The silly chermanz call the plow a "splitter". Now, let's talk about the heating and airconditoning. Talk about bogus! I noticed that there were no turn signals either. On a car of that price?

they could at least include a sunroof. I mean come on!

And where the hell is the stereo???? BTW I test drove my 964 cup in Luxemburg, in rush hour traffic on damp cobblestoned streets with (imo) way too many stoplights. Still apparently able to father children but cannot attest to the condition of various internal organs. Congrats on the 1-2-3 etc, I couldn't figure how I missed this one!

Shhhh. If Porsche hears you, the next US bound cup car may have one.

Add me to the list of folks who got "got" by the 123456. At any rate, I can't believe the cup car doesn't come with a nav system and cd player and a way to plug in my ipod.

and the wheels - no 19 inch option, no chrome and I didn't see any of that vital deviated stitching either.

Crazy Canuck

even if they came with 19s I'd sell em on e-bay. Spinnaz is where its at.

if you pimp a cup car, does that change it's class?

I run in GTPimp

NO F*&%$#@G CUP HOLDER!!!!!

Junk I tell you, they're junk. On the one I drove the steering wheel kept falling off into my lap, and the windows wouldn't roll down. What's with that?

A/C doesn't work on mine, also the radio is a bit weird cause all I hear is some guy shouting at me to give it gas and keep my foot down?

And on the one I drove, the brakes were REALLY grabby, especially after they warmed up. They squeaked a bit, too. And boy was that car loud! They need to add thicker carpeting & more sound insulation so I can listen to the Montovani CD's that Larry keeps sending me.

My heat works : ) Actually its on everytime i drive her ... Very good for those wanting to loose some weight. My suit on the other hand is nasty according to my fiancee.

Is he telling you to go straighter and to push the gas pedal all the way down? Lot's of rookies make that mistake or so I've been told.

J-RAD

I think you're full of it.

I am sick and tired of hearing "I want to drive my 997 GTS Cup on the street but it rides a little rough and..."

Listen, just because it doesn't have cup holders or blinkers doesn't mean it's a bad street car. Using hand and arm signals out the window is a pertectly legitimate method for signaling turns.


In addition, you never have to worry about changing blinker fluid.

Besides, cupholders are useless anyway. You simply end up holding your 44oz. Big Gulp between your legs like everyone else because they don't fit the recepticle. Face it, Porsche is progressive on this issue and being environmentally responsible by not producing needless plastic items that serve no purpose and eventually take up space in landfills. I say good on them.

Some say it's too loud for the street. To that I say: B.S.! That's intentional. It warns the deer, small children, and other animals that you're coming, thus saving countless number of deer-lives and stuff. All manufacturers should be so considerate.

Of course such environmental responsiblity doesn't come cheap, thus the premium price on the car.
