i don't have much to add, but i'll keep playing, since i have another week or so of holiday

ok, but i was talking to "you guys"(?) and since i think that the fact you've had no problems with your spoiler(s) makes you "lucky".. i suggested you're lucky.

but you said this: "and that's what I responded to; the "you guys" track record."

to whom should i have addressed this assertion of mine? if not "you guys"? and it's not a "track record" ( or if so, how so? ). it's a few guys with no spoiler issues, and one that has had them ( on two separate 996t's no less ), and knows of many, many, others that have also had issues with them.

i am now officially confused as to what our main points of contention might be. beyond that i think the 996t spoiler is problematic, and well documented to be so..and you don't? ok ( ahem ). fine. i'm ok with that. over to you.

 

Your use of "you guys" was appropriate; used to identify the three of us that have posted our track records of no spoiler system problems on our 996 Turbos (track record meaning our win-loss record with the spoiler system on our Turbos; "win" = no failures, and "loss" = one or more problems with our 996 Turbo spoiler system).

BTW, is the "shift" key inop on whatever you're typing on?

 

i'm relieved to hear that.

i'm sure it isn't. my lousy typing skills and often improper or just plain lazy syntax are the result of having only had a grade school education. sorry if it bothers you. truth is, i'm just here practicin'.

but i can drive me some hell outa them porsches.

 

It doesn't bother me. I was just wondering.

 

i'm glad. enjoy your evening.

 

Thanks, I will; watching the second half of a good football game.

 

That was a good game. LOL at Dock.

This whole spoiler thing reminds me of the BMW 335 HPFP issue. Reading the boards, you would think that everyone of them would fail. 4 years and I never had a problem.

I'm sure eventually, mine will fail as all hydraulics do, but like a lot of things on these cars, they are designed to be used. Sometimes lack of use can be as problematic as overuse.

Get your cars out of the garage and get them above 75mph regularly. Why else would you own one?

 

Boost.

 

nice pic man..! i've never quite figured out how to work my feet and shift **** and the camera same time, and still observe the "basic speed law".

i want one of those, so i'm going to spit out the gum, and try again. awesome.

 

I haven't either; my wife took the picture from the passenger's seat.

 

that makes sense. still a great pic.

 

 

Thanks, I'll pass that along to my wife.

 

Thought I would try to get the pictures rolling again....I agree that it is hard to find a bad angle.
