Wow... I love my ...

Bentley Continental GT ... I've got 18 cars ... 8 of which are Porsches ... Two Ferraris ... A Maserati ... Four bikes including two Ducatis ... One InfoStrada 916 ... Lots of great stuff ... And I can't stop driving my GT coupe ... It's a wonderful daily driver ... I bought it impulsively at an auction for a little over $50k ... 07 w 47k on the clock ... 3x black ... I'm just surprised at how compelled by it I am ... It does everything well and it's very good looking ... Anybody else had some seat time in one ? Comments ...

I am very happy with my 87 KIA Deluxe with 378k miles that burns a quart of oil every time I drive it. 0 to 60 has never happened.

Sounds like you are very proud of your Hot Wheels collection. Good for you.

Be sure to get to bed early since tomorrow is a school day and the bus arrives early.

He has (2) posts in the classifieds--(1) is a nice-looking 951 with almost zero info, and the other is a Targa Carrera "tribute" lauding CHECK OUT ON EBAY.

There is a Bentley in the background of one of the photos, so.....

Yeah, I was going to drive my Bugatti Veyron to my Malibu house today, but it's so damned hot on the sand and the tourist are wormy in September. I decided to jump in my Gulfstream G650 and head up to my Aspen chalet and take the Ferrari CA Spyder for a spin through the mountains. I need to hurry though, because we sail the Christensen 155 to Avalon tonight for dinner with the Clooneys. Yeah, the Clooneys. That's the ticket.

This isn't bragging.

philly - you may not have meant it, but your post came across the wrong way. While this is a Porsche forum, and Porsches can be expensive, not everyone here can afford a collection of 18 cars. Folks get rubbed the wrong way when they see a post like that, and it is easy to judge you as a pompous a$$.

It's like when you're a kid playing in a sandbox with a shovel and pail, and your rich neighbor shows up with a miniture motorized backhoe, and a butler in tow carrying his mean in a golden lunchbox, as he drives up to the playground in his 1/8th scale Ferrari Enzo. Wearing a custom tailored Gucchi suit. While his maid rolls out a red carpet from his playcar to said sandbox.

Just sayin'

Phil, as a whole, this forum doesn't carry that level of wealth. Most of us own or started with one mid-year 3.0 or 3.2 car. To start a post like that did come off looking like a very insecure person bragging about their material possessions. …Or an exaggerator or possible scammer.

Did you expect us all to go WOW! Will you take me for a ride???? There are Bentley forums you know.

Edit: I decided to use better judgement and let Philly keep his privacy.
