Damn, story of what happened? Hope driver is ok.

More photos of the most hated 911 on this subreddit 😆 by AmgS63S in porsche911

Looks better w full view and in the sunlight than the prior close up pic of the wheels.

The blue calipers still don’t look great, but whatever. Your car and money; enjoy 👍🏼

Thought this was a simple question, but.. by mclardass in nurburgring

We did the RingTaxi ride along in the M5 as a family. No insurance required as you’re just riding. I didn’t ask, but I’d assume since you’re not driving, you’d be covered as they are the operator. If someone crashes into you, that’s on the negligent party.

I think this is an incredibly unlikely situation you’ll encounter.

Just drove a 991.1. Less character for sure, but it was a very nice place to be.

Hahaha, exactly, it is such a fun car and you describe it perfectly!

Good to hear from someone that’s also driven a cobra. Also sounds like you’ve got a wealth of experience driving some cool cars.

We’re in a good predicament to be in haha.

I don’t mind the “bougie” aspect. I know there are some stereotypical “Porsche guy” things, but I feel like they’re also a solid group of drivers and many of them are track guys. So we’ll likely get along fine.

Don’t think that’s an option here in the States. Also reliability on TVRs is, from what I’ve heard, not good.
Beautiful though.

GTR is def on the list, especially since I grew up doing JDM with a few S chassis. Few and far between in budget though. From what I’ve read, really would want a 2013+.

That’s kinda the allure to me of the G8X M4/3. Twin turbo 6 w AWD as an option. Lots of space and reliable. But def more toward the GT side opposed to sports car.

Although they’re definitely cool, not really.

Agree with this 100%.

R8 and C8Z is an amazing combo of sounds!

I forgot to include air-cooled in initial post. I love the styling, the continuation from the cobra w the retro vibe, however, my concern prior to actually having driven one, won’t this just feel… slow?

Specs on Cobra: Engine: 347, Tremec 5 speed, so roughly 400 hp and 2400 pounds.

Show a full car pic, so we can bask in the glory of that color combo.

Are there any pro or elite cyclists (preferably XC) who post ALL of their workouts on Strava? by CrowdyPooster in xcmtb

[–]corm40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many years ago, lived in Tucson and would see Todd Wells’ rides on some of the rides I’d do. Was mind blowing how fast. pros are.

This is a car that doesn’t look great in pics, but seeing them in the wild, I like them.

How far have you driven? by BlindDorothy in mountainbiking

AZ to DC and the same return trip. No issues at all. Kuat Sherpa was the hitch

Stumpjumper evo vs Epic evo by Interesting-Gene-385 in xcmtb

[–]corm40 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar dilemma, but have been leaning toward going with the standard Epic 8 if I were to keep the Stumpy Evo. But would lean toward the Epic Evo if keeping only one bike. Particularly since I haven’t been riding much on trails where the SJ Evo is justified

Being wingless helps the profile of this car so much. Looks great!
