How about adding a "Air Cooled only forum?
I've enjoyed reading and learning on this forum for years. I have a 4 decade long passion for the "air cooled" Porsches especially. Don't think I don't love many of the new generation water cooled cars. The pace is up and the new cars are great but I, personally, have a real appreciation for the Air Cooleds and driving a car without air conditioning, power brakes and steering or extra weight. I'm far from alone. Most true Porsche enthusiasts started or fell in love with an early car.
The newer cars are a lot more comfortable, fast and beautiful. But, I'm a driver, who loves the feeling i get from my hot rod '75 and the early cars. Would you think a forum dedicated to the huge Air Cooled Porsche community would be something you'd like to see or not? What do you think? Yea or Nay?

This one pretty much is air cooled only. I see a few posts from water cooled folks occasionally and people usually point them to another forum more suited for their cars. At least that's what I noticed.

You apparently didn't realize that this is the air cooled forum. 996's, 997's, 986's, 944's, 951's, 968's and 928's all have there own forums.

I try to drive every new model/year as they come out to see if I need to replace my Carrera 3.2. Since my daily driver is a CTS and I'm an old fart I need the comfort over the long miles. The new 991 reminded me more of my CTS than my Carrera. For hauling A#$% on a twisty road and being shot out of a cannon there is nothing like an air cooled 911.

Guess I've been on this forum for so long I didn't realize there were other 911 forums mentioned here. Looking at it that way I can see the focus here would be air-cooled Porsches. Thanks to Hank Gains for stating his reflection of what it is to drive a light weight, air-cooled car sans all the gadgets

You need to shorten that sig to 3 lines.
