A set of these for my Model S.

I am worried about range loss and the terrible roads here in Dallas going from a 19inch wheel to a 21.

I'd love to get one of these to attach to my new Alienware 15R3 (1070GTX):

These Gucci shoes. I just bought a Burberry shirt and cardholder so I am on hold with my expenses but man, they look so sexy. Shame Tom Ford does not ship to Mexico because he has some great shoes as well.

I currently only have an iMac and an iPhone, so no portable computer. I keep finding myself looking for deals for a Surface Pro 3/4 but I really shouldn't be buying one now. Especially with new ones coming out soon, according to the rumors :D

I love the C43.

I'd like any C class really. Except the CLA. I was so close to buying a CLA45 only to find I don't fit in it very well at all.

So I'm currently shopping 2 series and S3s instead.

I've shy'd away from Otterbox this year. Which cases are you getting? I used to get the Defender and Commuter.

These are from the Symmetry Series but I already have three other cases from this line. After, thinking about these two cases, I don't need neither of them. I'm good with the three cases that I already have. But I should have passed on the Symmetry Series Graphics Case in the FireFly print, it's just a little too loud of a print and there may be some peeling around the edges but The other two Otterbox cases that I do have are the Clear Crystal and Stardust. I can see why you have shy'd away from Otterbox Defender's and the Commuter cases they pretty bulky.

What's the symmetry's buttons like for responsiveness? Are they hard to press?

2017 GTI S....

I leased a Mazda 3 s Touring for 36 months beginning in March of 2015 so the lease ends in March of 2018. I want to buy a GTI that will cost about $24,500 by the time it's all said and done. Looking for my best options to get rid of the leased car.

Here are some figures: I traded in a car towards the lease valued at $7,700 bringing my payment to $135 a month. Current purchase amount from the leasing company is $16,184 I owe $1,620 on the lease. The residual on the leased car is $14,717. I thinks that's all the important info...

If I brought the leased car to the dealership with the new car, what kind of options would they give me? Let me know if I'm a complete moron and should just wait until the lease ends.

You're a complete moron. First mistake was trading in a car that was likely in perfectly good condition on a lease. You said "I have this asset I want to give you, and you let me pay you to rent a car in return". Now you want to lose even more money by trading it in on a pretty new car you like. I'm not going to go through all the numbers, but you're fighting one poor financial decision with another. Keep the leased car you spend nearly nothing on each month, and instead pay yourself the payment you'd be making on the GTI for the next 12 months. Then you'll have a nice down payment and won't end up paying for the Mazda for the rest of the time you're paying for the GTI.

I'd just keep the Mazda and save your money. Then buy with cash.
I bought my Golf that way. They are lovely cars though.
