I'm looking for a mobile detailer /car wash in the Irvine area. Let me know who you like and how much they charge.

I like the exterior redesign. Interior pluses include new front ventilated seats, more sound deadening, added speakers, and rear control screen. Downside: no signal or shifting stalks. Here is Car Wow's drive test:

Looking forward to seeing one in person. But disappointed about the huge a$$ wiper. Is it supposed to be vertical at rest?

Watch your wallet at Irvine Mitsuwa! Be aware of your surroundings while shopping and don't leave anything unattended. https://ktla.com/video/police-seek-publics-help-identifying-thief-in-irvine/8913819/

This was discussed over 10 years ago and there is still no construction. According to @sgip , there will be no extension until The Toll Road bonds are paid off. https://www.talkirvine.com/threads/extension-of-incomplete-roads.16189/#post-328105...

Incredible detective work by IPD! All 3 homicide suspects are in custody. https://ktla.com/news/local-news/third-suspect-arrested-in-connection-with-murder-of-teen-in-irvine/

IPD made two arrests. https://ktla.com/news/local-news/2-arrested-for-deadly-shooting-in-irvine-neighborhood/

The crime rate has paralleled Irvine's rapid growth. https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/news/1-killed-after-car-to-car-shooting-in-irvine-neighborhood/ https://www.ocregister.com/2023/08/03/car-to-car-shooting-at-midday-in-irvine-leaves-man-dead/

Zovall pasted a link to BKShopr’s thread in the first post.

It's bad Feng Shui to place your jewelry store or bank near a freeway entrance.

More idiots stealing jewelry. I hope IPD catches them soon. https://ktla.com/news/local-news/video-shows-3-masked-robbers-smash-display-cases-in-irvine-jewelry-store/amp/

I remember signing a waiver at my dealership for not installing a front plate. They don't want you suing them for the cost of a ticket. Tint places use similar waivers for dark front side windows.

Where did you get a ticket? I’ve rarely seen speed traps in Irvine except on Jamboree.

Cool. Never heard of this company until you posted. Looks like 2 Whitherspoon is the HQ. TGS is a secretive quant fund except for large recent land purchases for data centers. They control more than 60 acres in Irvine--$240M / 42 acre Great Park site closed in December...

Are you the owner or ChatGPT bot?

As much as we complain about "big government," having no government is not a good alternative.

Great job IPD! https://ktla.com/news/local-news/3-suspects-arrested-in-connection-to-irvine-smash-and-grab/

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2023/07/24/upshot/ivy-league-elite-college-admissions.html I thought this article was interesting given the other thread about IUSD and getting into Ivies. Being in the 1% has its advantages: legacy admissions, sports, and private schools. Some interesting...

If you go to a prestigious private or magnate school, then the rules are probably different. Discerning colleges will understand the difference between top 5% at average school vs top 15% at elite school. But IUSD isn't a ivy feeder so your odds are longer.

I agree with IHO. I love Irvine but if your ONLY goal is to get your kid into a Ivy, going private or less competitive public school is probably the way to go. This only works if both you and your child are highly motivated. Too much money / tiger parents in Irvine. While this is great for home...
