Well, this is the fourth time in 3 years that my car has been on the back of a flatbed. Twice for the shifter linkage giving out and now twice for spilling coolant all over hell and back. I still don't know what is wrong yet. Dealer has had it for 48 hours and no word. I'm hoping its just a hose. Last time it was the oil cooler? Something like that. I think Dave has the right idea, air cooled is sounding pretting nice about now

 

Time for an Italian.

 

I agree... they are known for their reliability

 

Man that view sucks. That's something that none of us like to see. Look on the bright side, you have a M6 to keep you going.

You need Vincent's air cooled car. 700+ HP.

 

And M-cars are boring.

 

why do you think i was driving the turbo?
700HP 993? Vince, how come we never see that monster?

 

You know, at first I couldn't disagree with you more on that note. But then I realized, an M car by itself is still lackluster in some aspects, which is why they have such a HUGE aftermarket to improve upon where the OEM left off.

They're a great car because they're reliable and truely an open canvas where the sky is the limit. But once you modify them to a certain point, they're not really an ///M car. I mean once you start dropping in power and suspension mods, it's a whole different beast than it's original intent.

 

The same thing can be said about my 996tt. it is a completely different beast compared to stock a few years ago. Not the same car at all. I think boring is a little strong for the M's as I do enjoy driving mine, especially to the coast on a sunny day. That's not to say it drives like a race car, its just a fun car in general. I think its an excellent luxury sports car and it does what its supposed to do.

 

Vincent is just messing with me...
I took a shot at the Italian's reliability, and he is shooting right back about my m...

 

I was thinking of getting a 996tt, now I kind of moving toward 997S with warranty.

 

 

i'm sorry to see the car on the flatbed todd.

but, i must admit.....but, look at the bright side.....she still looks HOT up there! i bet she still got lots of looks being up on that lift! hehe!

GL with fixing her. i hope it's something minor.

 

Sucks...hopefully it's not something big...good luck...

 

Mine has spent a lot of quality time on a flatbed also... don't stress about it.

Seth.

 

Just kidding about the Mcars comment guys...

Todd as you will soon learn this is the life of a modded car. Being on the flatbed 4 times is not nearly as bad as being in the shop strip naked for 2.5yrs. Hence you have never seen my 993TT. Every since I bought the 7GT3 and now the CS I have somewhat lost my desire to mod cars. I 'd prefer to buy cars that are good out of the box.
PS that balloon white Gallardo Spider is all you man.
