Mistresses built for speed.
Wives built for comfort.

Sounds like I should just use SPASM then. Which is the best setting? Will I do any damage if I go from speed to comfort? What happens when I press the button? Will I feel the difference instantly? Why does a little blue triangle light up on the display when I press the button? Will this affect ride stiffness? Or am I missing something else?

Is it 9-1-1 or Nine-Eleven or Nine hundred and Eleven?

Does sport chrono make the car faster? I've heard it makes the car faster. Also, is the sport shifter really stiffer? Is it unbearable in the cold? Do either of those affect the amount of miles you get on your tires? BTW, do you prefer P-Zeros, PS2's or Potenzas? Any other options I should consider before I put down a deposit (what's the right amount, btw?) on my '09 911 with the updated fascia (anyone know when that will be available????)? Which brings me to another question - if I get the C2S (or should I get the C4??? Or the C4S???), should I use it as a daily driver? What if I live within 100 miles of the snow? Will that affect the resale value? Should I just get an M3 instead? BTW, my other car is a Mini-Cooper and I have a Rolex Daytona. And where the hell has OCBen been anyway?

Yep - great thread!

Cole, why does it say "Addict" and "Member" only under certain people's names?

What is a Dension? I see that word everywhere. Do you mean Denim? And what does thingummyjig mean? Is it edible lubricant?

When should I change the oil?

Should I get a 993 or 997?

How should I jack the car up?

How much do the OEM wheels weigh?

Can I fit a child seat in the rear?

Is PSE worth it?

How much horsepower does the Sport button add?

Because I have PCCB, can I drive 30mph faster than normal, or merely 20mph faster than normal?

Why is your Carrera S superfluous compared to my base Carrera?
