If anyone noticed, the HFS stickie title has been tweaked a bit .....

I'm making an executive decision and one I've thought a while about. I think opening up HFS to 991.1 and 991.2 Carrera's would serve Rennlisters and the stickie best. With the upcoming 992 generation, I think it would be best to use our resources wisely and serve future buyers and enthusiasts all in one spot for the 991 generation.

Some rationale ...

Reality is, there is now overlap in .1 and .2 pricing, and many new guys are cross shopping both.

We've had HFS followers who were once .1 owners move onto .2's. We've lost participation and knowledge because of it.

There are a lot of great contributors who are .2 owners who have a lot to offer, who I'd like participating more.

The .1 market continues to be tight and to keep the thread as active as possible and attract a wider audience, I think bringing on .2's makes sense.

I think it fosters a better environment for all the 991 enthusiasts to learn from and discuss with each other the pre-owned market.

There are new guys interested in these cars who visit RL daily. Many could really care less about the .1/.2 debates. Both great cars in their own way. They are more open to either and just want some good info on these cars and a great deal.


Carreras
2012.5-2016 >> 991.1
2017-2019 >> 991.2

So ....... that's my take. Some might/might not like it, but I think it's in the best interest of HFS's continued success. We're still looking for those HFS deals and what we've always done. Just casting a little wider net now. Cool??

Excellent idea! Great way to unite the 991 community.

Makes sense to me. I'm one of those who moved from a 991.1 to a 991.2

Very good logic to merge both versions.

I like the new kinder, gentler, more inclusive STG. For some reason, I think Stout is behind this....always in STG's ear, helping him to make more popular decisions. Perhaps a run for office is next. If STG starts to include Russian and North Korean cars, we should be worried.

^ Actually, I am with this guy.

But, now that I think about it, it makes sense. Most buyers can probably skip one for the other if they don't like it—and some are open to either and no longer need to bounce between threads. Brilliant move, STG...

Hurricane, always hilarious. Come back into the HFS den now. Stout actually had nothing to do with the decision and never brought it up, although he does set a good example of forum participation and etiquette. My reasoning was pretty much outlined in the initial post.

Stout >> that "guy" is Fred G. Sanford. Of course some of you guys are familiar with the Sanford and Son sitcom?
