Maybe, maybe not, I don't really know. Car is sick, made by Carrosserie Alpina and Schirmer !

I didn't trade a car, but I did trade any presents I had coming for my next 2 birthdays, 3 Christmases and 4 Father's Days.

... that, and every time my wife wants a beer, she just yells "PORSCHE!" instead and then it's up to me to deliver. She likes a lot of beer.

I was about to buy a nice Porsche 356 for about the same price but my wife hated it- no AC, too slow, etc. So when the GT4 became available, she said get that instead

I didn't trade anything in for it but I'm probably going to sell my Turbo. Even though the turbo is a better car in most every way (faster, roomier, more practical DD, etc), it's not nearly as much FUN to drive and doesn't sound as incredible either. It sits on the top bunk feeing left out.

Is that a serious question? He told me the sound is great but he has an aftermarket exhaust.

2015 Cayman GTS. Loved it. Drove it 10k miles in 10 months, but GT4 was dream status.
