996tt is at a low point price-wise because of the IMS problem on non-turbo cars.
997tt - nothing to think about. A gem.
Maserati - My time with my GranTurismo as a DD is like having sex all day every day. Has to be the right color - Bordeaux, white, blue, grey. Black makes it disappear. Fantastic looks, sounds, smell. Bullet-proof Ferrari-built engine & ZF A.T. AND, room for 4 full-size adults. Oh! And, a MUCH softer ride even in "Sport" mode.
Nicely put....I can't wait for this $hity weather we're having to get warmer real soon.

Such a difficult choice really .. I was trying to decide between a Gulfstream 650 ( quite nippy) but something about a civilianized 777 seems to do the job better from a luggage point if view. With the 777 I can fly the P1, Veyron and 918 with me, which is quite handy. Still, need space for the mechanics too. Good help so hard to find these days.

Of course, it may all be fantasy like the rest of this thread..........

Speaking of DeLoreans and flux capacitors, for all of those Back to the Future fans... yesterday was the date Marty McFly arrived at when he travels to the future! Yes, that's right... January 28, 2014, and yes, I guess I am that old. Waaaaah! Certainly didn't figure I'd be in a Porsche back in October 1985!

Sorry but that date is a hoax. A quick search on Snopes.com indicates that the Back-to-the-future date is Oct 21, 2015 :-)

I'd say go with a modified Smart ForTwo, like this one. Then you won't have to make any compromises.

Seriously? What's the purpose of putting up a hoax date for that? People have too much time on trheir hands. Oh well, unfortunately, it still means I'm old. LOL!

Wow, just out of curiosity I searched his posts.

Not a single thread started by him contains any reply to postings members posted on his thread. all the time!.

I find it kinda interesting... most of his posts are about meeting up in out of nowhere....

hmnnnnnmmm,,,

I would certainly NOT show up to any of his "meetings". Then again I heard he was getting a 918 as his DD.

Probably someone from OT playing a long-term joke on the Canadian forum. My guess is that it's an american from the northeastern states, bored of winter and trying to pass the time until spring comes.


.... either that or Adrian came into a pile of cash and wants to trade in the neon for a lambo.
