My Porsche!

[Rupert]

I just bought this one-owner 1986 944! 







100 kmiles, good records, most of the little bits (tools, pop-top case, etc.), rare color, OMFGWTFBBQ!

No, seriously, I pretty much can't believe it myself, yet.

Congrats!

[Vinsanity]

wow. I'd ask why you decided to buy a third car, but IMHO, noone needs a reason to buy a Porsche

[Rich]

That's awesome.  I gotta see it!

How's it drive?

[the Teuton]

Your yard looks as if a walrus pissed on it.

That said, yes, I'm a little jealous. Congraturations. Lovely car.

[Rupert]

Great! It's an awesome car; lightyears ahead of certain British convertibles.

I have to go out for work all week, and then the mechanic will have it (just a couple of things...) until after Labor Day, and then I'm taking it to Tahoe to meet some friends... So, after that?

[CALL_911]

Awesome, awesome car. Congratulations, man!

I'm jealous that you get to take it to Tahoe.

Yeah, in Boise, if you don't water, your yard reverts to its natural desert state. I think watering lawns is for chumps and people with kids, so...

Thanks, though.

I'm trying to sell the MG, so it's only three cars for a short time.

[Rupert]

Awesome, awesome car. Congratulations, man!

Thanks!

I got a random call from a friend with a family cabin in S Lk Tahoe, inviting me to join him there for a few days, and that was a pretty good argument to buy it, right there.

[J86]

You 'tard. 

That is awesome, enjoy!

[Onslaught]

cool

[Rupert]

cool

Thanks!

[Rupert]

You 'tard.  

That is awesome, enjoy!

Yeah, I know.

(About the 'tard-ness, but also that it's awesome).

[Cookie Monster]

Nice!

Though you should've bought a Miata.

[Rupert]

Pssh, whatever, conformist.

[Rupert]

One area where the 944 has a biiiig advantage over any Miata, MG, etc, is in front seat leg room. I could never drive the Miata for more than a couple of hours at a time, because my legs would get sore. In this car, I have about as much room to move my legs, albeit with a lower seat, as I have in the Explorer. This car is road trip ready, and an ideal GT.

[Laconian]

NICE!

[J86]

Yeah, I know.

Hey I'm just jealous... on what I imagine is a fairly similar budget to my own (shoestring to say the least) you've had a lot more balls than I...

[GoCougs]

Wow, nice find. How much may I ask?

[Laconian]

Ummm, yeah.

You might want to get the license plate MYPRSCHE, mmmmkay? yeahhhhh...

[Rupert]

I was thinking of getting a sticker for one of my bikes that says, "My other car is a Porsche."

I have a job; it pays reasonably well.

[Rupert]

Thanks. I paid $4500 for it, which is about $500 more than I was hoping, but $1000 less than they were asking. Good enough.

yeah, jeez, what are ya, mid 20s w/ a Porsche...   Screw working in finance!

[Rupert]

NICE!

Thanks! I might bring it through Seattle sooner than later, actually.

Yep, it's all about the gubment.




Hehehe, actually, yeah, I have all the finance guys beat, don't I?
