Not a forum. This is from the US corporate hq news releases. Emails sent only. Signed on for whatever models come out. Free test rides, etc. But with this poor design... Not in my garage.

I'll just vicariously live thru your decision making.

Oh look! Bienenstich Kuchen!

Bullshit!

Hub, I know you will alway prefer American steel in motor vehicles but you know you love Porsche's.
I can see you in a 992 Turbo right now!
Just borrow some cash from GRN...


But "bee sting cake" is pretty accurate...

OUCH!

Not sure if this is directed at me but I am not looking at the 996.
(would consider a late model 996 turbo or at a push for the right car a 2003-2004 996 Carrera 4S).

The pics I added of the car I am still considering are of a 2005 Porsche 911 997 Carrera S...

Look what I played with yesterday.
Still not mine though.
Stuff happening in the background I won't bore you with.
It does seem that prices are lowering on these 911 models with whats happening in the world today bringing less job security / disposable income.
Something I need to keep an eye out for incase a deal comes up I can't refuse.

Unless you get the GT4 this car get you labeled as the guy that cant afford a real Porsche, and in general the Cayman is considered a girls car. My wife had one

Crude is right Hub.

The only proper Porsche is a 911.
Its why after owning two 944's years ago I finally want the real thing!

Nice that GRN came through cash wise.
Think I might give him a call as well...

You remember old professor Kruz? He told me today he got his butt whooped by a Porsche on his own road. 600something hp. It got away from him.

Like a cobra Rook!
Got the deal I wanted so the above Porsche 911 997.1 now sits in my garage!!!

Sorry Crude, not a turbo, GT3 or X51 model but best I could afford.
However the good news is the intermediate shaft bearing and rear main seal have been done when previous work was done on the gearbox.

Hub, sorry to let you down but nevertheless get ready with those Western Union transfers because I may be needing them.

Back in the Porsche game gentleman, but this time with the real thing.

Funny coincidence.
Unplanned but my BMW X5, Renault Koleos, Renault Clio, Porsche 911 and Kawasaki 14R are all black...

Thanks mate, I'm pretty excited about the car.
Went for a long drive yesterday.
Did I mention radar detectors are legal in New Zealand?
