Rennlist - Porsche Discussion Forums - Any Rennlisters from New Zealand?

Here's one for you John............. http://www.carpoint.com.au/all-cars/...D-159752&Cr=49 I think we need to take bets on which of your fleet is first to go (be replaced) My pick is the TT with C4 be reverted to daily duties........

The red fetish is already owned in the Gruppe. No bets being taken on my next car but if I was then you are likely right, I'm stuck in the 964 world for a while yet.

PM sent on the Avant!

There is a good reason why the 996TT is in my collection, it's a far better DD than the C4. Even Kohi to CBD is a pain with a LWF. However, racing around the basement parking area sounds damn good. Maybe a once or twice per Summer drive. Horses for courses.

Does your car set off all the car alarms in the parkade? My wife thinks I'm completely immature (true!) as I love rolling through parking lots laughing as my car sets off all the alarms.

Thanks Jon. It certainly has come a long way since March. A fair amount of sunk funds as well to rationalize. No, surprisingly the C4 doesn't set off alarms. The Turbo 3.6 does with a close passby. Strange as you would think the Turbo is quieter with the turbo acting as a silencer.

Sorry to hear you are off, but I understand your reality.

Completely understand, although it's rare for my relatively quiet 997T to generate enough noise to make it happen. Another reason for me to install a Europipe exhaust...

The 944 with straight through pipes definitely does that! Its kind of fun driving up Vic Ave on a track day morning and usually setting off at lease a couple on the way up!! :D It always sets off the wife's Gti when i get home.
