I don't understand why you think they will shut it down, you get to swear in your threads and nothing happens. As far as I am concerned, my posts are on topic....sort of

It a useless topic unless one compares the actual contract and looks at the details of what it covers in the fine print.

What matters is when the person has the broken car with the contract and is faced with a 'yes" or a 'no".
Larry,

This post sums up your approach to posting now kin this thread You bring up vans age and then claim who cares when he responds. Classic trolling.


Really what are you trying to get across that you haven't tried at least 5 times already. You don't like the purchase. We get it and some of us don't agree.

Now you don't like the warranty...we get that too.

You see Porsche ownership thru only your eyes.

Fine with me but you get so pissed when others don't agree. It's like we challenged your manhood or something.

We are not. Were just different type of owners. With different experiences than you. Not better just different.

Apparently you don't enjoy my posts , yet choose not to ignore them ..and contine to reply with the ad hominerm (ie "classic trolling") insults. My opinion really seems to evoke that much .

I don't even think this is about the original poster's car the way you are choosing to rant.
It ought not matter what I ( a random stranger) thinks about a DME on a car or a comment on a post of buying a car sight unseen or aftermarket warranty , or even whether or not anyone recall the 993 2 year wararnty of 1995.

OK you agree with the Op . Great !!! Good for you .
It's ok to disagree . Really !!!

I just feel that this thread at this point is wasting everyones time and YOU are participating . So is North Van .
Every person does have a choice. . That includes me .
You can have the thread.

I do think that eventually a moderator (which BTW you also hurled an insult at and he almost locked the the thread ) will make the final choice on this thread . I leave it up to him.

Peace .. dude .

Yes...I did make an error with the moderator. It was late and I wrote too quickly.

And I quickly apologized. However I have made no such errors with you.

You continue to troll and rant and blame us. You never look at yourself.

And you never mentioned the key point of my post. YOU brought up the age topic and then blasted van.

Peace to you also.

How am I at fault when I stayed away for this thread for 18 hours, and you come back with a troll like comment (post 147 of this thread). Larry you made a fool of yourself, I have a number of PM's and positive reps from people regarding this thread, thanking me for speaking my mind.

Go research the price of used 997's so that you can be helpful in the future.

Even Porsche designed their PDK to factor out those types of errors.

Maybe a PDK car next time ?

I might even consider giving a postive rep this as I feel it's the best example I have read of what not to do to a car on this forum.

Me too. I got allot of those green dots too now. Not bad for a guy who was in time out not too long ago.

Anyhow...this proves is that there are all type of owners here with opinions on both sides. And that's how it should be.

PM's from your self don't count Larry

If the PDK was perfect, then why did they forget the third radiator on the first year of production, not to mention how they have just not shifted when asked to. The PDK is very nice, but it has it's share of problems, and as they get a little older, it will be interesting to see what comes of them. You should drive yours so you can be an expert on them. As for me, I am sure the next car for me will be GT3, comes with a higher redline, and I won't need to squeeze all the extra rev's to make it to the next corner, or up a hill without upsetting the balance of the car at the wrong time. I like rowing through a manual gear box, and although the dual clutch boxes are the way Porsche and other manufactures are going, doesn't discount the enjoyment one will get from shifting an old school manual transmission.

Look at our avatars Larry, yours sitting pretty and mine being used, this is how these two cars live their lives....what example can you make of this? IMO there are two kinds of Porsche owners, those that drive them, and those that pose with them.

I know which one I am
