There are some real quotable moments in that article...

"Those 911s are for quibblers and pedants."

“A 928 is looking to pick a fight. If you were at a bar, and a 928 sat down next to you, it would be time to chug your beer and ask for the tab.”

Thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed the 928 articles.

Also Munks Motors sponsors our 928 local events, I consider Chris (owner) and George good friends and both are pashionate car nuts

In the linked article (thanks by the way) it states that an S4 in "average condition" can be had for $25K.

??

Don't we sages think this is a tad high? I mean, mine is above average and I have a *really* hard time thinking I could ask more than $18K just to get the offers rolling.

Default I like the article - end - pick a fight :)

Maybe its not me "playing with new cars" maybe its "P"- she just wants to show the new cars - that she can still stretch her legs. I like that - that's the story I'm going to tell the officer Good article bravo. Unfortunately if the price keeps going up - then, it will be hard for some to live the dream.

I agree. I think it adds to a cars appeal. Even a Toyota Corolla is a better car with a factory sunroof.

It's the restriction in head room in a 928 that I find annoying, but I do actually use mine on a fine day
