"Which fuse is it??" (yelling from position laying upside down in seat with head in footwell)
That's called being in the astronaut launch position.

Oh, geez, I laughed so hard at the first video about E36 guys I nearly cried, all the while going over the stuff we all say in my head!

My contributions:

It was on top of "Car and Driver's 10 best handling car list" (a quarter century ago).

"The 944 Turbo was faster than the 930 so they detuned it" (I believe I have heard that about the Cayman "S" vs 997....Hmmm.....)

What? It IS a real Porsche!!!

"hang on while I crawl in back to open the hatch for you"

This thread needs a sister thread which is "Times when 944 guys say ****!"

No the turbo was faster than the normal 911 which is why the detuned it, not the 930... it would be like having a turbo cayman and trying to sell a NA 911, the cars compete with each other

My favorite from the 944 guys, is yeah but I'd take you in the twisties......
