No, I won't be making it to TH in November. I have two TH dates for October already in the books, one being this Monday and the next two weeks later. November I'll be at Infineon to finish up the year.

RE: Big Ol'truck....hmmmm...tow vehicle for the new ride????

 

Suppose I could use it for that, but probably pushing its load capabilities. Just something different than the usual 4 door sedan/wagon I'm accustomed to and something my wife can finally drive (i.e. auto trans): '13 Ford Raptor.

 

Anyone Know if this Bonehead is The Bonehead who used to rule the M5board from NY?

Had to have the nicest M5 then also...

 

It probably is. He is/was a pretty big poster over there.

 

Yes, I believe it was. He's from NY and he's had an M5 that was fairly modded from what he told me.

 

Now his Turbo is sold and he is sporting a white Ford GT

 

Oh damn he went domestic on us ,but not a bad way to go domestic with a Ford GT

 

Confirmed; actual photo of his new beast in its new home...



RIP: The Great Pumpkin of the West. Although its new owner I'm sure will keep her alive for a few more years

 

Yeah that's me Lasorsa, how have you been? Man talk about a blast from the past (2006-07)!

The Great Pumpkin has moved on to a great new owner. Still trying to work out some remaining issues and I'm grateful that Justin has been patient with the whole process. It'll be in you hands soon!

Daren let the car out of the bag. And slick photoshopping of my old avatar on the plate

 

^^^ LOL "Shark01" let it slip...I just confirmed his allegations with photographic documentation

Enjoy in good health!

Cheers, VID

 

Thanks Ed. Sooo looking forward to getting her on the road 100%.

 

This is exactly what I am thinking next too

It's low, wide, exclusive, manual and friggen fast

So what's the going price on one of these?

 

I was looking for about 7-8 months before I found the right one and mustered up the courage to pour this amount of $$ into a car. Prices jumped about $15-20K alone during that time.
Several factors dictate what a particular car is worth such as color combo, number of options, miles, and of course accident history. No one has an exact count, but at least 1000 of the 4038 have been totalled, and a much higher number have been in an accident of some sort requiring repairs. So, a 'virgin' car will also bring a premium.

In general, even before the usual price hikes that come in the spring and summer, a no-stories car will go now anywhere from low/mid 180's up to 220-230's for an ultra low mileage/MSO car. Numbers are even higher for low mileage Heritage editions. Keep in mind these cars brand new MSRP'd back in '05/06 in the 140's-150s. The market is at an all time high and not going down in the foreseeable future. The market is crazy. If you think you want one, get it NOW.

 

Wow, thats beautiful Ed. Post some more photos.

Im planning my first autocross next weekend with the Metro PCA club. I want to pick up an extra set of wheels and tires for autocross. Any recommendations on tires. CUP? Want to get a season out of them. Didnt see any Nitto No1 in 19".

2011 911 turbo s

 

Hey there, I dont know if it matters but I have the OEM set of Carrera Orange GT3RS wheels that were on Ed's car for sale. If you are looking for something of this nature hit me up.
