Funny how thoughts change
 
Now that I no longer own a Porsche? I click here...O.T. Don't even bother much with "tech" these days. I mean, let the newbies to 911 ownership figure it out for themselves...poor bastards!

(edit) waiting for the single star...

You never figured anything else to your 911 than waxing it and changing the oil, poor porscheless old bastard !

I hooked you up, Paul. But I didn't mean it.

I could buy anything Porsche makes...I just don't want it anymore. BTW, have you set valves recently??? I did that in '66....Aurel? Pray tell me how I should have done that...

HOORAH! I have EARNED that single star. ;)

Do you miss your 914 at all?

WOW I actually managed to vote twice, somehow. :cool: Sorry, it messed up the perfect rating, though!

Mad Mike 04-26-2008 06:48 PM

Seemed to of missed the issue
 
Paul,

I am not a regular on PPOT, just wondering why someone would grill you for formerly owning a Porsche?

Paul, if he gets your goat, just put him on "ignore".

Just hanging around waiting for the Grim Reaper to take to you the land of eternal sleep, huh? :rolleyes:

Yeah, it's funny. Before I totaled my '86, I spent a huge amount of time in the tech forum. Now, even though I'm more of a BMW guy these days, and budgets preclude any realistic possibility of Porsche ownership in the near future, I still hang out on a Porsche BB. Weird.

I'm going to try to stay out of this one.

Put "who" on ignore? ;)

speeder 04-27-2008 06:55 AM

C'mon, can't all you old right-wingers just get along?

Gogar 04-27-2008 08:01 AM

Yeah, can't all you guys without cars get along? ;)

Jims5543 04-27-2008 08:02 AM

Paul, I think your a really cool guy, the posts about Ron a John make me believe your a stand up guy and a lot of fun to be around.

Your closed mindedness about cars is really something else though. you are missing out on so many great cars out there sticking with just one generation of one marque.

I loved owning my hot rodded 911 and hope to own another someday but along the way I have played with many cars, while I am a rotorhead at heart, I see other cars that catch my interest and if I can afford to, give them a try. One thing will always be though, I will always have an RX7. Its just what gets parked next to it in the garage that changes.

Who knows my next Porsche may be a 944 or Cayman or I might mess with an Elise or another MINI Cooper again. So many great cars out there, so little money and time. :D

I love my 928, not sure if the neighbors do though. With it's 3" off-road Borla exhaust, it is definitely not subtle. >:}

PS: The part about my neighbors is not true. They all love the Shark, especially the kids.
