What we really need is the Monty Python bunny on a Mk1 VW rabbit...

You’re mean. ;)

I’ve made cross country road trips in two air cooled cars - both with a bit of drama, but both made it.

The first was my ‘81 Vanagon Westy (Yes, it was air cooled - 2.0L, same as the transporter) It was dangerously slow, but it made the trip. I think the Porsche 914 external oil cooler I added helped it a lot, I…

Indeed, for snap oversteer is the wages for the arch-sin of lifting.

I love that God prefers rear engine, air cooled cars! That's a gospel I can get behind!

It’s a cool car, and probably worth the money to somebody, but that somebody isn’t me. CP because that much money will go a long way towards something cooler.

That's a bit too much money... Nice car though.

996 Turbo is the most fun/$ in the world right now. I’ve driven one - it’s sublime.

Stand by for big dealer maintenance bills.

I really, really, really like the truck, but it’s my opinion that the prices are wildly inflated. $18.5K will buy a hell of a lot of awesome American off-roadiness. The Americans won’t be quite as quirky, but price of entry, price of parts, availability of upgrades, will all be much cheaper and easier.

It's cool, but…

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.
