Google his name and you'll find out what a racist POS he is. He beat an Asian guy for being in his neighborhood so badly the guy lost an eye. I think he did time for it too.

You've lived in Boston. Name one kid from Southie who hasn't done that.

That's EXACTLY what I was thinking!

The Asian beating part notwithstanding, I can find little fault with the guy's attitudes and career, well, except for the Marky-Mark phase...

Porsche's dont just leak oil like that. Some idiot tore the case apart either on a speed bump or a curb

Actually he beat the guy up for a beer. Mitigating circumstances.
But he did serve his time and move on. I am an Entourage fan, I am inclined to forgive him.

Well, none of us would clean it up either if it was our car that puked all over the side of the road. I wouldn't know where to start. The only time I've cleaned up spilled fluids is either in my garage or at the track, with the right equipment.

The perfectly straight line of the oil slick is a little strange, to put it mildly. How would you accomplish that??

It's also weird to be a multi-millionaire, (hundreds of millions?), and drive a regular 7 to 10 year-old 996. Either you are a car guy or you aren't. If you're a poser in L.A., you drive a 2010 911 or other 6-figure car. If you're a real car freak and you can afford a new GT3 RS, you don't drive an $8.00 996.

I saw Ted Danson driving a new GT2 the other day.
