Hi, can you tell me where the white courtesy desk is located?

I get that no one wants to be slowed down and there is too much texting while at stop lights (at least not while moving), but can we please cut people a break -correct spelling - and not honk the horn within 20 mSec after the light turns green?

Off topic. tmario, I agree with you. Of all the million cars I've owned my yellow CS is the car I kick myself for selling.

- Apparently every GT3 bought was just for the purpose of getting an RS allocation (was properly broke in, and was never rev'd over 5-6k RPM before selling - please, we aren't morons)? Or, it just doesn't excite me as much as I thought it would (w/1000 miles on it, and yet it was never over 6k RPM's)? Can we stop making dumb excuses about why your selling it and trying to get a premium because you chose to put PPF on it (there are smart people on this forum), not idiots. It amazes me the dumb reasons, but yet the pricing all seems to be very similar (a premium which nets seller $ in their pocket).

- Whats a fair ADM? Who cares... Seriously (I mean that, if your dumb enough and you cant figure this out - pay whatever it takes for the first one offered, its the only one available ever again).

- I don't like watches, cant ride a bike with one (wrist gets all cut up and bruised), so don't need one.

- Love dog's, more photos of those please. I like cats too (not embarrassed by that).

Im done now, thanks for the thread CJ

Ugh! Left lane hoggers kill me. I watch them come off the entrance ramp, jump right into the left lane (no one in right lane) and proceed to go SLOW (relative term I know) but essentially impede the flow of traffic.

New rule, if you've never driven in Europe you get no access to American freeways. Between the near universal employment of turn signals and the respect for left lane speeding it's like a fantasyland dreamscape of efficiency over there.

Humm...thread b$tches
Colored fonts
Excessive signatures
Replying to threads and not deleting the repeated pictures
Not using search (ok, that one is for ExMB)

Go Mariners (nice game today). Was at both a Mariner and A’s home games last week...
Love the dog pics.
Watch pics are ok - except for the pretentious ones with the car emblems...
Like bikes but need more motos....

If you could care less about a break peddle, you clearly are beyond help. Thank you.
But I could care less. If you didn't bring it up I wouldn't care at all.

Not so much this forum but please note. UR is the you're of your yore. Nothing is worse then that!

Can’t trust Prius drivers.
Ever.

More often than occasionally in the Delray Beach FL area, I get lucky and blast up a latte bitch in a Prius with the windows down. All my company trucks and vans have a Wake The Dead double Conductor horn master system.
at a minimum 5Gal 150 PSI.
Perks, you know.
Makes my day and makes my colleagues days.
We have “How’s my driving” stickers... hahah.
i can fill a few pages about that.
Comic relief when someone calls, I put them in hold and gather everyone to listen in.

And dogs.
Can’t trust people who don’t love dogs

Love cats but they’re ********.

If you time it right you can shift at redline right as you go by their window. And dogs are awesome.

Simply brilliant Mr Wilson. So many things I don't enjoy on today's Rennlist. I do appreciate having you and your insight.

And yes of course I love dogs but don't need them on my Porsche blogging site.
