I've also been a Benz fan for a while.
I had a 1999 C230 Kompressor for about 10 years and then a 2007 E63 AMG that I sold right before getting the GTI. Different kinds of fun, lol
I have always been a VW guy. I have a link to my 1972 Super Beetle in my sig line, but here are some of it's looks over the years starting with the oldest back in 2002.
Currently it sits on Porsche Tequipment Dynos from the 1st gen Boxster and brakes from a 944 Turbo.
I use a flexispot at my office. It works really well and it goes “kussssshhh” when you lower it so that’s a bonus.

I have a 4 foot VW logo that used to be on a parts yard storefront years ago, some various air-cooled VW body/engine parts hanging around, and a Hot Wheels display case filled with only VW models. I'll have to find my pics since my garage is currently always a mess .
I also have my beer bottle...
My dad bought a Spirit brand new in '89. He wanted the Shadow with a stick, but since it was mainly for my mom and us kids he got the 4-door and 3-speed auto... :cry:
I think their new branding is fresh and much more stylish than before. They are going for edgier and sportier across the line and I think they are doing a good job of it.
I've got a modded SNES mini with a full catalog of games from ATARI, Turbographix, Genesis, Sega CD, 32X, NES, SNES, N64, GB, GBA... I tried doing it myself but I messed it up lol. I know a guy who does it. He mods Switches now too.
I have a Kenu Airframe+ mount that I've been using in various cars for about 4 years. It's great and versatile. If I had to buy a new one I'd probably go with the Pro version.
