    \\ Post Your Car vol. Been a minute //

    Just a K&N cold air intake and flowmasters. I debadged and painted the stock wheels black. I just got it a couple months ago but I do plan on trying to keep it relatively stock. Last guy took pretty good care of it, everything still works on it, except the trip odometer. The nostalgia of it is...

    Niketalk, Thinking Of Just Voluntary Surrendering aka soft repo the KIA vol worst decision of my lif

    You are an example of why the upcoming subprime auto bubble is coming. Nowhere near housing, but something to be reckoned with none the less. You have had an economy that has been rebounding and people have been buying cars like crazy these past 2 years but that has come at a cost. Tier C D...

    Official Kobae XI thread

    Clearly in the minority here, but I really do like the Easters. I see everyone's point about the skull on the back/Easter relevance, but it's a solid CW none the less.

    Drive by shooting, Please help

    I grew up in the area. On the four street corners are a tire shop, arco gas station, mechanic shop and laundromat. I would assume you are alleging this took place at the laundromat? So where exactly did this take place? Let's be honest, during daylight hours there is no way this could have...

    Niketalk is this a good deal on a trade in vol 12k upside down on 15 Optima EX into a new 16 Sorento

    We rationalize our decisions for the want versus the true need sometimes. Someone in here mentioned, all you truly need is a reliable point a to point b. That being said, you have that already. Don't have enough space buy a roof rack. If you "need" to get a bigger vehicle, don't lie to your...

    Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro "White/Cement" - The Aftermath - NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING

    I hear you, but this has come full circle for me. 1999 started a weird fascination for me. These were my first Jordan's I ever bought. I ended up owning most color ways and models at some point. But I just lost the feeling, I didn't feel like chasing the shoes anymore. I told myself we would...

    Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro "White/Cement" - The Aftermath - NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING

    Can't wait to wear these. Very pleased, struck out in person. Came home, ordered online Saturday around mid day and they arrived yesterday. I am not a leather expert but being a prior owner of 1999s as well, this is as good as it will get. For the record, never say never...but this will be my...

    Don C didn't pay that much for those 4's. Don't forget that everything you see in media is scripted/product placed.

    TEEN GETS ON BUS WITH SEVERED ARM AFTER BROOKLYN SNEAKER ROBBERY VICTIM RUNS DOWN ASSAILANT IN SUV

    These are the facts: The thief robbed the man. The man ran over the thief. Strictly legally speaking, the man should have called the police. Opinion: But as mentioned in this thread and as many believe, if an attempt has been made on your life, you have every right to defend your self. The...

    Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro "White/Cement" - The Aftermath - NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING

    Agreed, buying shoes to resell is NOT an investment based on this statement. To return shoes and get money back would mean your anticipated return was not achieved. Resulting from the "investor" not doing proper due diligence. Once again entering raffles and returning shoes require time. So...

    Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro "White/Cement" - The Aftermath - NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING

    A lot of people don't include the cost of time when making a financial statement as the one mentioned. If you have to list 2 shoes let's say that takes 15 minutes. Meeting 2 people 1.25 hours. Entering raffles 30 minutes. So a little over 2 hours, for all the effort. Let's say you make $20...

    Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro "White/Cement" - The Aftermath - NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING

    I suppose I am just bitter because if the 1999 me wanted to be a fan of sneakers today I probably wouldn't be able to do it. The way the game has been lately, if your not using a bot, entering raffles or paying resellers you aren't getting anything. The $220 price tag is a double edged...

    Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro "White/Cement" - The Aftermath - NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING

    I don't know how you guys waste so much time to pick up some raffle tickets to have a "chance" to give Nike $220 + Tax. I will wake up on Saturday and go to my closest mall and by the time I get there if they are sold out, guess what I'm going to do? Not a damn thing. Don't get me wrong, I...
