Thumbs up I Love my 996!

Nothing else to say really!


Every time I get the car and go somewhere, I don't want to go home. In fact, it's like home

Nothing like the music of the flat six (now unleashed) and a few twisties (well not quite, but a blast at simulated speeds)....

Me too. Twice today I took a drive and smiled the whole time. Had the sunroof and windows open so I could hear the melifluous sounds of my FisterD exhaust...

Meet too. Driving to work this morning: way up the tach in 2nd gear, punching through the city as all signals go green one after another in the blocks ahead of me, I just knew I was having more fun than any of the other commuters around me. TGIF!

Even after IMS failure, or in his case, a lunched engine?

You love it, the insurance company loves it, the tire dealers love it, the cops love it, the gas stations love it, the car wash soap company's love it, the wax companies love it, the kids love it, the other drivers love it. I guess you'll have to love it a lot.

I haven't driven mine for a week. It's sitting at Denver International Airport waiting for me. I should be there in about 2-1/2 hours!
