1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I kinda get the sacrifice for something that pays off, but even the fastest VWs are slower than shit. There's no luxury payoff either

 

I almost always avoid used luxury anyway, all the stupid bells and whistles are just future problems.

 

Some of it can be pretty nice on the midrange models, just simple stuff like seat heaters, premium audio, and tuned suspension are my usual favs

 

Link?

 

Yeah I mean if you need an auto the zf 8 spd is not a bad gig. Certainly ahead of the 7spd in the AMG.

I do love me some e46. I am over due for an M3 based on my handle.

I had a vw. I get why they are liked but I don't think they are for me.

 

You need this M3 swapped wagon then...

 

FB link = I don't click.

Even better the E30 M3 wagon that bmw never built...

Got my tax return taken care of. Apparently HR has forked me and took wwaaaaayyyyy too much outta my paycheck. 4k back.... except it all has to go to paying down debts and truck repair.


This being responsible thing is bullshit

Probably drop some bids on thissun

 

Did my taxes last month; for the first time in 13 years I got money back.

Was a measly $93 bucks.

 

When you're a broke fuck like me, gubmint gunna toss me any bone they can



But I'm used to only getting about 400 back a year... don't know why it got changed but after my pay raise the company started taking way extra out for federal taxes. Makes sense why it felt like my paychecks weren't any larger

 

better than owing like I do

 

think ill break even with federal + state (owing and getting back, respectively)




but, i went to management and bumped all my taxes up bc this is the third year now with shite returns

 

Oof, that's shitty I've only ever had to pay one year (when I wasn't a 1099 contractor) and I hated it, was not expecting to pay anything so it was a real kick in the teeth

 

Yea the missus has extra funds pulled out each check so she gets a fatter return. I was thinking of doing that.... up until I just did my taxes lol

 

Making good money though can hurt you as well; even setting some aside and asking to get taxed extra at work.

Before HR did the bump for me, I was paying back between $8-12k each year until I got a CPA and did the change.

 

winner winner, if u dont notice it on ur current paychecks and ur comfy with how much u get id keep it. The 2nd christmas in feb/ march cant be beat


edit: just saw u didnt notice a pay raise, change it then lol

 

My ass would be in IRS jail if that was me, holy fuck that's alot to owe back
