Right car, wrong girl. See what you can get for her on a trade in.

I would agree with the trade in. Doesn't sound like you would get much for that "model".

Its bouncy--- That what they make Sports Bras for!!

This is a funny thread.

I love my wife. She never drives my car (original clutch) and she is a big proponent of Porsches. Even as my business has slowed over the last couple of years, she encourages me to keep my car. No glove and all....

Life is good.

weird.
mine is way too quiet
mine has cupholders.
mine has a glovebox, an armrest compartment, and door compartments
the seats are heated, leather, and not bad in comfort.
in fact, my wife likes my 996 40th much more than my autox prepped rx8.
i guess i got the soft man's porsche.
when did porsche add or change or offer all these things? mk2?

My wife loves my 996. She likes to drive it, and she likes to take road trips in it.

I think your girlfriend must know my wife.

And to add, I made the mistake of buying a tiptronic just for her to be able to drive it.
