They didn't really steal it.....They were poking fun at F&F










On another note, I wish I had the baller status to even consider the purchase of a 996 let alone a GT2

 

If u dream it u can achieve iit. Just aint easy. Never thought I would have a lotus. Now I'm trying to set my life to a course that will allow me to get a porsche in the next few years. Might be a lil harder with a girlfriend but we all have priorities

"Hey baby, I wanted to get you a ring but I bought a Porsche instead."
She'll understand

I thought you weren't going to tell people I was playing with your *****.

 

My girlfriend has more money in Purses than I have in Cars 71' Super Beetles aren't cheap you know. So start saving now 3k-5k would not be out of line for a nice purse for her birthday. Just a heads up.

 

Good call Mark. I figure as soon as I jump to a higher car price bracket she may want to do the same with purses btw you should briong the super beetle out monday if you're in town

 

Which Super Beetle and What's Monday?

 

Any and jody is trying to put together a lil coffee and cars at tullys she made a thread about it

Mark, not sure if you are interested, but I am doing a full body off resto on a White '65 Karmann Ghia Coupe. Original Color was white, but it got painted along the way. Been in the family since the 70's.

If I ever finish it, it might be fun to ask Jason to take some pics of the two, together?

see you around,

Trevor

 

Just realized I totally thread jacked the OP. Sorry.

To bring it back on topic... I am not sure you of your experience with Driving at the limit. But, if you are interested in a little more performance then the GT2 is unlikely to quite reach your expectations. If you want a more limited edition, enjoy the exclusivness of the car, and will keep it safe on the street, then I say go for the GT2. As others have said, you need to be a seriously skilled driver, with a great deal of safety gear, to really enjoy the higher limits of the 996 GT2.

The 997 GT2 has some of those safety features brought back into the car in a way that is less intrusive but still safe for most of us mere mortals.

If you do get the 996 GT2, good for you, you will enjoy it I am sure. It is one of the cars on my list for sure. If you are not a regular track addict and intend on pushing the Gt2 on the street or off the street, I am sure you will do the right thing and pay for some good lessons and track time.

Enjoy your car!

laters,

Oh, BTW, mad respect for you to post up here with this question, as some wouldn't even bother and just buy it. Sounds like you will make an informed decision regardless.

 

you can get a 996 for a pretty reasonable price these days. not sure if you were thinking GT3 or regular 996 or an S. but...if you take a peek out there, they are becoming more affordable.

 

Bruv you just crack me up!

 

Now I understand the meaning of your location as "inside someone hot"
