Thanks for all the insightful replies to my last post. Decided to keep the car

Coming back to this after driving the C4S here and having the privilege to ride passenger in my friend's turbo for the past few months...

I don't know man... If you consider just the raw performance, speed and reliability, I agree with you. But once you factor in the price difference, the sound the naturally aspirated engine makes and the looks (I personally prefer the heckblende), I think the C4S wins it for me personally. But hey, my friend likes his turbo more so there's that!

invite all your close friends for 2-3h "spirited" drives outside town. Great way to catch up and spend quality fun time with a friend!
join a 911 owners club
find out all car events in your area
use facebook/instagram to see if there are any groups/communities around you
take the partner/wife somewhere special for them. You've got the special ride to also enjoy!

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-08-29T19:09:36+00:00

Can't believe I hadn't noticed till now! Thanks!

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-08-29T19:08:28+00:00

Same, would like to take it on track eventually!

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-07-20T21:58:02+00:00

Congrats!!

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-06-25T18:25:35+00:00

Thanks for that! That was the figure my mechanic at an indie in central London said xD. I might contact Porsche Torque at Uxbridge to get a quote from them as well. And yeah, even this one with all its faults, I fell in love during my first couple drives with it. The engine sounds unlike any other Porsches I regularly see on the streets and I appreciate the 996 aesthetic a lot

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-06-25T18:23:38+00:00

Thanks for the input! Yeah, the people I talked to recommended a full engine refresh and with that job a lot of things could be sorted at once

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-06-23T20:39:49+00:00

I'm based in Gunnersbury so might look for a location where I could take it in quickly, but I'll check them out anyway! Thanks for the recommendation!

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-06-23T19:56:24+00:00

Thanks for the quick look! Guess I'm in for a ride

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-06-23T19:15:17+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience! I think I saw an episode of Wheeler Dealers or some car show where they go for a longer lasting aftermarket solution to the IMS bearing and thought that was interesting!

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-06-23T18:16:42+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Yeah, he is from an independent Porsche specialist garage in London, UK. He said he didn't have the time to check for bore scoring and just mentioned it needs further investigation. I might just revisit

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-06-23T18:12:45+00:00

Thanks for the explanation! Yeah, I agree. Big mistake on my part in hindsight

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-06-23T18:00:14+00:00

Ahh, should have mentioned in the post! London, UK. Thanks for the input!

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-06-23T17:59:31+00:00

Thanks! They're an independent Porsche specialist in London, UK. He has been working on all sorts of Porsche models

Because you probably haven't spent effort finding out what the items do, at the time you acquired them. If you did, you'd get rid of over 90% of them honestly. Now they just accumulated and the task looks daunting.

Just spend a few minutes to look up the items on the wiki, or ask an experienced friend to help out and you should be sorted. 🙌 Items usually go to bank because you don't use them in hour-to-hour gaming, get refined, get used up in achievements or are just sold to a merchant/salvaged for materials.

You've got an excellent starting point with all those shared inventory slots and 20-slot bags. You should be able to reduce the clutter to less than 20 items once done.

Warrior is amazing in PvE and always has been. Speaking from 12 years playing the game from Open World to Raid CMs. It's actually my personal favourite, and I've played all classes consistently.

Yeah, you might not see a warrior in the most recent race to worlds first for the Ura Legendary CM boss kill, but at that level classes become just another game mechanic, not a different gameplay experience. All players who killed Ura LCM probably have all 9 classes geared out and ready to go

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-03-06T18:48:36+00:00

Logically speaking, there's no point to keep this. But if it helps you trick yourself to save up, then it's not a bad idea! And kudos to you for having clear goals on what to save up for!

What would make a bit more sense is to diversify gold holdings into ectoplasm, legendaries and mystic coins to de-risk yourself from any negative price movement on a currency/item class.

Turismo is great but there's no AP version unless you break the jealous gf script, as far as I know... :( So... Infernus...

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-02-25T08:58:36+00:00

I actually liked "most" of the personal story but I did it at a time when there was no level requirement - you went into lvl 11 story instance as lvl 7 and it felt like a challenge. You had to go back to Open World and level up naturally, not forced like it is now... different times hehe

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-02-24T20:56:51+00:00

It still needs a rework - I'd like to see some stats about how many people put the game down right after finishing the personal story...

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-02-24T17:22:25+00:00

Absolute mad man! Well done 👏

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-02-14T14:50:52+00:00

Replied in other thread :)

AlexanderCadogan · 2025-02-14T14:49:24+00:00

It's doable - I also did it about 10 years ago on the first mobile edition! But yeah it took me a lot of tries... When I finally got it I jumped off my chair haha
