Comparing apples to apples, the 87 Civic models had between 60 and 90 hp. No one is looking at buying used base 944 to run at the dragstrip. It’s still CP, as your first year of repairs/update could easily add 50% to the purchase price.

It kind of works if my friend’s friends girlfriend is Beyoncé, and there’s a lot of questionable hype about her baby.

This is the equivalent of a friend-of-a-friend telling me that he and his girlfriend are going to try to start getting pregnant. I get it, I know you want a kid, just let me know once you are actually pregnant (preferably 4+ months) and then let me know once I can see the actual kid when you get home from the…

I’d go a bit smaller.

Rodney’s character was Czervik, and I believe he said: “This is the worst lookin’ hat I ever saw. Ya buy a hat like that, I bet you get a free bowl of soup, eh?”

It’s already three times better without the shouty guy.

I wouldn’t call it a hard top convertible. We call them ‘Targa’ tops.

Is the Aston backed in because it wouldn’t fit the other way? Appears there’s roof/window cutout in the ceiling, but the antenna would hit if you pulled in front-first. And maybe the garage door would hit the trunk? It just looks super tight with the Benz underneath.

That’s not downtown NYC, that’s the Upper East Side. The city (and current residents) would never approve the variance there.

It looked very much like a hotel in the background —- I thought Hilton Garden Inn, but it turns out it was a Hampton Inn. Anyway, just searched ‘hotels’ on Gmap and saw which ones were right up on 294. Only took six or seven tries...about five minutes of virtual driving. I’m pretty good at finding random shit on…

He was PM’ing a password to the Kremlin and mistakenly Tweeted it out.

Then again, this is Google Street View from 2007, and it’s white. Hmmm...not sure why there would be a plain white wrap, other than someone didn’t pay the bill and the owner covered the ad on spite.

Billboards use vinyl ‘wraps’ now, so it’s basically been covered by plastic the whole time. Note the water damage at the seams and some peeling. There was likely a problem putting on the new wrap (high wind?) or they found a problem with the advertisement. A new one will likely be up soon, or it might be getting…

If I ever get a Spyder (987 or 981), it will be a third+ car and only have the top up when absolutely necessary. But I never thought about the red latch.

I know exactly what you mean. I drove a Porsche-loaned PDK, so going to first around turns wasn’t as traumatic as it would be in my 5-spd 986 (I can count on one hand the times I’ve probably downshifted to first while still moving).

Excellent choice. I’ve only driven the GTS...is the gearing the same? i.e. long, especially second, which was the only gear I ever seemed to be in.

That looks to be a light-rail/trolley. If so, they can stop pretty quickly.

I only see four. Which one am I missing?
