Rather have that house across the street. Even in FL right now.

That house in the picture looks just like a house here in Saratoga.

I know its not though, but the resemblance is uncanny

i was agreeing with this

mainly the boxter comparison, not really about the VAG thing.

Jim, I would never buy a Lambo to be quite honest. I was looking at several cars before I found my 996. Here’s why I didn’t buy each:

Gallardo- Most have e-gear, even though it was a several thousand dollar option. Anytime it breaks down (which it will), you have to get it towed to NYC for work. Looks sick, will get bitches, but you’ll have more nut swinging dudes than anything.

F360M- Old. Still expensive, as Ferrari’s hold their value very well for a high end car.

Maserati Gran Turismo S- Expensive to maintain, baby Ferrari. Not sporty enough for me.

C6 Z06- If I wanted a Silverado interior, I would’ve bought one of them.

R8- Could not find one in my price range. =(

For what I paid for the 996 (around $70k) you could pick up a good condition 997TT from an auction.

Jim,

You can get 996T’s for around 35K-40K right now.

Hard to beat that bang for the buck.

C6ZO6.

Interior gripes are over-rated (nothing personal Cossey). In fact, I just drove one and it’s the best stock car you can purchase under 50K. Period. Big fucking period.

It’s fine, along with the C5 interior also. Who the fuck drives around thinking of what their HVAC controls look like, ha. It’d be one thing if the interiors were hideous, but they are fine. Keep my technology under the hood, thanks.
