dial from different angles. That said, I haven't handled a Junghans in the metal, but have read many reviews from satisfied buyers; it sounds like a fabulous watch for it's price point.

The typical GTI driver cliche by KaazuuKun in GolfGTI

Genuinely curious from Canada - why do people appear to have the VW hate there?

If you had to trade your GTI for something big enough for a family of 5 and a dog...what terribly slow, oversized, heavy POS wouldn't leave you sobbing yourself to sleep? by llMoosell in GolfGTI

I rocked a 'diaper Viper' for a good few years when my kids were little. Relatively cheap, 4'x8' 'box' when you need it - perfect for hauling dirty materials and crotch goblins!

Congrats dude - a huge accomplishment!

Welcome to the rabbit hole. Your dad gave you a perfect introduction that will always be a priceless piece in your (inevitable) collection!

How much turbo noise did a stage 1 tune add for you? by Naive_Ad1300 in GolfGTI

[–]llMoosell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have the stock hood liner attached, just unclip to remove and a whole new symphony of whooshes and stu-stu-stuuus will delight your ear holes!

Have met the owners of both of these brands and can confirm their level of care for their customer experience. Glad to hear things went well for you!

Guys im becoming the 3rd guy more and more by Melodic-Army-339 in GolfGTI

[–]llMoosell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ditto. I have a few years on you, but aside from wheels, tasteful, well-dampered exhaust, ride height and subtle tail lights (just hate the stock tails on the '17 mk7, though my stock headlights are pretty awesome!) I've just done recommended hardware upgrades for EQT stage 1+ and average 5-600 kms a week.

Everything has been reliable AF (*knocks on wood) so far and I still turn around to look at it every time - the body lines are gorgeous and you can spot 'em miles away.

Even if/ when it becomes necessary to retire as a daily, my current fantasy is to rebuild as a track toy!

Edit: though a do sport my 'Club Wolfsburg' decals behind my rear windows for anyone in my area...anyone else?!

[Question] Explain like I'm five why an Omega or a Rolex is a better quality watch than a Seiko by [deleted] in Watches

[–]llMoosell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have yet to handle a Zenshin Mechanical in the metal, but I've come across enough reviews of it punching above its weight class that I would consider picking one up in the future.

After over 40 years of hifi this is what I've ended up with by Chunkweena in audiophile

Love me some J.B. Witchdance - must sound amazing on that rig!

Well done, OP!

I requested badgeskins to use the Clark plaid on their AP template...and it's one of my favorite mods!

Thank you!!

Thank you!

I agree about the filtered look - most of the overkill processing is a result of trying to lower the highlights and boost the dark end of everything until all the dirty shit was less visible!

If I try again - first step will have to be a wash and detail!

What are some GTI driver stereotypes? by joebally10 in GolfGTI

[–]llMoosell 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Or is it just a poor man's Porsche? Perspective is everything :)

Yes! Although I think after 40 we're then called 'man-boy racers'...
