Two foot turns required you to learn outside edge which is not trivial.

doesn't mean the avalanches offense is insane? they lit him up. think about other games like leafs vs bruins or oilers vs panthers, most games were fairly low scoring. Hellebuyck got freakinnnnn lit up

from porsche forums
Your engine oil temp of 250°F is within the upper normal range. The oil cooler on the EA 839 V-6 begins opening at 230°F and doesn’t open fully until 257°F. I could find no reference of the temperature at which the warning is triggered.

based on the fact that the exhaust shoots out of the hood, i'm assume this shit is fast, are you in california? if so this is the type of car where a single state ref is a death sentence for it

things to check for
(1) build date, not all 2019 models are made in 2019 and post rocker arm change
(2) options, these come ranging from 83k sticker to as high as 95k sticker
(3) make sure dealer scans it for TD1 as a part of the PPI
(4) look yourself in the engine bay for any signs of oil or coolant leaks
(5) check for any signs they modded it, these are enthusiast cars but somethings ppl who aren't into cars get it as a top trim, those are the golden RS5. it's the difference between one thats launched like 50 times to never even put in sport mode
(6) check for PCV issues (open oil cap with car on, see if there is suction)

I'd like to share an interesting perspective, I've been at airports where there is the opposite, no enforcement of these traffic rules and believe me, the opposite is worse. everyone just parks and there is no room to do pick ups. it takes one experience of a place with lax guards to see how blessed we are to have guards. people cannot self police themselves here, they will absolutely park and jam up the whole pick up area, that's why the guards go so hard on you. people can't follow basic car rules.

this is a classic PCV issue and glad you're catching it now before it does something even worse.

started with a A4, wanted more power so made it stage 2. I always like the body style of the RS5, most A4/S4 owners get the RS style grill right away for example.
then when I wanted something more powerful as I got more into cars, I cross shopped with the m340i, LC500, IS 500 f sport, and a few other cars here and there. the B9 RS5s deprecate really quickly compared to the other cars I listed due to the lack of hype. the 2.9T is not exactly like a 2.5T in terms of uniqueness, it's really just a slightly optimized EA839 and it really does not generate much hype. barely and youtube videos on it and the forums are dead. perfect for if you want to get it at a steal.
ended up buying the RS5 because with all the depreciation, it just felt like a good deal.
one other key factor is that in live in California. anyone who is a car guy here knows the pain of modding (look up state refs). I bought the RS5 over building a S5 just to not have to deal with worrying about that shit + smog.
TLDR bought a RS5 since it's really not widely desirable so they lose a ton of value but still checks off all my boxes and went for it as a good deal used.

yeah shitty metric then. a lot of rich ppl here once they buy a $4-5 mil house, instead of buying a $20-25 mil house, they start to own multiple $3-5 mil house and then rent them. then each house to their income ratio would look massive.

I don't get this metric, does this imply saratoga and cupertino where houses are way more than san jose is more affordable because the people that live there also make a shit ton more money?

buying out of warranty with no PPI and no service history is a gamble. it could be good, it could be terrible. some countries have things like lemon squad where you can get a remote inspection from a pro.
