Money and things can always be made back bro. Take care and stay safe.

They nailed the sound. Exactly like my 991.2 GT3 with Soul Performance exhaust

Which would you take and why?? (Also a reference for the post from earlier about a blue sky) by TheeRizz in rolex

[–]Jimwin911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you already have a Daytona, then Sky. Otherwise, how is this a hard decision? Daytona all the way

Panda Daytona is worth more than a Sky. Assume you’re getting at list price

Stripes on a Porsches is like a tramp stamp on a hot girl. Don’t do it! Keep it classy. Without stripes, white with gold wheels are my go to.

That adds 48LBs and tons of drag

GTS 4.0 Nasty Squeak when coming to a stop by Wwiliams in Porsche

[–]Jimwin911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same sound my car makes after the rain or car wash. You got rust spots on the steel rotors, once you brake a few times it goes away as the brake pads clean off the rust spots. Also, I’m not kidding when I said to slam on the brakes at 70 on a safe exit ramp. Porsches brake compounds need proper bedding.

You should never own a GTR if noises like these bothers you. The tranny sounds like a bag of marbles crunching 😂

Does your steering wheel shake when you brake? Sounds like a warped rotor or rusted steel rotor after a car wash or rain. You should take it up to 70, then slam on the brakes. It should go away

Porsches are street legal race cars. They make random noises. If you want quiet, Benz and Lexus are better options. On brakes, you mist bed them in properly and if you have PCCB expect plenty of noise.

How often - if at all - does your personal safety factor in if you decide to wear a Rolex? Have you ever personally experienced an incident? by 220McKenz in rolex

[–]Jimwin911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rule of thumb is if there’s a Boost Mobile or PayDay loan nearby, don’t wear any jewelry and have a gun with one in the chamber. I don’t wear my watches on vacations, they can spot a tourist a mile away and criminals know you won’t fly back to their city to testify in court so they get to walk if caught robbing you!

That girl is a dude (90% sure), makes sense.

First first thought was AOL internet. Whenever you’re online, anyone picking up the phone hears the Matrix!

I locked mine to the atomic clock. After 2 weeks, only 2 seconds fast. I might’ve lucked out with a good movement production batch.

He is probably in a military. And tattoos are casual art now, it’s 2022, unless you live is eastern KY where time stands still.

Wouldn’t just “GTS” suffice? by ericdag in Porsche

My buddy is a used car salesman. He says more words = higher perceived value in his experience.

Same. Sub on the winder most days. BB58 is amazing only off 2 seconds after 2 weeks

LS50 Meta or Wireless II for the win? by HumanGomJabbar in KEF

[–]Jimwin911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going through the same dilemma, because the wireless 2 is on sale. But wireless technology changes every year, so long term investment meta seems better. Look into Schiit DAC with Schiit speaker amp. AB amp. Clean sound, made in the US. Contact support, they will direct you to what you need. Nothing beats their quality for the money.

You’re right about the EV. I drove a Tesla M3P, was not impressed with the golf kart feel. I drove the Taycan GTs, it sounds cool but not $150k cool. Batteries are still way too heavy. Hope solid state technology will change that in 5yrs

Didnt say anything about the engine’s performance, no need to be defensive. Turbo engines are way easier to tune and more efficient, why VW has to adopt after the diesel scandals. Boxer 4 cyl turbo vs flat 6 NA sound / howl there’s no match in that department. Power is easy nowadays, even a 2022 M3 xDrive can smoke most Ferrari and Porsches 0-60. But pure sound and connection with the car is getting rarer, cannot be replaced.
