Some good ideas.  I am at the planning-it-out stage for the spring garage project.  I am in Reno as well.  You always make me jealous when you speak 912E.

I’ve owned six of the dreaded IMS bearing Porsches, racking up many thousands of miles. I own two of them now (986, 996). I have no proof that the IMS bearing was done on either one and both are pushing up around 100k miles. They both run perfect and I change the oil much more often than recommended. I don’t plan to…

Is this car a luxury GT car pretending to be a sports car or a sports car pretending to be a luxury GT?

Go different.  97-99 2.5 Boxster.

Somebody needs calibration on beautiful.

Wait two years and buy a low mile used one for half.

I’ve owned more than a dozen Porsches over the years (currently: 997C4S and 996 Coupe) but my 924S was one of my favorites and the one I kept the longest. I used it as a daily driver for years. Just a really nice balanced car with enough performance, practicality, mileage, and fun. If I find a nice one for sale, I will…

Even Boxsters have a fairly easy to access panel to get to the engine. 991 forward... nothing.  I’m not OK with that.  I have a 997 and a 996.  Both have actual engines under the lid.  Both have easy access to lots of serviceable parts, especially when you remove the air cleaner.  I don’t want a car where I MUST go to…

German manufacturers must over-engineer everything.  BMWs have drink contraptions as well.  It would be too...well, low tech to just put the buckets in the center console like every other car.

You are right on. The ones used here in Nevada are very effective and even smooth out traffic during commute times. It’s a system that needs to expand.

Get the six cylinder back in the Boxster/ Cayman and sales will come back.  I wouldn’t even THINK of buying a four cylinder turbo Porsche and I’ve owned two Boxsters.

Electric door handles are a solution that nobody asked for.  They are nothing but trouble.  Tesla’s are trouble.  Corvette’s are trouble.  The only ones that weren’t a problem were on my Quattroporte.  They were a normal, manual, door handle that would pop open electrically when you touched the handle.  They couldn’t…

I wondering why an avowed 911 denier is going to Spain to drive 911's?

C4S on a track day. Porsche always gets it right. Fiat 500 Abarth. You just can’t stop smiling. 535xi on a winter cross country trip. Has to be the best overall sedan for comfort and sport. Focus RS. Manic but I needed a chiropractor after two days. Jeep Renegade. Total POS.

Our ‘07 was an awesome car and more dependable than our BMW. Control layout was worked out by their part-time ergonomics guy, Mario, in twenty minutes on a Tuesday afternoon.

False

It was calm because he was only shifting at 5500 to 6000 rpm.  Really taking it easy.

Realism is the last thing you would accuse GT Sport of. Full of fantasy tracks and fantasy cars. “Boost” and other tricks. Stunning graphics, yes. A real racing sim, not by a long stretch.

OK. What are the best car names wasted on pathetic cars?

They wore no seat belts or helmets on any of the clips. Stupid.
