It's unthinkable to me that the factory won't race the CarreraGT. The 959 was raced in anger by the factory at LeMans as a 961. It did well I think making it up to 4th before it burned to the ground....

To add my experience, A few months ago I took out my sound pad to save weight but now the engine is a bit too harsh. It's not a good sound. Too much intake noise.

I ordered a new mat from Pelican...

Man those Fuchs look nice. They gotta be my favorite Porsche wheel of all time. Especially in the 16" diameter and 8 or 9" wide.

We already have seen the effects of "deregulating" the electric power industry...California's power fiasco in 2000-2001 and this summer's east coast blackout.

Lots of companies offer the C2 look for earlier cars but why ruin a good thing. Your car looks great as is and will be worth more in the long run if you keep the factory panels and trim on it.

We like to blame the OPEC folks for high gas prices but the real blame lies in the boardrooms of Exxon, Shell, Chevron, etc. Like someone else said it's pure greed.

If you mean headers with no heat exchangers then YES. A few companies sell headers. They save weight and make more hp but at the expense of a heating system in your car. The headers may also not have...

In CT about three weeks ago the price topped out at about 2.14 for self serve. Now it's down to about 1.99. Two years ago it was about 1.29 for the same 91 octane self serve.

Well said. But the BMW GTR V8 was an over reaction to Porsche's GT3RS. It wasn't the right thing for BMW to do and in my opinion it tarnished their image a bit. But on the other hand Porsche did the...

Terry, one other thought. Today you have to drop $100-200million to be near the top of F1 or even ALMS LMP900. That implies that you need BOTH a large number of units sold and a healthy profit. But I...

In the USA the 91 and 92 were 3.3ltrs and the 94 was a 3.6ltr. There was no 93. But all 964 based turbos used CIS and trailing arms. The 993TT was a 96 and a 97.
