Unfortunately, even using FAL on the GT3, I have rubbed a bit on the speed bumps in the parking lot at my daughters' school. To avoid the chance of any significant damage, I have decided to purchase a carpool vehicle (see link below; no affiliation). Now, as my wife will certainly point out, there is no back seat in this car either, and we have two daughters, so I will have to make multiple trips each day. But, in the long run, think of the miles I will keep off of the GT3. I need additional, seemingly-logical, justifications to share with my wife....... (sarcastic plea for $ contributions removed)

It's not like your car poor.
Your asking for $ contributions.
Give me a break

Pretty sure he's just joking.

Ha, yes just joking though that car/idea is super cool in my opinion. I'd love to see a mock-up of a 991 generation safari car. I recall seeing a distressed-Rothmans wrap on a GT3, would be cool to see it designed with lift/tires/hood lights/etc but I have no photoshop skills to make it happen.

Maybe something like this.

I wish porsche made offroad version of 911, or at least I want to know if I can increase ride height of incoming GT3. Not that I'm going to offroad it but I want to drive in NYC worry-free. Too many potholes in that damn city.

You'll be fine if you have the FAL and use some common sense. No bad incidents yet... knock on wood. And I'm driving nearly daily.

Question. Do you street park? or Valet?
When I used monthly valet parking in UES, one of the parking attendant offered me to take a seat in another customer's F12. I declined but wondered if he'd pull that kind of **** on other people's car, he'd prolly offer that to other people on my car.

I pay a premium to park my own car in a reserved spot. This may be out of the question obviously if you have a stacker lot with elevators in your building.
No way on street parking and yikes on valet. I guess valet lesser of two evils

Ascend

I wish I had a stacker lot. No I'm out of NYC now thank god.

I meant when you go out with your date for a dinner in GT3, say to LES, Tribeca and etc, where do you park your car?

Another great thing about living in Mississippi-- when I take my date (wife) out for a dinner, we go to Sonic and I not only get to park my own car but we get to eat inside it.
You city-folk are very trusting to allow a valet/stranger to drive your cars. I have no problems swapping cars with trusted friends but just tossing the keys to a stranger would be hard for me.

Ascend

We are not trusting. We got no choice but street park or valet.

Me to and like a good southerner I have a gun in every car. Certainly am not handing my keys to anyone and allowing them to access that.

^Us Midwesterners carry those too
