    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    Though I have seen many, many of your posts, I never noticed/connected the SB thing. Also really enjoyed the botanic garden and the zoo, the Condor and I had a wonderful conversation inches apart albeit with a fence between us. Great giraffes too. Looks like you have a cool playhouse, dinner at...

    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    Further off topic I was in Santa Barbara in December Handlebar coffee is phenomenal, with Dune a nice second option Great art museum for a place that size, any museum with a Martin Johnson Heade is worth visiting in my book.

    So far the best part of AI has been the gains in our older son's Nvidia stock He bought it while in grad school after seeing their chips doe a better job crunching big data than other chips

    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    There has to be some benefit. At this point the hype is like when combinatorial chemistry came to town, promising to increase the number of solid lead candidates. Combinatorial chemistry in practice was more like it produced a lot of duds.

    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    One of the really fun things about working in Biotech is being able to work with Statisticians, a breed apart. Joke from one I used to work with. How do you tell an introverted vs an extraverted Statistician? During a conversation, the introverted one looks at their own shoes, the extraverted...

    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    I feel the guy is trying too hard to draw overly specific conclusions on the Type S, a car with little inventory/history to build a story on. For the NC1 he seems to be in a better place. My 2017 looks like it would be worth about $5k less than last year.

    Gen 2 Type S vs Lucid GT

    Plaid will walk a GT all day There is a YouTube guy with a slightly modded Plaid (rear seat delete) and the Sapphire does not really keep up with him consistently

    Gen 2 Type S vs Lucid GT

    Not a fan of these U-turn comparisons I have a GT-P with much more power (1111 per my window sticker) and my Gen 2 NSX (not a Type S) could not keep up with it Braking is a different story with big steel vs carboceramics

    When to get first oil change ?

    My service advisor says go by the car's computer for the oil and filter changes. My car is over 7 years old with about 15,000 miles, no track days. My service advisor has not recommended other fluid changes even though I have asked (multiple times). Some folks here have opted for such fluid...

    2019 power system problem and power brake problem

    Sorry about this My battery crapped out about 3 1/2 years after delivery (codes, limited modes, warning lights on the dash) and it was covered Your car is older, maybe they will offer some good will Drive in Sport+ for about the last 20 minutes of your drive to charge up the itty bitty 12V

    Bought a 64 mile NSX Type S...but some stuff is missing.

    I just Googled his name and it looks like Lee moved to Rivian 2 years ago. He shared a huge amount of intel with me over the years. Regarding the bumpers used on the Type S, he had said the company had planned to do a refresh fairly early on and spent a ton of money on redesigned the front...

    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    The point i like to focus on wrt the hybrid piece is Honda made it both seamless in operation and reliable. I enjoy Ferrarichat, the SF90 and RWD 296 have plenty of electrical problems (plus shitty paint for good measure). The RWD Artura had huge problems from the get go (plus I loved how they...

    Thanks again, just a royal experience in and out On the flipside, I hate that Musky took so many of the nice elements of the Model S interior out over time At least give folks the option to have leather, etc. if they want

    Now for the Porsche, super collectable, extra wonderful edition. Have you owned it since new and do you drive it much (I am sure a lot of folks would be jonesing to get that car)?

    Thanks for sharing the window sticker. I also like the silver calipers (red is so played out and would not coordinate with the other elements of you delightful spec). Many folks have modified/replaced the beak. Some painted it black, some covered it in faux CF wrap and some went with the CF...

    I may have been off line when you joined Congratulations and enjoy it in the best of health Can you provide some details on your spec? It looks like they did a CF roof but not the rear spoiler (unusual/nice approach)

    How much better is the type S over the NC1?

    I have had 2017 since new and it has been great. You just want to check to see the campaign work has been done (and not by shop with a negative vibe, ex. Napleton). Fuel tanks replaced, thermostat, high mount tail light, some software, maybe the start/stop button and now the fuel pump (if...
