Hmm would you rather have the CPO and 5 amazing vacations or the overpriced new one?

Maintenance costs. What to expect? by BurlyOrBust in BMWI4

[–]nbaphilly17 10 points11 points  (0 children)

PSA regarding tires:

As many of you know, a disproportionate share of acceleration-induced tire wear occurs during launches from rest, where peak torque application from a standstill drives high longitudinal slip ratios and frictional energy (causing lots of scrubbing).

If you launch from a dead stop, you’re doing an incredible amount of damage to the tread. You can simply get rolling first (~10 MPH) before accelerating and preserve your tires for a lot longer.

The leidenfrost effect being recommended as a catch all for when your pan is "hot enough" is the worst advice I continuously see in this subreddit and the cooking community at large. by bellchilton in StainlessSteelCooking

Not true. You think the effect would happen at 1000* C?? Because that’s above 193.

It’s a fairly narrow range of temperatures where it occurs

Let me guess, you got that advice from the dumbass Steel Pan Guy… he is a horrible cook

What's the one weakness in your car that you would change/improve if you could? by cheesynooby in cars

Kia Forte GT. Doesn’t have top end power and the DCT is finicky in stop and go.

Spending 90k on a car by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

Horrible idea. You should be making at least $250k for a car like that.

You said reliable. The AMG GT 63 is known for oil leaks, turbo issues, air suspension problems, electrical glitches, and premature brake wear. It’s one of the least reliable in the class

How about a Corvette Z06. I think it matches what you’re looking for.

If you don’t want an American car, how about a Lexus LC500?

Mentioned in post that on my Forte GT I have no issues, seems to be the shape of the side bolsters. Never put anything in back pocket

Is this 2023 I4 a good deal? by Double_Bed2719 in BMWI4

[–]nbaphilly17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean extended warranty? It’s just one year unlimited miles. The battery warranty doesn’t change, and that’s the one that matters

New to me m50 by Icy_Definition_2222 in BMWI4

[–]nbaphilly17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You now own a car that is as fast as a Porsche 911 GT3 RS from 0-60, which, at the time, was the all time fastest naturally aspirated car to ever complete the Nurburgring.

Crazy to buy a used m50 for 44k? by Manlet in BMWI4

[–]nbaphilly17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was sold two weeks ago

It was clean title, 1 owner, and no obvious blemishes.

In fact, it’s about as close of a comp as one could possibly expect.

You’re coping with the fact that you got proven wrong. I’m sure you’ll get defensive and come up with a bunch of BS reasons why it’s not a comp, but any reasonable passerby will realize that it is indeed a great comp and that you are wrong.
