So, the most recent Macan showed up on the transport truck at 11:00 pm last night. This is one that I'm planning to drive for the winter. One thing I liked about it was that the previous owner appeared to be an enthusiast as there were several tasteful mods done to it: carbon fiber steering with mat...

Because I'm too lazy to rewrite it all in a normal tone, here's some of the crap I wrote up for Nationwide after Mrs. S's Jeep was hit last Friday. Nobody (except the dog) was in the car... It's pretty amazing that the ladies in the car we stopped to help didn't spear into the end of the guardrail ...

The red one is nice but not so sure about that interior color...

Yeah, if only I could get a red interior on that GTS, then have body color Sport Classics like the white one has, then that would be something . . .

And, yesterday, I was perusing the “Online Vehicle Exchange“ listings, where dealers make their inventory available for purchase while keeping the cars on their own lots. So, it’s not really an auction - the idea is basically to split the profit on a car if another dealer has a buyer that wants the ...

The black one’s basically sold, and I need something to drive this winter other than the 996tt, so I bought a white over (what else) red 2015 Macan S out of the Seattle auction on Wednesday. It will arrive on Wednesday. It has 75k miles and no accidents. The thing I really like about it is that it h...

Well, I suppose we're not all bad. It just seems that way.

So, about a month ago, one of the two 4-post lifts that I have in my garage started puking hydraulic fluid out of the end opposite to the piston goes in and out. So, basically, it was spewing oil out of a spot that appears to be just a solid end piece. My initial assumption was that the weld broke w...

"You're so honest and compassionate. You should be... a lawyer." ;) ;) Ha, right! I settled a case recently that I did for a friend who got sued over the sale of a vintage Porsche. The friend was a retired guy and the buyer was, you guessed it, a lawyer. The entire case was made up. But, ...

So, yesterday I bought a 2016 Macan S, black over red interior, from the Dallas auction. It will arrive on Saturday. I had a post-sale inspection done on it at the auction, and it passed just fine. Being an S model, it isn't nearly as well optioned as the 2017 Turbo. But, it also only has 51k miles ...
