RAM is a hardcore AA weapon. We had them on NIMITZ. They ROCK.

Sweet car, but no way somebody else's project is worth that kind of scratch.

Beautiful car, I'd love to drive it, but the cash is out of line. It's a close thing, but CP all the same.

The CT and FL thing isn’t concerning - it’s classic snowbird behavior.

As for the car - it's sweet, but the price is insane. CP all the way to the bank.

I’ve proven this so many times. I had a friend ask me for help with the carbs on his 914/6 (my 911 has exactly the same engine) - we cleaned all the jets, checked the balance, and still it ran like crap. You can’t see the distributor in these things, so I pulled the whole thing out. The rotor had completely…

Had a clunking sound from the front end of my Volvo XC-70 when doing parking lot type stuff. Read all about it and was utterly convinced it was the strut cap bearings and upper spring plates - a common failure point. Well, I went one better and ordered the complete suspension kit, all bushings, bearings, shocks, and…

It’s one of my greatest frustrations with EPA and CARB that they put these outrageous administrative barriers in place. How about a call for sanity: You can do whatever you want to your car so long as it passes a tailpipe emissions test.

That cold air intake - that isn’t going to mess up your emissions. The (properly…

Nice car at a nice price. I do have to take exception to one thing you say though... when talking 924's, the S is good, but the turbo is actually where it's at. :)

Love the car, hate the price.

18.5K!!! This dude has one crack pipe in each side of his mouth and one up his ass, all smoking at the same time. Your ‘95 FWD sedan isn’t worth that kind of cash just because it has an Italian name.

So, so, so CP.

Holy mother of wrist breaking torque steer! NP all day long - you won't find another car that offers that kind of fun, drama, and luxury, for anywhere near that price.

I’m going to join the others here and also respectfully disagree. 3K is way early under virtually all circumstances. I had an Audi 2.7 biturbo and a Jetta 2.0 TDI. Manufacture’s recommendation was every 10K miles. Both motors are well over 100K and running strong while following manufacture’s service schedule.

In my…

I drive a '69 911. It's all about the Zinc. It prevents the cams pitting - modern oils are made for different valve trains.

They seem like they’d be useless against another car, but I imagine they’re pretty effective against shopping carts, bicycles, parking bollards, and other such minor annoyances. Probably also provide early warning when parking by braile.

In reply to myself... I also worked at the Pentagon about 5 years ago. I was the action officer for a radio program that shall remain unnamed that was overbudget by $6B and 15 years late to need. It's sad how uncommon it is to see any procurement program go right.

Sometimes... although rarely, the military does get a procurement program right. I'm stationed in Groton, CT where the new Virginia class submarines are being built. They're outstanding boats that came on budget and on time. They are definitely an exception.

That’s a fantastic idea.

Is there a compelling reason that the Air Force doesn't just give its unwanted aircraft and unloved combat role to the USMC and Army? I know there is some strangeness in the Army's rules about fixed wing aircraft, but surely the Marines could put the 'Hog to good use.

The most amazing thing about this story is that it doesn't take place in Florida.

Love the car, hate the price.
