91C2wrencher that was hilarious and I will use it, but an asteroid is in the atmosphere. A hemisphere is half a sphere.

What was the best thing before sliced bread?

If the s in sc stands for super, as in super carrera, why isn't it faster than the previous carreras?

Why use brake drum/rotors in the rear? Isn't this redundant?

Why is the ignition switch on the left side? Did I buy a left-handed 911?

Faster starts at Le Mans. Driver can start the car as he's jumping in.
But, I do recall someone driving my baby and turned it to the right to turn it off! Screeech! Bummer. BTW, it was a left handed person

Why don't all vehicles use horizontally opposed engines?

Why do people still by BMWs when there is a Porche?

And why can't people understand that gun control is the ability to hit one's target! Anyone who can't control a gun doesn't deserve one!

Because I can have a V-12 cruiser and a flat 6 sports car!
