I never learned gangsta in high school since I went to private schools and was never one to care about being accepted in a social group. So "werd" is all I could come up with, other than dawg and homes which you already said.

SC's are loud, inefficient by comparision. Porsche enthusiasts like refined, quiet power (for the most part).

Plenty of people out there who like the looks of the car & don't necessarily care for the extra power. Besides, 911 air cooled engines sound better in NA mode than turbocharged.

Not all blowers are loud...very little, if any "whine" with this one...I've heard 'em.
You don't know it's there until you are "blown off"..

Why in the world would I be jealous of someone who has a 930 Tuuuuurbooo? When I have one of the BEST Porsche's EVER built a 69 911S....

Don't U know that God and Ferry Porsche RESTED in 1974....and anything built after 1973 is well just a parody of itself...overwrought, overblown and over priced...luxo mobiles masquerading as Sports Cars....

not for a seattle DD.
