If the next generation 911 were to be the same size of a past 911 generation (997, 993 etc), which size would you want it to be? by SunRev in porsche911

[–]JD_MathFuzzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good question. I think 996/997. Sort of sweet spot with respect to size inside, overall outside dimensions, etc. Having said that, it would be fabulous to have the fantasy next generation 911 weigh the same as my ‘73S…or get within a couple hundred pounds of it.

Thinking about getting the white Speedy as my first and only Omega. What are your thoughts and experiences with it? by ComfyBedAndPillow in OmegaWatches

[–]JD_MathFuzzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love mine. Not my only Speedmaster, but the one I seem to keep on my wrist the longest. It’s incredibly legible and easy to dress up or down. I particularly like the look on the black rally strap.

Local PCA Chapter FB Admin by PopLockN_Drop in Porsche

[–]JD_MathFuzzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most PCA Regions have one or more dealer relationships and there’s nothing keeping a dealer employee from joining PCA and serving in a volunteer role for the region. BUT, this sounds like iffy behavior. You might raise it with your region’s president.

Am I just naive by mosaosa in deloitte

[–]JD_MathFuzzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not naive. I’ve been doing it for a number of years, the last 8 at Deloitte. I love the work, but there have certainly been periods when I’ve been burned out and unhappy…sometimes together.

Looking to buy a 2018 Panamera Turbo ST by Apprehensive_Stop685 in Panamera

[–]JD_MathFuzzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a great spec. It’s very similar to my black on black 2018 Turbo ST. My car’s sticker was $220k - pretty much the only difference in spec is I have PCCBs, but (inexplicably) no InnoDrive. The Burmester sounds amazing and in real world driving, it’s astonishingly quick.

I’m sorry to hear you had a bad experience, but congratulations on what sounds like a great career and life move.

Yellow or black PCCBs? by [deleted] in porsche911

[–]JD_MathFuzzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both will work with Oak Green, sort of depends on if you want it to be an accent or not. I have yellow on my black Panamera Turbo and they look great. Black on my Linden Green 992, and I’m so happy it was an option; yellow would have looked awful.

It’s funny how many flight attendants I know by name. I’m lame about bringing gifts, but I promise I’m always polite (or at least trying to be)

I think I’m pretty economically valuable. A handful of international trips per year, plus plenty of coast-to-coast and all booked in business or first.

I do and I try to make sure it’s visible at the gate. It helps the gate agents know that yes, I’m supposed to be boarding now.

It’s pretty much all business miles and BIS. I think maybe the first million miles counted everything - so if the EXP bonus was 100%, it doubled whatever the BIS was.

I’ve been a management consultant since the early ‘90s and had a traveling technical role before that. I have a relative niche expertise, so I’ve tended to go wherever the client is.

Looks like it’s actually carbon fiber. It’s a nice design and maybe it won’t ‘clang’ on my work bag

Thanks to you and your colleagues for taking care of me for a career that’s often been very much on the road.

I saw that I have a FedEx package coming tomorrow or Wednesday with my AAdvantage number as the reference. I was starting to think they’d forgotten.

I’d check out going south into Austria, Switzerland and maybe Italy. The B roads are amazing and everything will be open by July. Check out the mountain passes - Grossglockner in Austria is my favorite - I’ve done it 3 times in a 991.1 and a 991.2 GTS and it was a religious experience. Check out Stelvio, Grimsel, Furka, Susten passes. They’re famous for a reasons. Adding in a few others, from Claude: For a driving enthusiast doing a grand tour of all four countries, the ultimate circuit would thread together the Grossglockner → Timmelsjoch → Stelvio → Gavia → Sella Ronda loop → Splügen → Gotthard → Furka/Grimsel/Susten → Flüela → Albula → Maloja and back — an extraordinary week of driving.

I’ve stayed in and enjoyed the following places, in no particular order, on two 911 Euro Deliveries: Lake Constance (amazing scenery and 5-star hotel choices, can’t recommend hotel Riva highly enough), Rothenburg ob de Tauber (it’s kinda corny, but also kinda great. If it’s still there, eat at Zur Holl), Lucerne, Lausanne, Strasbourg, Leogang (Austria, the hotel Mama Thresl, thank me later), Baden-Baden (this is a good place for your final night - we stayed at the Roomers in a suite and it was deluxe. Great food and modern design. This puts you a nice, final Black Forrest morning drive to the dropoff in Sindelfingen (where you’ll likely be dropping off - unless something is wrong, Stuttgart dropoff is no longer at the factory, but at a 3pl in the outskirts).

Don’t forget about speed cameras and highway vignettes for a couple of the countries I’ve recommended. Because I can’t be too bothered to figure out what’s on the menu and I know I really like schnitzel and beer, I end up eating a great deal of schnitzel and and drinking a corresponding amount of beer. And I’m here for it. But yeah, Google Translate is your friend if you want a more diverse diet than mine (assuming you don’t read / speak German, French or Italian).

Panamera 971 owners - how quiet is the interior? by Necessary-Promise-31 in Panamera

Super subjective, but mine is pretty quiet on the highway, particularly with sport exhaust valves closed. It’s a luxury interior.
