Quite a tasty spec. Impossible to develop a car anywhere near that price i would think

Just realised - its the one 2 cars back in my avatar - I'm not saying whether that was the first lap or last lap!

Peter Stewart had his SLR Camera there but I don't think that there were many photos taken of the run itself. John H, Chris, Doug and I ran with the lead group.
Ron led (RSG road train). No time even for Doug to do his trade mark camera out the sunroof trick as we ran at a fair pace. Herman played up at idle the day before so I took the R. Doug said Lola kept him busy keeping up and I can imagine why. Even the PDK on sports mode couldn't always keep up with the selection I wanted. Might have to use the paddles/switches. Particularly when coming into a corner where I want faster down changes to ready for the power out phase. Either that or leave it in manic sports plus mode.
Had I been in Herman I may not have enjoyed it as much as no choice but to run at that speed. Maybe more aircooled runs to keep it fun.

On the positive side Lola is looking amazing and sounds great. The car in front 'did a Doug' and took a pic of us out its sunroof

Got to see the Orange T - didn't take any pics as didn't want to spoil the next reveal. Looks amazing in the flesh - that colour will just pop once all the trim is in.

Doug then went from the sublime to the ridiculous having picked me up in Pirongia (big thanks
) we endured an hour and a half from Bombay getting home. Inching forward in a manual = no fun at all. On the positive side Lola is looking amazing and sounds great. The car in front 'did a Doug' and took a pic of us out its sunroof

I'd lowball the leftie, slip in a big VW donk, run a stinger out back, sack it a few inches and leave it on steelies.
Or do a 911T with a big mowtah!
What is the equivalent word to bogan for a person who likes hotrodded Porsches?

The leftie runs out at $50k and the righty would surely not command $70k? I'd lowball the leftie, slip in a big VW donk, run a stinger out back, sack it a few inches and leave it on steelies.

And to your last question, the phrase you're looking for is..... 'Dave'

Big day for interesting Porsches on trademe.
The white 3.2 is underpriced, the lefty conversion blue 3.2 would be about right and the 928 GTS is lovely. $42.5 is an interesting price that will test the market to see if 928's are on the rise yet.
You know, if you were about to buy a $45k euro daily driver and wear $7k a year in depreciation, that 928 is a viable alternative.
