Hi from Belgium

Hey all,

european here but big US fan (used to live in SoCal which I miss a lot).

I've got a 911 Carrera 3.2 from 1988 (hence G50 gearbox) since 20 years and which I'll never sell. It's now 30 years old, which is very convenient because in the entire EU the car is now considered an oldtimer, meaning it's exempt from all the regulations preventing "old but not too old" cars from driving (for example in Brussels starting from 2018 a great number of cars are not allowed to be on the road anymore).

I'm a bit tired of owning BMWs as daily drivers and I'm very seriously looking at buying a used Panamera V6 3.0 gasoline as my new daily (here in Europe there are many diesel Panamera but I'm after a gasoline engine).

While searching for info on the Panamera and their reliability, I found many information on this site (and on Rennlist as well) so I signed up and joined the community : )

See you on the forums and happy driving,

Would love to see pics of the 911! Post 'em up if you can

About the Panamera: I actually reviewed one for my channel a little while back and absolutely loved it! I drove the 4S, which is a 4.8L V8. Honestly, after that review, I'm seriously considering getting one as my next daily. But I'd get the 4S. I loved the power and the fact that its 4wd, for these Canadian winters

Ah ah, as asked here's a picture of my 911 as SUPERDIM asked (it still has its original paint after 30 years. Porsche emblem stolen before I took the pic but I did put a new one now):

At least it was a thief with taste... It happened to me twice in 20 years and somehow I got lucky : both times they stole it without scratching the car. Funnily enough the second time it happened I was 20 meters away from the car, ordering something. Parked the car, went to pick up and pay for takeaway food and... Emblem was apparently takeaway too.

Oh well, it's fixed now!
