Thank you Road & Track for making my 996 affordable!

Post by B3DAWG » Sat Feb 03, 2018 6:13 am

I'm sure some of you won't be surprised by reading this article. But I'm thankful these types of opinions hit the mainstream magazines. Keep'm coming! Nothing like grabbing a 996 with only 45K miles for the price of used Camry.

Check it out 996Outpost Brothas!

Screw R&T! They don't even know that there were 996's sold as 2005 models(witness their sub title)! SCREW EM! Of course I had to correct a National PCA magazine guy a few years ago, as well. So it must be a well kept secret.
