Dead P!Gs don't scream. It was as silent as a mouse.

I'm sure they are just now getting back to being able to sit down without too much discomfort ... it's been about 7-8 years since they really put their foot down regarding "!"

I doubt they want to relive that again.
Thank you, Larry. This will be my piece de resistance!

Thirty seconds and counting.
Rennlisters report that it feels good.
T-25 seconds. Twenty seconds and counting.
T-15 seconds, guidance is internal. 12, 11, 10, 9 ... ignition sequence start ... 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 ...
All engines running. Liftoff! We have a liftoff ..., liftoff on the P!g Pen.
Tower clear.

Pops,

If you substitute "PCNA CPO" for "AppleCare" ....

"If you think we are going to buy back this Cayenne just because of a "!" Beep, Check Trailer Light, you Sir, are out of your mind" ...

While it could be successfully argued that Larry was likely out of his mind, the one thing you really didn't want to do was give him a challenge.

Seems like only yesterday....

Official Score:
Larry: 1
PCNA Legal: 0

Post #23 has some fond memories...

https://rennlist.com/forums/porsche-...s-larry-1.html

There is also the story about the "wife of a Porsche executive trapped in the car with the audio system stuck at "11" and the time the Cayenne Hybrid had an "uncontained thermal event" ... the "now would be a good time for S'Mores event"

PCNA destroyed Larry's childhood. A lifelong obsession with Porsches (offering to wash them at the dealership as a kid, just to be around them) ending up being ruined by the Cayenne experiment. You can't put a price on ruining someone's dreams.

The only thing left behind is his widow (quite the cougar IMHO) and his Bugatti Veyron, both of which I get to enjoy now that he's "gone".

Apart from that, he was a quiet man.

Yes but running that Bugatti along the counter top must get boring even in the home shirley

lol Lewis.


That is it. This thing will never get old. Never ever.

Circa 2040, we will probably still be here, drooling over a holographic keyboard, and there will be that one new guy with a Mark XVII electric/cold fusion hybrid Cayenne, asking about Larry.

Perfect. Just perfect.


Speaking about drooling. Pops is MIA and we have no update.
What happened?
Did they ask him to sign a non-disclosure agreement in return for reviving the dead P!g?

If that's the case, I'm still counting on him to show them the "do not resuscitate" card hanging from the inside mirror, on principal alone.

Porsche service advisor and a 2011 Porsche Cayenne Turbo found at the bottom of the Hudson River. he was found firmly held in place by an A506 Cowboy Belt Buckle and was wearing what police have decsribed as a P!g Pen TShirt.

A Grand Jury was convened at a secure yet undisclosed cemetery to hear the facts behind the case.

Yeah, use the search function. It is every bit as reliable as a P!g in mid-town.

Pops never met a fruit he didn't like.

I don't expect some desert foreigner to know the difference between UES & midtown but where exactly did you see wings on my sandals?!



And speaking of fruits, I definitely do have a soft spot for you & your boyfriend slow.
