Well it is his mistress...one can hardly get past the living room, up the steps, past the kitchen...

Ed, whats up with the 993s? Regardless, I like your thinking - one of those coupes will be in my garage before I kick off, I promise you that. Are you second guessing the GT3? Feeling your enthusiasm the way we do here, I bet you would never look back on a GT3...just a hunch.

Don't you lawn mower guys need more than two quarts of oil on a change? Or is that just what you lost over the last few weeks?

I am second guessing the GT3. I'm afraid of what a money trap that could end up, either in improvements or repairs. While the performance would certainly pass Ruby's, I don't need another track car or canyon carver.

I'm really thinking a nice pristine and a bit more comfortable is what I need. The wife is signed off on it, but I'm turning out to be the one with cold feet. I'm just starting to look, I'll probably wait until the winter.

Sean, what are you slumming here for? Don't you have some 928's that need some wrenching ?

All Ruby need is the monster sixpack intake seen on that 3.5L car.

thatwould be nirvana. I'm guessing it could be done with the 3.2's manifold too. Come on Ed, she need it.

Oh, no leaks here. Who here wants to search RL for "928 leaky pan gasket" or "928 pan gasket replacement"?

You can't sell Ruby, my daughter decided years ago that you were going to give it to her.

Hey, let's stop these "selling Ruby" rumors!

I thought she had a 928 coming to her?
