That is why the Europeans buy cars in the states if they want a nice one, no mercy over there.

Yeah .. but they REALLY drive them, and REALLY get to use them they way they were meant to be driven and we don't for the most part... so I guess it's a wash ahahah!
Not that I am saying one way is more correct than the other.. I guess I can respect in a way; both thier way of enjoying the cars and how we enjoy them. but I have to say driving one EVERYDAY would be the way to own one... it's pure sweetness..... life is SO short right..why deprive yourself of driving the best damn sports car ever made!!

I am not critizing their behavior, they are cars they are meant to be driven. Alright I am putting studded snow tires on my cup car on Monday.

hahahah! oh, I know you were not critizing.. you make a good point, and it's true. although If I had my way I like to have it thier way over ours! ahahahaha. with the tracks and the roads to enjoy the cars Porsche makes for us to drive. and the 997 GT3RS is perhaps the best PAG have come out with since the 550. I think who ever owns the RS in that picture has the right idea. IMHO

yeah, those are the CHEAPO versions you 'waste' by using them during the winter w/ winter tires. probably hard to find a set of steelies w/ winter tires already mounted

Well I have two beaters one winter V70 R wagon, AWD which is a must out here. And a M3 convertible for the summer. All the Porsches are just toys.

My Carrera is worth less than 1/10 of his RS and I strictly avoid driving it when it is raining...

How silly is that!

Then again, I suppose my bank account holds far less than 1/10 of his.
