How does it drive? Well, I don't know.
Because I don't fit in it. That's my son driving it home from the auto museum, where it was delivered. He said it drove pretty well - underpowered, but fun around the corners. Overall, I'd say it is in decent condition. There are a few little things that I will do to it, but then it will go up on Bring A Trailer in a couple of months. It should be a fun little car to play with.
You don't fit why?? Too tall?

If I've learned nothing else in 68 years I have learned to be kind...most of the time.

Why would you buy a car you don't fit in?

I think there is more to the story than just beer. Last time I saw you trying to exit the lamborghini you were struggling a bit

More turmoil in the 991 forum. Guy just bought a car and noticed a wrinkle in the alcantara on the shift knob, and is wondering what to do.

Another guy says he gets water spots from water that drips from the side mirror, and is wondering what to do.

Easy...Sell it as a roller as that is simply unacceptable!
