Bobby's used car lot and Free Carfax

[J. Barron DeJong]

True. This is the race car.

The guy that owns our store runs five of these.

Better. Words have meaning, can’t just throw them around all willy-nilly like.

When I was in racing a guy was running a Murcielago in American LeMans without any factory support (from what I understood). Must have been a very expensive endeavor to achieve some pretty mediocre results.

Totally randomly a guy drove by the house yesterday and stopped and hollered up to me. He wanted to buy the car, offered me $50k on the stop. I respectfully declined. Hoping it goes for around $80k. Fingers crossed.

41,500? ouch, shouda taken that 50 grand...

[Mazderati]

Q4 just got a lot more interesting.

[BmillsSkier]

Isn't Porsche printing money already? Why?

According to the article, profitability is up 22% yoy.

[Timberridge]

What's better than some money?
Ans. Even more money.

€10.6 billion in proceeds, ~1/2 they can put towards the business

*carries the one, adds up columns...*

Yep, this checks out.

By the sheer number of GT3's I see parked outside the local Sunday brunch car guy hangout, they're selling those like hotcakes. Last weekend I counted 8 of them.

Seriously. I was on a drive last weekend and counted no fewer than 6 992 GT3s in various skittle colors tearing up the mountain roads in a pretty small geographic area.

The GT3 to population ratio must have been off the charts that day.

Does anyone buy the run of the mill $100K Carrera any more?

[Mazderati]

The one time I come in cynic-light.

@TR, if you're talking new I don't think $100k Carreras exist.

I was at a fairly big cookout yesterday and there were not one but 3 new P-cars there, two were pretty basic Carreras (sport-chrono added to one), which are still pretty freaking amazing cars, and the last was a new to him 718 Spyder which was a very cool car, a detuned 4.0 liter naturally aspirated flat 6 from the GT3 dropped in a 3200lb car.

Noted. That's the price on a new Corolla these days I guess.
I need to recalibrate on the new economy. Happened to be on the NYS Thruway the other day and a large tow behind RV was in the lane next to us. Wife asks how much that costs. I guess $100-120K. She looks it up, $275K.

[BmillsSkier]

Corolla, Carrera, Corolla, Carrera...

I can see how this sucks the fun out of new car shopping.

[Bobby Stainless]

Package deal.

22 Nardo Gray RSQ8


22 R8 Performance rwd

[Core Shot]

Again with the red brakes. Why!
That car is beautiful. And your eye is drawn to the brakes?
Fuck brembo

I don’t care if it has twenty pistons. It’s just a caliper.

Why not whitewalls? Or a radio antenna with a smiley ball
Or fuzzy dice on the rear view.

[Bobby Stainless]

You'll love this.

[BmillsSkier]

Lol.

I’ll miss the R8 when everyone is driving iPads and laptops.

[Timberridge]

...with red mice.

...with red mice.

IBM started this shit with that gaudy red track-knob in the middle of the keyboard way back when.

[I Skied Bandini Mountain]

I like the grocery getter.

[Bobby Stainless]

Porsche has been doing red and yellow calipers for ages. Yellow being ceramics and red being steel rotors on the "S"s and up. They've just recently started to let people get black on the higher level trims. They look like crap imo.

Speaking of. Got a 22 Turbo Cab delivered to the house late last night.
