Come to think of it, did it even come with a roll bar in '55?

I'm pretty sure the roll bar wasn't available until '64. That old thing was just an all out Frankenstein's monster of misfit parts. lol

Drove a 6sp Cayenne GTS today. 4.2 V8 I think. Grunty. Half a liter smaller than the powerplant in our Tahoe, but 3x as fast.

Just got an 2013 Mercedes C63 2 months ago, 6.3L of pure joy. Guess I'm too new to post pics or videos but it sounds sweet.

You need 500 posts in order to post pics.

But PM Rontele a pic of your wife's tits. He is a mod and will reduce it to 10 posts.

What year? I thought they did away with the MT two generations ago.

Brembo Racing 2-Piece Porsche Replacement Disc

$1627.20 – $2395.20

Brembo 2 Piece Porsche CCM Replacement Rotors

Replacement brake rotors specifically engineered by Brembo to replace your factory $10,000 PCCB rotors.

Our recommendation is once you receive your new Porsche equipped with PCCB rotors is to immediately take them off and store them for when it comes time to sell the car. Run the Brembos for better track results and more durability. It's one of those cases where spending $4K now will save you $tens-of-thousands in pretty short order. That, my racing friends, is a great performance investment.
