You should see the polls on the Porsche boards asking new owners what brand they're switching from.

I'm waiting for the officially licensed Dexter limited edition.

Modern-day Italians aren't well-known for financial acumen. We're not exactly talking about the Medicis here.

Not sure about that. This almost looks like a traction control failure — as if the steering-wheel angle sensor was reporting bad data and the car tried to compensate by braking the rear wheel on the driver's side.

Exactly. We saw the same threads on horseandjockey.com back in the early 1900s.

Cause of death: Gömböc attack

Hopefully, whoever at SRT sent that bucket of bolts to one of the most important magazine tests of the year has been handed their walking papers.

Go drive a 981 Cayman or Boxster, then post.

Exactly. You cannot build a car designed for maximum performance in its market segment, on the street or the track, if it is equipped with a stick shift. You might as well use a carburetor while you're at it. Obsolete technology is obsolete.

How in the world can you argue with the demographics of modern air travel? How often did your parents fly anywhere? How often do you?

Great, the airlines are now re-regulated. That will be $2000.00 for your ticket to Boise, please.

Yeah, the only question is whether this car was photoshopped by the Iranians or the North Koreans. Revolting.

Nobody else thinks big in America anymore, it seems. More power to him. As a taxpayer I'd rather give $10B to Musk to try his unproven Hyperloop idea than give the State of California $70B to build a slow, clunky choo-choo train.

Not entirely the same scenario, though. With 458s, the supply is very limited, so there has to be some way to sort out who buys them and who doesn't. Raising the price is the usual way to do that.

The problem with cameras in school zones is that instead of watching out for errant kids, I stare at my speedometer.

You'll understand once you're out of high school.

As an owner of one of those $90K 981S Boxsters, I sincerely wish Porsche had come up with a new name for it. If they had, people would be saying I'd gotten a bargain, instead of saying I'd been taken to the cleaners.

Porsche (read VAG) are cowards and will do anything for a dollar.

No, not all cars are getting heavier. The Porsche 981s are lighter than the 987.2 models were.

A lot more people than the ones who consider anything by Volvo a dream car, I'd wager...
