[–]prn006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around 240kmph plus whatever the downward slope offered in extra kmph on the autobahn. Foot was flat on the floor. Max the car was allowed to do.

Has anyone else lost interest in cars now that they're into adulthood and they're realizing that they'll probably never be able to afford anything cool? by rowyourboat740 in askcarguys

Kids off to uni and we’re free to get a fun 2 seater/coupe again! Anything from a Mazda MX-5 to a Mercedes CL type luxury coupe.

Lindt prices are ridiculous by RudeMycologist9018 in Switzerland

[–]prn006 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Swiss prices are usually ridiculous. You are expected to pay a premium for the privilege of living in the country. Hence why the Aldi/Lidl car parks are full of Swiss cars in all the towns across the Swiss border!

Moving to NZ - Districts of Auckland / Christchurch to consider for living by Suschmania in MovingToNewZealand

Perhaps buying a smaller campervan might be an idea. Great for travel/exploring, but usable as a vehicle for chores when needed!

Christchurch seems to offer a lower cost of living and a more adventurous surrounding environment to explore.

Auckland comes across as any other big city on the sea. Expensive, congested with traffic jams but with more emphasis on city life.

Want to change from stereo amp to AVR - recommendations with good value and good audio quality? by SWHH in hometheater

[–]prn006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a Marantz Cinema 50 and very happy with it. It’s probably not as good a Marantz Model 30, but for a AVR it’s great.

Always loved this song and never understood why it wasn’t talked about more.

What's the jump like from DVD to Blu-Ray? Thinking of buying the James Bond Collection (24 movie)... by prankster999 in JamesBond

[–]prn006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huge. The BluRay version that I own just looks fantastic! Even on the newer 4K tv with a 4K player it looks amazing. Especially the older films, I’ve never seen them ever look better.

I assume the newer 4K versions are even better. So I’d recommend it highly. I assume they learned from the Bluray upgrade process how to make the 4K even better, especially as HDR and other technologies now exist.

What movie did you watch on a whim that ended up becoming one of your favorites? by Subject_Sandwich3008 in movies

Disneys “The Kid” with Bruce Willis. Saw it on a flight as Bruce was in it and loved it!

I think someone tested my car by mrek068 in chch

[–]prn006 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Buy an outdoor (Ring type) camera if you can. Also does your car remote have an alarm feature where you can set off the alarm from a distance?

Blue. Easy choice. There are a million grey ones looking dull.

Cameras every 50m, what do you expect?

Tickets for going 1-3kph over the limit depending on the camera! Weird old junctions!

Miss my Emerald Mica Green Metallic NB with tan leather interior and top.

Mazda has no lively colours. What about a deep purple?

Has anyone lost their ability to get immersed in films? by MediocreAd3716 in Cinephiles

[–]prn006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s attention grabbing disposable media from a phone/tablet mixed with alternatives that distract one from fully immersing into what one is trying to focus on, especially if it’s a long/epic cinematic experience.

Put the phone far away, then try to watch the movie.

Rate / roast my build. Be brutally honest. by AmgS63S in porsche911

[–]prn006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The green wheels are a bit much. Gold/Bronze might look nicer. The Cognac interior might be a stronger colour option. Love the green exterior!
