I am, the 951 has a leak in the rear main engine seal. Oil drip into the cross pipe. I have the car in pieces at the moment. Started to replace the seal and it has turn into a "you know, since this is out I bet I could..." So, new larger turbo, exhaust, A-arms... the list goes on... I am seriously considering taking the engine out to clean it well and replace rod bearings, like I said the list goes on and on...

One of the things that I have always loved about the Porsches I have owned is that is pleases all senses, visual, tactile, smell(this topic),auditory, well...I am not too sure about the taste of a Porsche yet though. Very few cars have enough personality to please in so many ways. Porsches are truely one of a kind. <img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" />
