It’s Porsche VIN’d, but I’ll still call it a Ruf, since 1. It has most of their things on it w/ the exception of body work and wheels. 2. I bought it from Ruf.

I swear I saw a post where you said you were gonna go back to school and spend money sensibly and then I see this.

Cool but I guess you changed your mind a little on the spending issue.

Still no spending issue. This is me spending more sensibly. Ask Mr. Clark. And Justin. They know what I originally planned on buying.

And I’m still going back to school.

Nice car and good to hear your going back to school. Hope you have better investments planned in the near future (house, stocks, ect).

A carrera 4s is not a highway monster. I think they trap 110 stock. What did smokinss trap? Wasn’t it pretty similar?

Good for you man… I guess sensible is a relative term. Some will buy a car worth 50% of their yearly income, others will buy one that’s 5%…

That being said, I shudder to think of what was on your mind prior to “settling” on a silver blur from Pfaffenhausen.

As have I, cossey is no idiot. Just because hes treating himself a little bit for what he had to go through doesnt mean hes going to blow his whole wad.

Like none of you would treat yourself to something nice after having to go through a bunch of bullshit etc…

+1 I know cossey was seriously looking at a skyline before he got this beautiful thing, while the skyline would have been bad ass, it probably would not have been as good of an investment.

Not to mention everyone would be swinging from his nuts ![http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u135/derekb_sharp/NutSwinger.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/8/c/8c33cd1166b281eeee3737b7ef19f5fcd850e186.jpeg)

Yea, no GTR’s for me yet. If I could find a very good condition LEGAL R32 GTR I’d prolly pick one up, but again, it has to be legal. Before I actually got any money, I was looking for F430’s. I decided a Ferrari could come in the future after I’m more well established.

Next up is finding wheels for this car.
