Default Sometimes, I just sit and drink in it.

Is that bad? At least I'm not drinking alone! But if I'm going to smoke something, I get out and roll up the windows. Stare at it. Then get back in.

so lets see if i have this right.

you make yourself a drink, then you go down to the garage, and sit in your car? Then, when you smoke, you get out, stare at it while smoking, and then get back in it to sit there?

why in gods name would anyone ever do that?

This was a joke, right? people don't actually do this?

Sparklet Water and Quadcammer makin friends...6680 posts; imagine the cheer and goodwill that has been spread.

No one can say Quad doesn't have an opinion or is afraid to voice it!

Yeah, I know...I'm one to type; er ah, talk.

For202fly, I suspect the post speaks to admiring the overall prowess, beauty and stance of his 993. I get that.

wouldn't you, i dunno, just go drive it?

I don't really get the staring at it part since its not a real beautiful design (purposeful maybe) in the way a 60s ferrari would be for instance. But sitting in it without driving it really makes no sense? Unless you long for the days without DUIs or something...

Better than a '60s Ferrari, though I do love a 275 LM.

Blasphemy!!! Ban him!


In reality, its a smooth, classic, minimalistic, AND beautiful design. On top of that, its purposeful, so that makes it even more beautiful.

well, i guess when i want to enjoy the 993, i put the bottle down and drive it. When I'm drinking, the last thing I want to do is go sit in a car in my garage.

You will never convince me that any 911 design is better than a 60s ferrari, but you're welcome to your opinion.

The only time im drinking in my garage is if I'm too filthy to drink in the house. And it's usually due to wrenching, in most of these cases the last thing I want to do is look at the car anymore.

IMHO, sitting and drinking in ur car to "take it in" prob isn't very healthy behavior. I'd rather share it with real people.

In fact, Id bet money if u told a shrink that they'd have a field day.

At least the car is getting some use.
I sit in mine and listen to music. I've up graded the audio and it sound better than my home system.
