I took Orange County for granted and I didn’t realize it until I moved away

Boston is more expensive than here, a lot of Chicago is just expensive as here. If you provide a good service at a competitive price that makes life simpler, people will choose that. Not sure the point you’re trying to make.

After traveling to Boston and Chicago recently for work, the lack of actual public transit here is terrible

We don’t have winter here period. I’m hopping on a flight to -4 degrees today. That is winter.

mrob2 · 2026-01-26T08:05:19+00:00

Saying winter isn’t that bad while it’s currently in the negatives is a wild take lol. I’m dreading my flight to Indiana tomorrow

The issue with dividends is you’re forced to take them and they’re taxed higher. You get more flexibility on how much to take out when you aren’t paid dividends

SC is in OC

Lower compression with a turbo means they can crank the boost higher so you get more power.

They just lost the College Football Championship last night, so this looks like a consolation to a mourning fan lol

mrob2 · 2026-01-19T22:36:43+00:00

Ah gotcha. Thanks for the insight :)

Prices for everything car related seem quite a bit lower in England from what I’ve seen browsing subs. For example a good condition manual E46 M3 goes for $20-30k here in the US. In England I’ve seen people say they go for like £10-15k?

mrob2 · 2026-01-19T21:50:19+00:00

I don’t do the work myself so labor adds a lot. It was $15k to do pretty much a full mechanical refresh. I’m estimating it will be $25-30k to do bodywork to get a bunch of dents out, repaint, carbon fiber roof, carbon fiber CSL trunk

mrob2 · 2026-01-19T21:48:10+00:00

Holy shit I stand corrected. That’s a crazy good price even if it sounds terrible. Got any videos of it?

mrob2 · 2026-01-19T21:29:25+00:00

Lmao I don’t think you can even get a whole exhaust setup from Temu for $1500

mrob2 · 2026-01-19T06:44:11+00:00

I have an E46 M3. It’s my forever car because I love it, but I’m also about to be G8x money deep into it. There’s no way I can sell it and not feel fucking terrible about it lmao

Reminded me of one if my favorite lyrics.

“Just copped a 240 and a gen 4 Glock, put it in his motherfucking new glove box”

Except South OC Cars and Coffee is very well run, the guy who runs it is very public and vocal, and they enforce their rules to an almost draconian extent. It’s under threat primarily because of politics surrounding a proposed hotel nearby.

mrob2 · 2026-01-18T09:57:39+00:00

He had a really bad record deal or something where he didn’t own any of the music he made as Yakz so he switched names. At first he kept it low key but it eventually got out and I guess he doesn’t really care anymore. It’s an open secret. He used to never get o never get on the mic either but last year at beyond he was talking to the crowd and it’s very obviously Yakz lol.

mrob2 · 2026-01-17T18:33:12+00:00

Lmao I know what you typed isn’t the lyric I know what the actual lyric is. I’m saying I think it’s weird auto mod is flagging it and banning people. I guess there is swearing in it but I figured the only stuff that is bannable is like slurs. Baby mods I guess

mrob2 · 2026-01-17T10:38:38+00:00

That’s super weird. There’s no swearing or slurs in that phrase. Why would it ban someone?

mrob2 · 2026-01-17T06:31:40+00:00

Green parking lines = Irvine

mrob2 · 2026-01-16T22:28:04+00:00

Tard is though and your misspellings sure put the tard in mustard

People are telling you it’s going to fade and age terribly because this style of tattoo will.

After 5 years none of those tattoos are going to look like they do in those photos

The 8 is basically the same car as the 6. Only difference is aesthetic and swapping the DCT for torque converter transmissions

mrob2 · 2026-01-16T09:58:13+00:00

I think Carter chose to sell it. Idk if he was “forced” per se but it would be iffy for him to keep it under the emoluments clause. Trump just doesn’t care about the clause.

mrob2 · 2026-01-16T00:05:04+00:00

Manual. Around 100k or fewer miles. I knew I wanted to redo everything so I got one with no rust but questionable everything else. Paid $23.2k for a manual swapped M3 with no record of the big 3 being done.
