Nick,

You can email me at jcullop@vpimarketing.com. Take care. By the way, my car is at Deal now. Has been for a while. The radio won't work. New ones don't either. Crazy.

Are you serious? How crazy. Mine's a silver 4.2 premium with the 6 seat config. Surely you aren't driving that same one around!?! That'd be crazy weird. Have you seen the Rinspeen C5/1 wheels on that thing? Incredible in gunmetal 22s.

Talk to Fabryce at GMG. Their roll bar I had powder coated seal grey and they have a spring loaded Sachs clutch and lightened flywheel kit and a very reasonably priced LSD. My car is at Imagine for the full GT3 chasis treatment with parts and specs from GMG.[/QUOTE]

Wow. I'll be checking into that. Let me know what you end up feeling about it all, k?

It soon came where I started seing more of my car running around or at least the A4's and got a little bored with it..To anyone else the car is a gem, but to me I am bored with it..I was going to supercharge it and do the brakes, etc..etc..But then I got to thinking what else do I like..I found the 997 and found another animal that I want to hook up..
I guess where I am going is that once you are bored, you are bored. To everyone else you might have a ferrari but a car is a car and if you drive it everyday, well you get tired of it..Compare to life and a girlfriend..If you are not getting married to it, and its been long enough--you might as well move on to bigger and better or at least new to find out what the grass is doing on the other side of the fence...You know if you really want you could go back you can

I think I always have to feel like I do now, excited about the future plans of what I am going to do to it and or what its going to be like when I am done with the car. Once that feeling is gone or not as strong I move on...

Keep drinking right!
Wizo,

Brother, you totally know how I feel. I had an '04 S4. Same EXACT story. It was my first really nice car. I couldn't believe I even had it. Then, I started being able to afford something more. So I lost my tail on the trade and went after this car. Wow. Can't believe I have a Porsche. Wow. I'm going to totally mod it. Wow. This is bad ***. But now I can go as far as to get something really crazy. But I'll lose my tail again. Will I feel free to drive it like I do this car (say, in the case of a 599 Fiorano for example). Where does it stop? I think this is one reason, as 58speedster is in the same place and has come to the same conclusion, that I'm so excited about getting more track time. It's a quantitative way to KNOW that my car is extremely awesome. You know? That sounds weird, but that's it. I love that I pull on turbos and GT3s (the latter quite hard) on straights. I love that my car handles well too (Michelin Cups and Bilstein suspension) and that I'm learning to oversteer it well. It's also about to get addictive too, because then I find more stuff that I need, like 58speedster. Clutch, chassis work, roll cage. All that's expensive. Really. And it hauls *** now. If I do all this, it's my car FOREVER. But how could I want anything else? Seriously. I bet that 58speedsters 911 will outlap any turbo or any nonSC'd GT3 or RS. Mine's right there too. I believe it. So that should be good, right?

I sure hope so.
