Old and New, what you have decided your cars are made for is up to you. As for me I continue to have years and years of pleasure out of mine. I really have no idea why you have resorted to such childish namecalling.

Sorry for the diminutive. Not meant to offend you. I'll edit it out if you like.

I stand by the fact that these cars were not designed for drag racing, and it is not I who decided that.

 

Porsche 928 Not the fastest just the BEST!!!

OK O&N ... glad I misread your intent ... as to design goal, if I used any of my Porsches (especially the 928's) as they were designed and intended, I would be in jail permanently. So, no-one in the US can or does use the 928 as it was designed, in other words as a high-speed cruiser that should take you Interstate at 150+mph for hours at a time.

Therefore we are left with alternative uses. I use my Porsches on a daily basis, and they can and do outrun most cars out there. So do the Porsches of most of my friends. No chance I'll ever change, as long as I can still drive attentively (read .... not too old yet).

 

Those STi's had one up on me in the twisties but they couldn't out accelerate me on the straights!

 

Shane from what I had heard, they were highly modded. Of course so is Heidi

 

*sigh*

Life is cruel.

 

One STi was chipped the other, that came later in the day, wasn't.

 

I have owned several Cadillacs with the Northstar. Very good design except for the infernal oil leakage that impacts 99.9% of all Northstars in Cadillacs built prior to 2000. $1600 repair job to replace the lower engine gasket.

Incredible design flaw
