No, must go with agent on first visit, some agents may be nice, but I think you'll be SOL.

The Chili's in Irvine is closing, no lease renewal by Irvine Co

Our detached condo had a driveway, it was a new build in 2015.

The R2 coming in 2026, wonder how the price and range will be compared to others as technology gets better over the next couple years. Could be better/cheaper EVs out or maybe not.

The used Taycan market will prob go down another 10-15% by summer/Q3 IMO when the facelift is out, hopefully stay there for another couple years, but majority of the luxury vehicle is going to get hit regardless if its EV or ICE. I hope you get that GTS.

Get a used Taycan, should scratch some of the itch and can be a daily driver...the gen1s are coming down in price a lot, saw someone get a 2023 Neptune Blue GTS Sport Turismo for 90k and was a CPO, think it was close to a 180k sticker. Or just go on Turo and get a fun car for the weekend and...

That first year model the Taycan came out had a lot of problems compared to the years after, the new 2025 Taycan update doesn't help used pricing either with its better range/power. I think those paying 175-200k+ for cars are OK, they are the ones with the deepest pockets and disposable income...

Luxury EVs are tanking, but in general all the luxury 100k+ models get hit with depreciation even ICE, only the hard to get/rare cars go up in price.

It's always crowded at Javiers, would choose another place if you want a quieter, more intimate, dinner. Can try and go to the patio in the afternoon since it should be first come first serve, sit at the patio and get some fried ice cream before dinner.

Believe they have a private room if you have enough people to book it, we've been in there multiple times for various bday parties or out of town family comes into town and want to try it, but both the patio and inside are loud and noisy. It's going to be crowded, doesn't matter if you're...

I'm not sure where you heard that there is a population decline, I know of 1 IUSD school that had a grandfather clause to finish up elementary school if you had another grade or 2 to go if you moved, they are getting rid of that since there are too many students.

They were next to a gas station, limited seating outside, normally got the ABC burger there.

That's a risk someone will need to take. Similar to getting a kid into college by "being in sports" but once the dominoes fell, it sucked for everyone involved. This would be to a lesser degree of a penalty, but I'm sure people don't advertise getting caught.

If Irvine catches you, you're kicked out of the district, if you move back to an Irvine address, you're blacklisted. How they enforce this or how true it is I don't know, but heard this from an admin who used to work in the Irvine school district so must be some truth to it It's more likely...

If they have that much cash send them to private and live in Newport/CDM, that would be me if I could afford it.
