He/she was involved in a huge crash at the Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee with the #69 Copenhagen car, which ruptured one of FRUED's undescended *********, causing her/him to become pregnant. Rejected by his/her community for being "just too dang inbred", FRUED moved to Boston and became a professor at Harvard, lecturing on sexual identity.



P.S. FRUED's "love child" moved to Florida, bought a 964 and is a frequent poster on Rennlist....
Sorry, my bad, I frequently get those two confused.....

OK I have some more fuel for the fire Read the following Porsche advertisement and tell me this isn't targeted at interior decorators:

The Ultra-Exclusive 2009 Porsche Cayman S Sport Special Edition
Fewer than 100 are coming stateside, so act quickly!

Among Porsche sportscars, many believe the Cayman S is the most desirable. A 911 may be better in the hands of a top-tier pro driver, but the skilled enthusiast will find the Cayman’s mid-engine setup more balanced and secure at the limits of control. The ultra-exclusive 2009 Porsche Cayman S Sport Special Edition may be the most desirable Porsche of them all. It’s a pity only so few are coming our way.

A new Cayman is always news. The new arrival, the Cayman S Sport Special Edition, is exciting news indeed. It develops more than 300 hp from its performance-tuned 3.4-liter flat-six engine. As juicy as that power figure is, it may well be the appearance of the car that gets the pulse racing. The latest Sport version is visually inspired by the 911 GT3 RS. RS Orange and Green are available and characteristically display the model designation along the sides in black graphics. The Special Edition is also available in Black, Guards Red, Speed Yellow and Carrera White, as well as Arctic Silver Metallic available at extra cost. Black-painted alloy wheels, exterior mirrors and air intake grilles complete the exterior look.

A black interior design package and a unique, circular instrument display (without the usual binnacle above) give the gauge cluster panache. Alcantara is used on the gearshift, the handbrake lever and the rim of the steering wheel. Leather seats and the Sports Chrono Package complete the special interior treatment. Series produced, the Cayman S Sport Specials will also feature a numbered Special Edition plaque mounted on the glovebox door.

In addition to a more powerful engine, the Cayman S Sport offers a high level of sports driving and features Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) as standard equipment. It lowers the car by just over three-eights of an inch. The 19-inch Sport Design wheels are pushed outward in the wheel arches, a nice visual touch that emphasizes the Sport Special’s aggressive look while broadening its track a bit. Bi-xenon headlights up front and a twin tailpipe setup in back complete the Special package. The Cayman S Sport carries an MSRP of $69,900.

While few will own the Cayman S Sport Special Edition, there are two other Cayman models that beckon sensuously. Come on, you know you want one! This mid-engine masterpiece of performance is even more obtainable than you may have supposed. In fact, many reviewers point to the surprising utility of the Cayman, noting that few sportscars have two trunks.

Like the Boxster on which it is based, the Cayman ($49,400 MSRP) features a mid-mounted engine, which allows for almost perfect balance. That balance combined with the hardtop's more rigid structure makes the Cayman a hot handler that some test drivers believe even rivals the Porsche 911.


Now, tell me seriously - does that ad sound like it's targeted more towards John Wayne, or Richard Simmons?

Wait, you mean like John Wayne, the best buddy of Rock Hudson? LOL

I don't give a **** what anyone thinks... I'll take a Cayman any day. Even a Sport Special

All that says is that the guys that write their marketing schtick suck. Like pretty much all other marketing. And trolls.

Edit: Forgot to mention the GayWheels.com top cars of 2008. No Porsches to be found. Guess this will have to stop now Oh darn.
