I never sold a Porsche. One was stolen, but never sold.

My daily driver is a 93 Z28 purchased with a lot of nice suspension modifications and a few bolt on motor mods.

It was essentially stated that I was a troll for saying something nice about a car other than a 944 on a 944 forum. You dont want me to be called a troll now do you.

Schweet, very Schweet Swinger.

Personally, i'm not someone who gives a damn if my car is faster, handles better, or stops faster than anyone elses car. I just know, it's fun to drive, it's quick enough to be fun and keep me away from getting tickets fine, and stops me quick enough to keep me safe. I bought this as the best I could afford in a sports car at the time, as a porsche enthusiast of course. I know damned well a camaro modded may handle better and be much faster than my mostly stock 944. I just think its real childish of you to keep testing everyone's patients on here, and ruining people's threads by acting like an ***.

Tom you are a fool to think that car is not a beautiful piece of art. A car like that is not meant to have the obviously superior handling of any 944. It was meant to go fast, be loud, look great, and kick *** (excuse me). If you can't appreciate a car like that, much less that era, than I feel sorry for you. You can't compare these two cars because they were meant for two totally different things.

A 93 Z28 sucks anyways.

He really does like the car. It's called s-a-r-c-a-s-m. Spell it with me now, slowly. Repeat 5 times. Then sleep on it. If your head still hurts in the morning, take two aspirin.

THANK YOU!

Be nice to Lechto, I bet he doesn't know about the 63 Ford Pickup hot rod that hibernates in my garage all winter, or the 68 Firebird Convertible in my garage (next to my gray S2) I owned since before he was a twinkle in his parents eyes, or the 300+hp mullet mobile I drive every day so this S2 doesn't get stolen.

Yep, I guess with a 68 Firebird, and a 93 Z28 I don't like American cars. Don't like NY Pizza, don't like women. Yep, if it's posted here it must be true.

By the way Lechto, if a 93 Z28 sucks, where on the food chain does your 83 NA fit in?

I know it's true cuz I saw it on TV, err I mean rennlist.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program:
Schweet, very Schweet Swinger!

As far I am concerned, american iron is just as cool as a P-car, a different animal, but just as cool. I sold a 92 Mustang LX 5.0 when I bought my first 944. The Mustang didn't handle worth a ----, had less than adequate brakes, but had a bullet proof motor, and was an absolute blast in a straight line. It was fun from time to time to smoke the tires and chirp second gear. If I did this in the 911, I'd snap a half shaft .

Judson, your dad's new toy looks friggin mean. Tom's Firebrd is sweet as well.
