95 C4 993

It goes both ways. I forgot to add that.

So is everyone who participated in the Turbo S wing Group buy a poser if they installed in on a non-turbo car?

My C2 NA 993 came with a factory ordered turbo front bumper, does that make me a poser and if not, what about when I install the turbo wing and badge it with a 993 badge? Is that ok as long as I don't badge it with a turbo badge?

If you have to ask . . . just joking . . . just joking

If we continue to follow this...then Porsche themselves are poseurs....the C4S has always been described as having "turbo look" body work

hey now..

Nitto actually has this very promising R-Compound called NT01 --- and I've heard it gives the Toyo RA-1 a run for the money..

..and I must say I do NOT consider the NT01 a 'poser' tire or a poster-type track DE tire... at least not based on who's car's I've seen them on at NASA and SVT events..... and other venues (other clubs) at DEs

btw: I've actually sometimes overheard people I don't know or have never seen before at a DE event calling me a 'poser' at DEs (because I have a Tip.. and there will usually be a 'jab' about, figures it's a girl too..)... but I tend NOT to hear more about my showing up with a Tip after I pass them at the track

Did Clarice drive a Ruf C4S? I can't remember.

Well, when it comes to driving a 993 properly, I'm a poseur. But at least I know it, and over time, I will correct the deficiency.

At least I got the marque and the model right....

Lately it seems to mean anyone who puts RUF badges on a non-RUF car. Personally I think it applies to me for my white wheels and wood interior parts.

Just a point of information....many dictionaries show "Poser" and "Poseur" to acceptable deffinitions of what ever it is that is being discussed.

Possibly, a real Poser can be found out when you find them using "Poseur"???

d*#@ you, slider! look what you have started, now everyones is questioning their car...ahahahahaha! j/k!

am i a poser or a poseur? hmmmm! hey i drive a porsche not a civic..so it doesn't make a poser, right?

I know's a poser when I see's one:

I work a block or two from Wall Street, and the parking lot down the block has a 996, nice enough, always parked there. On the back, above the "carrera" emlem, the owner stuck a "speedster" emblem. And it's cracked because he put it where there's a curve on the body work.
I figure he saw it in a catalog, says to himself "I drive fast, I must be a SPEEDSTER" and sticks it on his car.
So now he has a Speedster Carrera.

You know what you look like to me, with your Toll Brothers house, bleach blonde wife and German sports car? You look like a rube. A well paid, suburban middle manager of a rube.but you're not more than one mid life crisis away from a minivan. And that early corner entry you're trying so desperately to delay.What's your father, pal? Bet he was in sales. Does he talk a lot about how well liked he is? Drive a lower end Mercedes? Does he stink of the diesel?You know how quickly the riceboys found you... all those hopeless afternoons installing air filters and fart cans... while you could only dream of driving fast... driving anything nice... finally getting your Porsche in suburbia.

Heh. This is fun.
