Default Sold the 996

Sold the 996. Been driving a lot more for work, so needed something more economical. Line for placing a deposit on the Tesla M 3 was CRAZY, but still have to wait a year for delivery.

Picked up this ride to use in the interim:

Sweet. Heard they cruise smooth in the left lane. Glad you finally wished up and dumped that POS money pit.

Model 3 seems like a great car...but you won't see yours until early 2018.

996 to a Prius and then some electric car ??? That's like waking up one morning and deciding you need a sex change.

I cant tell if this thread is a late April Fools joke. If it is, pretty funny. If not....

Pretty sure jokes are against the TOS.

Also, might get a tattoo like Hurdi's in remembrance.

Working on a new design. What do you think of my prototype?
[notice how I sneaked "POC" into it? Clever, eh?]

Don't worry, Mike's already come over to the Boxster light side of town - dozens of posts already in the 986 Forum since he bought his Boxste'. He knows where the action is, no dullard, idiotic Q&A's there...
