I sure hope for their sake that any Newbies posting in the next couple of days post pics. If not, I'm going to rip their !@#$%^&* asses off!

Tim, I was doing my daily ebay Porsche 996 search and I thought of you. I came across a gorgeous 2001 996tt with Champion wheels, 6-speed, 67,000 miles, and no stories, for a buy it now price of $44,500!!! I hope your next Porsche is even nicer that your beautiful Lapis Blue 996.

Sorry Tim, I knew that you were going to be Porscheless for a while. I was hoping the incredible price drop might cheer you up a little. I can't believe you can get a nice TT for that price.

At 2:33 in the afternoon Central Daylight Time on 6/2/08, my 996 was officially returned to the leasing company. I want to apologize to those of you who live in North Texas or Southern Oklahoma. If you thought you were hearing a fire engine siren blaring in the distance, it was only me wailing and gnashing my teeth as we drove away from the leasing company. 
Thanks goodness, I didn't actually cry (in public anyway), so that was a good thing!

I hope another performance car of your choice, BTW we all know that is a P-Car, is in the near future for you.
Best of luck to you!!!

Well I guess the Honda discussion we had stuck a little? It is a GREAT car! Built much better than the 996 with only one flaw...FWD. But I still love the one I bought for my Daughter and you will not regret buying it. Congrats for now and soon we can start the search for the next Pcar! Come on over to my place anytime you need a P Fix.

Tim,
I rented an Accord in Florida last year when I was there. I was blown away by how much better they are then when I drove my Acura Integra (same basic chassis then) in high school and college. They are very German in handling, get phenomenal mileage and are very comfortable. It will be an able vehicle until you rock the world and can next make it back into a Pcar. May the road take you where you need to go.

I hope you stay active on RL. You've always been very helpful.
FWIW, I sold my 964 and got an M3 in 2002. Was immediatley missing the Porsche experience. Then sold that car and decided to just drive the Tundra. I think I said everything you've said. 6 months later I justified a 944. 18 months later, I got the 996.

Tim... please stick around, the policing of newbies recently has been really slacked, keep the sigs on and the newbies will never ever know... your knowledge and presence here is very valuable.
