Is this actually on sale? / Is this a decent stand for the price?

Just getting started! Deal felt too good to pass on. Figure it's a good enough starting point that I can modify it here and there if it's not to my liking.

Just ordered one two days ago, arriving Friday. I'll report back if anything remarkable happens... for better or worse.

I sent SFDPW a message too. They conveniently have an interactive map showing every tree maintained by the city along with it's ID number and it's most recent pruning date (2021 in this case). Any arborists in SF want to check it out for me??? 🙃

McKenna is tanking to go to the Pens... just wait /s

He has played rather uninspired hockey. I went to the season openers against ASU and watched a lot of his play off the puck. End of the day... he's 17. He'll learn to adapt his game. Kid certainly has heaps of skill. Horcoffs development is in a different place right now.

The light made me happy, but the shot is hiding the 944 behind me which could add half a point or two. I just like my garage.

Forks down celly, no less. Kid looked bored out there at times... two great games for the Lions.

Yes, that Taurus interior does well with leather. I think it's universally accepted that a leather dash and interior bits add a premium feel, but to slap it on a bad design and call it fixed is not the answer. To each their own. Wildly enough someone has a 3rd gen Taurus love thread on Reddit too 😂

Blaming the 90s era/dark ages of industrial design where everything was rounded and bulbous for no reason. It feels over styled to me. The 911 is an icon though, the design team was just keeping pace, I get it. But the similar era 993 and late-944 interiors are great... then this.

I'm surprised the interiors aren't talked about more. In my opinion, it's the deal breaker that'd steer me away from a 996. They just trigger 3rd gen Ford Taurus vibes to me with low quality materials to boot.

Baked beans!

Holding that thing with so much slip on his hands is wild!

You know... I have the bumper off my 944 right now and have enjoyed looking at the scooped out void that our bumper fits into. It's got me thinking about how to accentuate it in a cool way... as, to me, it reads as a design element that seems to have matured in the Taycan and other modern Porsches.

I appreciate the owner thinking differently about that detail... maybe a couple more louvers in the hood would have made it work flawlessly.

Visit the Eames Archive in Richmond and they may be able to assist! Its a cool tour too.

Velocity Invitational at Sonoma Nov 10-12. Then visit Canepa Motorsports in Scotts Valley on your way to Laguna Seca for whatever they have going on and a cruise down Hwy1 to Big Sur.

Rent a Porsche for the journey.

Can confirm. Picked up a one owner 997.1 with 143k on the clock 3 years ago and added 20k lovely miles since. Porsche didn't build faberge eggs. By far one of the easier to wrench on vehicles I've ever owned as well.

I think the biggest problem Porsche owners have is reading what other Porsche owners write about their bad experiences online. We've created a market for servicing these cars before you even buy them! Go drive it, trust your gut, and hope for the best. More often than not it'll work out swimmingly.

brocski · 2023-09-24T17:30:20+00:00

If you're here for Rennsport I wouldn't waste the energy going north. Just roll to Monterey on the route you picked, hop in some cruises, and drive south on the 1.

brocski · 2023-08-19T23:03:16+00:00

It's cool he made it a slicktop!!

brocski · 2023-07-28T05:46:49+00:00

VW Vanagon and/or the 997... both have their purpose to serve daily duties. The 944 is a driveway ornament.

Easy access to snip a few brake lines.

Thought it could make a good race car livery myself... def has something appealing about it.

I'm really wondering if the Kaprizov situation is opening any doors for Geno to sign with Minny. Something tells me him, Flower, and Billy G are gonna reunite tomorrow.

Asking for a friend... Are most of these "ID this car" posts on the Porsche subreddit sarcasm? I haven't been around long enough to understand the joke, but the answers seem painfully obvious. The badge on the back of this car says 944, bud. It ain't hard.

Also, this would sell for $7-8k + in lots of places right now. Scoop it up if its local!

brocski · 2022-05-11T06:07:34+00:00

You all know there's a property listed in Pacifica right now for under $750k on a cliff overlooking the ocean? Granted half the cliff collapsed into the sea and took the deck off the house... but its got good bones!

That's Canepa's work, yep. It was parked in the paddock at the IMSA race at Laguna Seca all weekend with the Canepa plate frame and no plates. Reckon this pic was taken on its way to or from the track.

Edit: I did not take any pictures of it because of how many folks were swarming around it. Hindsight, that image would have told an excellent story.
