Hate to say it, but it is just a car!! And one that can be bought pretty cheap these days. So before everyone starts flaming me, I love my 944 N/A, am actually looking for a 951 to complete the set.
IMHO

Agreed. I know most car forums think the car they have is "the end all be all" and "is untouchable" however, its just a car and the Impala they made into a Zamboni was worth almost 3 times as much.

I find it interesting and will be watching it tonight!

Pray that nothing else bad will happen tonight? Kind of like omens or signs, eh.

Actually, my listings (Dish Network) shows the program will be first aired at 5pm - should be the same for all. My PVR (like TiVo) is set to record it... so I can pause, rewind, and puke

Yeah! I'm with you brother! Some folks on this board get so protective of their "stuff". Jeez folks it's just a thing, quit treating it as though it is something so precious (like life).

If it was so precious you wouldn't modify it, since mods compromise the ultimate collector value (yeah right) of the car.

Monday at 8? Not up here, or in the US from what I can see on the web site.

On the other hand, I watched Jackie Brown on the weekend and spotted a yellow 924. It was the scene in the parking lot, just before DeNiro offs the gf. Excellent movie.

Was this Craig's idea, or AMAF's?

Just got done watching this... I have to say that the gullwing door with ball shooter was a pinnacle of the show

The paint job and wing were an extra special touch - FOR ME TO POOP ON!

Who gave them FUCHS to use??? Why not give 'em phone dials.

And what's with a "Porsche Fuel Pump = $125" HAHAHAHAHA

Not the last time I checked! Skip, did they call you for that part or what??

Ha. Fun stuff.

Anyone who gets the case of the next person who wants to do a Chevy swap I am going to slap through the computer! Talk about bastardization! Hilarious.

I got a kick out of the "Oh my, it doesnt want to start... **** we screwed up a porsche ... now who will fix it... Tell jessie to call skip and se if he knows whats wrong." I bet they edited that part out.
