Schumi 04-14-2010 12:26 AM

sweet jesus guys, I want this one:

2002 Porsche 986 Roadster Cabrio - (Boxster)


Really are some great deals on 986's in california.

porsche4life 04-14-2010 12:28 AM

Your down payment money is sitting in my safe.... ;)

Geronimo '74 04-14-2010 01:45 AM

Man those Boxters are cheap over there, they would cost more than twice that price over here....

GH85Carrera 04-14-2010 05:48 AM

That boxster has a salvage title. That kills a lot of resale value right there. And it's a chick car :rolleyes:

porsche4life 04-14-2010 06:25 AM

As long as it is bought cheap enough I really wouldn't worry about a salvage title.... Its a driver... not a collector car....

Geronimo '74 04-14-2010 09:04 AM

What does that mean, salvage title? Has it been in an accident?

porsche4life 04-14-2010 09:28 AM

Means a number of things.... Wrecked, stolen, been swimming... Most likely wrecked and rebuilt...

Usually it means some insurance company considered it a total write off. It would cost more to fix than it was worth. As soon as they pay off the policy holder the car belongs to the insurance company. They don't want a car so they sell is as salvage.

I have seen some scary cars that are "salvaged." Unless I knew the complete history of what and how it was fixed I would never touch a salvaged car.

Many cars that have an airbag deployment are totaled because it cost so much to repair the airbag system properly.

Ya ya ya...

If it hasn't been swimming... and I can tell it was fixed right... I'll buy a salvage car if the price is adjusted accordingly.... If I just want something to drive....

You'd be genuinely surprised at how wet a car has to get before they'll total it..............................

RKDinOKC 04-14-2010 11:25 AM

It's not an S, It's a girls car.

Never understood that mentality. Doesn't matter to me.

If I can afford the S, I'll get one.

Automotive Sexual profiling. Girl = Cute, Boy = Performance

Geronimo '74 04-14-2010 01:30 PM

I have never driven one, but I sure would like to try. I bet they're a hoot to drive, even the least powerfull versions.

Besides Schumi, you already have long hair and pinkish lips, go ahead, buy the girly version, nobody will notice...
J/K!!!
:D

It is almost my bed time, so good evening guys. :)

porsche4life 04-14-2010 09:53 PM

Evening boys.... Just went and got the wifi set up in my grandmas house... Delivered her new laptop as well... Such a shame... Its a nice machine... all she does is play those stupid treasure hunt games...

I give it less than a month before I am getting phone calls b/c something doesn't work..



In other news... I met my future landlord... I will be living in one of his duplexes in the fall...just not sure which end and when I will move in... Depends on the current tenants.

Geronimo '74 04-14-2010 10:41 PM

Morning Beeotches,

Sid, are you moving out to live on your own, or is this lodgement for when you are at school?

porsche4life 04-14-2010 10:44 PM

Have you been living under a rock for the last year?

I've been living in an apt with a HS bud.... We got some less than savory neighbors(read drug dealers and petty criminals) Been riding out the lease... Buddy is being deployed to Afghanistan.... I'm moving to a 1bd place so I can have peace and quiet.....

Geronimo '74 04-14-2010 10:46 PM

I thought so, you're too young and irresponsible to live on your own.... :p
