Good list so far, but here's some more...

Should I buy these parts (wheels, strut bars, seats) on eBay?
My M96 motor just died, therefore all Porsches suck.
What are the best brake pads to use (no usage specified)?
What are the best tires to use (no usage specified)?
How come I can't get a car without PSM?
As far as engine placement, is it better to get it in the rear?
Should I get PASM or not?
Should I get AWD?
Which is more manly/girly (anything)?
Help! My CEL is on, but I won't look up the codes.

Not really good additions. If you check previous threads on these items like brake pads and PSM, there aren't many responses.

How about M3 vs. 996 instead?

True, not all 10-pagers, but they are asked every other day, so maybe over a week

Funniest thing all week. I'm still laughing. Great comment, Oreganet!

Ask him why the poll on engine failures is BS.

1) Should I get the 20" or 22" inch spinners for my GT3?
2) Why didn't the GT3 come in a cab/tip version?
3) Anyone ever heard of Wheelco? They have some nice wheel deals on ebay.
4) Which all-season tires should I put on my spinners?
5) Where can I get a good deal on pinstriping?

Now that I think about it, there probably wouldn't be ANY responses.

How about, "I think that engine failure poll is statictical proof that 20% of 996 engines blow up. Anyone who disagrees is dumb."

Or from the 997 forum, "I need help deciding on a a daily driver, needs to carry 4 people and needs to be under $60K. HELP!"

Or "Thinking of selling the P-car to get a M3. What do you guys think I should do?"

Hello my name is mike and I am 17 years old, I have been saving money all my life and now I have $2000, I always wanted a Porsche and now I think is time for me to have one. I am planning to quit college so I can work full time at JC Penney and buy the car. I already found a '99 996 with very low mileage (120k miles) and it only had 9 owners.. the engine rattles a bit and it leaks oil a lot, the sales man said that is normal. My payments will be 1200 a month and I make 1400 so I calculated that I can live with 200 a month to pay for insurance+rent+food+gas+ maintenance. Also we can not forget about Santa, the tooth fairy and The Eastern bunny who come every year . by the way I live in a dorm so I have nowhere to park, I was wondering is any of you guys would store my car for free, and I will take a bus every morning to pick up the 911... Please I need your opinion... Thanks a lot
mike
