C'mon, Cole, you gotta admit it -- the guy is funny!

(And, I have found, quite knowledgeable. Lewis may never have had a Cayenne, but when he's channeling Larry, he's the go-to-guy.)

I find the constant bashing really annoying. I have talked to several Cayenne owners that simply won't visit this site because of it. I find that unfortunate.

I'm sure some of it was funny at one point. Even the funniest joke eventually just becomes annoying.

Cole, just for the record I was not bashing. I have a 2006 CTT and I love it, I also have a 2008 997TT and love it as well. I just disagree with ya about the air cooled Porsches, they are what Porsche is all about IMO and I miss them, I owned alot of them and still prefer them over the newer cars.

Also, I loved the 964

Sorry. I was not saying you were bashing. LTC is the constant Cayenne hater. I find it unfortunate that a moderator, and non owner seems to have a hobby of putting down others for their choice of Porsche by bashing it at every turn.

It's been an interesting ride. I have gone to multiple local Porsche events and talked to other Cayenne owners. As soon as I mention "Rennlist" they reply "oh.....I stopped going there because of the moderator, I go to___________ now"


I will concede that he tends to be fairly knowledgeable about the tech items. If only it could be delivered without bashing the enthusiasts choice to have purchased a Cayenne.

Don't get me wrong. I was not bashing the early cars. I love them too. Just throwing a counter point to the technology and age argument with the 964.

Grew up with Porsches and have been constantly bothered by the crowd that will bash anything that is not a 911 variant.

The reality is that Porsche has produced more water cooled cars than air/oil cooled. Its alliance with VW has saved it more than once. (914, 924-944, Cayenne) and of course they shared parts even from day one.

Poor little kids. They won't visit because the moderator is "bashing". Waaaaah!

I'll take LTC's "bashing" over certain humorless, annoying, easily offended asscoles

Wow. Not enough intellect to say anything more than elementary school insults.

I guess the rest of the conversation was over your head so rather than participate you would just cover your shortfalls with vulgarity.

I do actually respect ltc's tech knowledge and willingness to discuss the topic at hand.

That can't be said for you.

Been in this Cayenne forum only a few weeks. As a longtime Pelicanite and Rennlister - but recent almost reluctant Cayenne convert, I find the constant non-contributory posts by a few members to be a distraction and not at all amusing. Maybe one day it was, but that day has past. More and more Cayennes will now fall to the hobbyist owner, which I am proud to consider myself. The endless and redundant axe grinding is really too much. I have already found a more fair and balanced community at ------, and I see Cole's posts there also. It would be one thing if the wining was kept in off topic, but to see it in virtually every thread is really tiresome.

I am not new to the German car world, PCA, racing or DIY activities, and getting too old for this nonsense.

I miss you calling me a "dick" & "cayenne god" Speaking of intellect & vulgarity. Really like the reference in post #81. Once an asscole, always an asscole. Your elementary school classmates must have been onto something

This is hilarious!! You really are " not smarter than a fifth grader" as long as you keep on this path.

They have never gone away in the past.
