Of course this is all reflected in the outstanding resale value of the series. (Was offered a '99 with ~65K miles a couple of weeks ago for $16K.)

Yeah, our cars might be crap, falling apart and have defective design, but they're still never, faster and better designed than the old and slow cars in his sig list.

All the rain in NC is making my car dirty... I think I need to buy a new one, as this one will never be the same.

The ignition is on the LEFT side in my 911, making it an English car originally.

I don't have a 996, but I want to buy one so I can join in on the fun!!!!

Serious question: Does the window automatically roll down 1/2 inch when you open the door on a 996?

Yes, it does. It's designed that way so that the stench can escape before you have to get in.

Why can't they simplify this car?

I have had cars that only needed 3 gears, now I have to go through 6 gears. These guys don't know anything.
