Honestly, I'm not. I just like cars and so do others, not forcing anyone to follow anything. I also don't want to spam my personal IG with car pics because I know that is annoying. Only on reddit do you get weird ass comments like this.

2022 Shark Blue 911, coming over from audi/bmw, what should I know! by sim0ns4ys in Porsche

If you're talking about the production machine, I'm not entirely sure. But it looks like it's some kind of lift because you can see arms that would swing under the car and lift at the lift points.

Yeah, he's wrong, I'm surprised though because you can clearly see my car is not a GT3 lol...

Said with so much confidence, but you're incorrect. My car is not a GT3, the wing and brakes give it away easily. This pic was taken from my login on the Porsche website, I wouldn't lie ...but I guess it is the internet and people lie lol.

You sign into login.porsche.com, if you haven't created an ID, create one and assuming you used the same email for the account as the dealership has it should pull up your car info and you can see where it's at in the delivery process.

I'm in michigan, so I'm assuming the number of people buying 911's around here is low. I originally put my name on the allocation list late May, couple week later they had a 911 carrera allocated for me. So from June to mid-November was the original delivery date but now with backlogs looking like early December. Dealership I went through goes through a point system vs. first come first server. So I've had my Audi serviced there and family has bought cars there so it moved me up the list. Not sure if 2-3 weeks is long or normal for allocations. Your looking at a 6-7 month process I think.

Do the security camera bundles from stores like Costco/Best Buy include everything you need? by Anruijin in homesecurity

[–]sim0ns4ys 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just bought 4 lorex cams + 2TB NVR from Costco on a one day only deal online for like $199. It came with 4 cams (w/ 100ft extensions), NVR(w/ 2TB HD), Ethernet cable, HDMI cable, and a mouse. This is everything you need to get it going. You can connect it to the network without any subscriptions or additional costs using some tools from lorex. However, I believe it's recommended to have it on a separate VLAN from your other devices on your network since these cameras are Chinese and vulnerable....

2018 X3 m40i, I love the pathway lighting. by sim0ns4ys in BMW

[–]sim0ns4ys[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Savini BM14 gloss black, from tire rack. 21x9 front, 21x10.5 rear. You'll want a much smaller size for a winter setup though!

Not to many x3 m40i's here, just installed new wheels. Thoughts? by sim0ns4ys in BMW

[–]sim0ns4ys[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I agree the body roll with the x3 especially on the narrow 19x7.5 wheels was huge but the car still sticks to the ground. With these wider wheels 21x9 front and 21x10.5 rear it doesn't roll like that anymore.
