Default What did you buy.........?

Sorry, but after owning new Porsches continuously for 43 years, I, much like my Porsche friends, are tired of hearing "what you bought your Porsche today". Please, it is enough!

Who cares? You are not interested in the many things I bought my GTS and I would not want to bore you with it. Let's stop and revert to really valuable discussions about your recommendations of things for your Porsche that would impact others. We call it kindness.

Please?

Consider that thread a blessing. It prevents people from starting all new threads every time they buy something. Just ignore it, like I ignore 90% of the threads here.

Why does this even have its own topic? Couldn't you have just posted your, frankly useless opinion in the thread you speak of?

Personally, I check that thread all the time because I like to see what others are doing and how they like it before I do something to my vehicles.

Good for you for owning Porsches for 43 years. As someone who isn't even 43 years old yet, I can say that just about everyone who reads these forums cares more about the posts in that thread than they do about how long you've had porsches and how salty you are about it.

Not sure why you find it offensive. Personally, I like to see what others are buying for their cars - if I like it, I may buy it for mine. Getting feedback on what looks nice on our cars and what might not look so nice, or issues with vendors, etc. is very valuable and impacts the community. What's wrong with that?

Ban...

I like hearing about the trinkets and one of the most participating threads discusses this very thing... this data suggests that many here like seeing and discussing this. Lots of helpful ideas and tips come from these discussions.

You talking about the thread stating why not to get a 991.2 because it's crap and sounds like a vacuum cleaner?

I stated "Ban" in jest but seriously would recommend anyone that has interest in a certain content type to create it and post it!

The hilarious thing about this is the OP doesn't want to "bore us" with things he did to his car, yet sees totally fit to "bore us" by starting a post catalogueing every Porsche he's owned. Ironic that he implies that the "What did you buy" thread is somehow "unkind" yet he started a "what I bought" thread about every car he's owned.

Lets lighten up a little. I like having a community to learn as well as talk smack. At the same time - lets try not to alienate anyone [or the OP].

Thank you . It's matte black. Yes I installed it my self. You need to trim the edges but it's really not a big deal.

Strange, but I just saw an uptick in the "What did you buy" thread . . .

It's pretty simple. If you don't like the title of the thread. Don't click on it. The world is diverse. Many of us like these other threads.


R-Rated....really again? lol. You will be so far behind me.....how could you possible hear the sound of my awesome vacuum cleaner?
