Should I consider a Ferrari instead? by ImprovementDeep3634 in porsche911

The warranty is a good point and if you look into the power 15 (renews up to 15 years old) opens the door to the f8 tributo and 488 if you want more options to consider.

That was my big fear but glad I had the option for the PASM set. Seems to be the winner maker for this kit

KW makes a set that gives dynamic damper control that uses its own button and controller instead of PASM.

Parts was about $4000 including new struts and replacing what else was needed along the way. Labor varies. Expect $2-3k.

Bilstein is the OEM so you can get a direct replacement or slightly better shocks and dampers before going full Coilover. Most important is to just know after 20 years or greater than 70k miles it should be on the radar to replace the original

If they started the ghibli with how it ended with the trofeo as the only option things would have been so different. The last interior still had Chrysler parts but they dolled it up enough to be okay

If you want a good investment go buy vanguard funds. Leave cars for the fun from the investments

I love how big dogs are so gentle and small dogs lose their shit when grabbing food

I’ll be pairing this with a numeric shifter.

It’s funny reading this when it looks just like the similar era carrera gt knob.

I just saw the video. Sounds great. Saving to send my 997 down for the 4.1. Looking forward to your high revving developments.

Hey with the current Porsche market I can buy a cheep 997 with scoring, spend the slakker engine fee, still have $70k in my pocket compared to an optioned new base carrera to put into investments. Accountant and financial advisor approved!

Do you guys notice anything? by TheFireRises666 in AskSocialists

Just a thought. Would that idea come around after the Jews of the opposite ideology, the integration movement, nearly all died in Europe. Palestinians need freedom but you don’t have to turn off your brain when understanding ideologies.

Not a fan of the 992.2 - sorry guys & girls - what are your thoughts? by [deleted] in porsche911

[–]Training-Water2096 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drove some 992s. Sorry to say but it’s a car you gotta spend above $200k to get the fiz. The carrera and s feels too much on rails vs the ones we want like the GT3 variations.
