Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

BTW, if anyone is in a generous mood, I’ll take this 930 that showed up this year via a new KCRPCA member transplant from SoCal.

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

BTW, important safety tip. At least on Porsche Macans, and I suspect many other cars with electric parking breaks, if you tell the computer to "close" the parking break when the caliber is not sitting on the rotor, the computer will keep turning the damn electric motors until it spits the...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

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 ma...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

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 . . .

Re: On Becoming a Macan "Expert"

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 ...

Re: On Becoming a Macan "Expert"

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...
