I’m a heretic and drive it in the rain.

I assume oil seep made it more susceptible to grub affixation...

I also have nearly a month of brake dust on the front wheels.

Let's see... New wheels installed ~2 years ago... Yeap. That was the last time brake dust was thought about or dealt with.

You all don't even want to know the last time it got washed. Mass aneurisms would ensure.

Trying to make me out as the next Johnny Irish?



Technically it is true, I do not own a 996. Contrary to your post in another thread, it is a woman's name on the title (though it was mine on the check) and my name is on the title for my Cayenne :P

Looks just like Schnelly's except that it has the only wing that should ever be installed on a 996. And it's dirty. And you can see the primer through the faded paint on the roof. And the headlights have yellowed terribly. And I still haven't fixed the dent on the right fender where that bitch ran into me. So yeah... exactly the same.

Does seem close, but it's not offensive when you are describing your own car ;)
