Well that all depends on the issues. If you’re going to say the fuel filler cap is heavier than your last car, don’t bother. If it’s something that affects us all or we’re all interested in, go for it.

Also many “questions” asked can be simply answered by consulting the owners manual. But this is the snowflake infested world we live in. Cradle to grave handholding.

Agreed. And what is the deal with pictures of tyres with screws or bolts in them? It’s a puncture, get it repaired/replaced and move on.

When to change oil
Door panel wrinkles
the list goes on and on…to call this forum a “technical discussion area” is silly these days
just have to wonder how many are posers and how many really have the cars or a snowball’s chance in hell to acquire one

Posers wanting to show off but actually know very little technically. Such a shame.

You know what, for all the B1tch, Moaning, Whining (BMW) that goes on here, I'm amazed that anyone buys a Porsche. You would think they are the worst cars in the world listening to the gripes of some.
I've ordered mine because I love the brand, I love the look, I love the car, and I feel connected even though it's not been built yet. I couldn't give a rats a$$ if the clocks don't look like they used to. I really don't care how the dashboard or buttons scroll. If it took me 20 attempts to set the car up to have the car open the garage door for me, woe is poor me. If the exhaust doesn't make the right sound, I don't care. If the indicators are too clunky or the wipers don't clear fast enough, or the seat belt buckle is too sharp or the tyres make too high pitched a noise, I'm not bothered one iota.
I love the 911, and I adore this model, and I will never complain about anything in it or on it because I chose to spend my hard earned on it. Porsche pay designers handsomely to work out what is best for them and the driver; then we get to purchase it. No not everything is perfect, and yes they make improvements, but they are the experts, we are just drivers and every single one of us will do something differently, and they try to cater for all of us. Just think how tough a job that is.
So if your side windows defrosted quicker in your 991, great. If your slide along heating control in your 930 never failed, awesome. I'm happy for you. I'm also happy that I am privileged enough to own the car of my dreams and whilst it may not do 200 miles on a single gallon of fuel, I won't lose any sleep over it; it is what it is.

^^ which is exactly what I do now, skip over those "I need affirmation on my build" threads.

Ditto. Those who really want and appreciate feedback ate few and far between. At the same time, the way “opinions “ are provided as gospel truth leaves more than a little to be desired. Those threads deteriorate quickly.

I would agree that some of the posts maybe a bit pointless, and some we may not like or disagree with, which is fine. It is a forum, and anyone can talk about what they want, as people have here complained about the posts they don't like. If you don't like a post / thread don't read it, complaining about it is as bad as putting up a "stupid" post.
