fix
I used to buy 2 of everything.... then I had my knee blown and fixed... I realized you know, **** breaks, things age, there is no way around it. buy it drive it hard and when you keel over, you will be smiling... those who buy and worship.... well.. all the best to them.... over - rev is over rated. it's fine. when it blows you will know. just put another engine in it. if you are on IG you will see I have pic of me pegging my CGT 4.0, nsx, 73 all at or over red line... nothing blown yet...



Too funny Mooty! Thanks for setting me straight!

I bought my RS with 8K miles on the clock 3 years ago for $185 (I knew I was overpaying at the time). I've since doubled the mileage and can get out with a significant profit but I can't get any new Porsches with a manual e-brake handle so I'm keeping her.

I'm still confused as to how to engage my ebrake on my GT4 after a week of ownership. It's counter intuitive to push a button to engage when I've been used to pulling a handle to engage for 30 years.

I do the wrong thing every time I drive my wife's Cayenne and have to set the parking brake. Silly Germans. It makes no sense. I'll stick with my 997 e-brake handle.
