Picked up a new Porsche today!

Thuy and I were out doing a bit of shopping and when I laid eyes on this sleek silver beauty I knew I had to have it! Never thought I'd be able to afford a car of this caliber, but hey, you only live once right! Can't wait to really put it through its paces!








They have another really cool Porsche Lego set that is a race scene with two 911 Cup cars

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

Are you going to upgrade the ECU or leave it stock?

Did my kids show you how to place the lego for maximum damage? The last step from the stairs to the floor for a good hard stomp on a lego is sure to produce some new vocabulary words.

You've seen how many legos the kids have! Daddy needs his own toys!

Oh I learned it from our boys. They usually place a hotwheel halfway up too so you are already hobbling and stumbling when you get to the bottom. Crafty little ****s!

What's the scale of that beauty? If it's close to 1/18, I may just need to add it to my collection!

It's somewhere close to 1/24 maybe? Here it is on my 15" MacBook.

Too Cool! I look for it on Amazon, a bit more pricey, so I went to Toys R Us.com and picked one up for my desk. There's a promo for $5 off for Lego Orders more than $25, so I got two and with shipping and tax only about $16 each. Screaming deal.
