My good friend is an insurance agency owner, he tells me that the largest portion of insurance is based on occupant safety since the people inside the vehicle cost more to fix than the vehicle it self. That's why my newer Mercedes costs less to insure than my Contour SVT did, even though the contour would be much…

Perfect, bring him to the USA, our Top Gear sucks. I am sure he could fix it.

I was just there and they have it in stock, it's $149 a roll. It's thick and no problem with jack stands, had my Suburban on the stands and it didn't even leave a mark.

Both of the jags will cost at least $80-100 grand to restore, it's almost always better to buy someone else's restoration, unless you can do metalwork and paint and don't care about the cost of sweat equity. And it still will not come out as nice as a marque specific restorer. I have a few Porsche's so I know a…

Last year I watched someone die lane splitting. I was driving to work, the 4 lane road with a center turn lane always backs up at a major intersection. I was about 1/4 mile back so the traffic was slow or stopped, the person in the left lane and I both stopped at a light, even though it was green, not to block the…

The panels had to have gaps, when they got very hot at speed they expanded and closed the gaps, without the space they would have buckled.

May I just mention unintended acceleration........All because we couldent tell someone that they really did hit the gas not the brake! If you drive it you should know how it works.

The MTA needs to be dissolved, they have almost no oversite, they function like a rouge government agency. They keep closed books, no one knows what their actual expenses are or what they get in revenues. They lie about reserves so they can raise fares and tolls. Talk about corruption, Govonors Christie and Como…

Well 99% of the time I am alone or have one other person with me, so it could be my daily driver. I choose not to use it every day, that is my choice but I could very easily. 6 speedonline has a topic about 997's over 100,000 miles, there are quite a few people that daily drive and use their cars for everything.

It's a rubber /plastic diamond plate sheet I purchased at Costco, it's 7' x 20' and I used 3 to cover the whole garage. They work great, spills clean up and it keeps the floor clean. In the spring I wash it off and hose out the garage.

And I do some mantainance on my own cars, Porsches are not any more difficult to work on except most things are done from underneath. I need a lift.

Porsche's are not high mantaiance, I bought my 2006 Carrera S with 22,000 miles 5 years ago, and it now has 47,000 miles. The IMS started leaking and I just fixed it and changed the clutch because I was in there. I do track it a few times a year so I have gone through some pads and discs, but otherwise it is…

Well I never trust a story about a car being problematic unless you owned it from new, since you never know what the previous owner did to it.

I had the Ford Probe GT, ordered it because you could not get the Mazda without the sunroof with the V6. One of the best cars I ever had, very good track day car for a front wheel drive. When I had it the aftermarket sold nothing for it, might be different now. If I could find one I would buy it, they have all…

I have beem there many times to watch the F1 race, we use the subway all the time and find it great, the rubber tires do make a quieter and smoother than what I am used to in NY.

Well anything is better than what passes for what they have now. The domestics seem to hire the worst salespeople. One of the main reasons I have a Porsche in the garage instead of a Corvette.

Well that would only work if the idiots sleeping in the left lane would sometimes use their rear view mirror, and move over when faster traffic appears.

I also own a W220 Mercedes S500, and this car scares the crap out of me. It's on a whole other scale of crazy. Twin turbo V12 with 800 ft Lbs of torque, what could go wrong.

I did not see paint to order as an option, called the dealer and they said that it's not avaliable on the GT4. How could that be, all the great GT colors are not avaliable, like Orange, GT green and my choice Mexico blue.

Cost less to reserve a spot for a Cayman GT4
