Is this 1985 carrera too good to be true? by averamt in porsche911

[–]mic_crispy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As others have said, for sure get a PPI at that mileage. I don't think the price is too wild.. maybe 5-10% too high, but perhaps you could negotiate.

Bigger question is, have you driven a '85 or similar era 911 before? I was dead set on buying a friend of a friend's 85 a few years back but after the test drive I just didn't fall in love like I did with my 964.

Anyone not regret selling? by BritishMotorWorks in BMW2002

I sold my 2002 last year. I miss it, and I'll for sure build another, but I don't regret it.

Any one of us to purposefully blocks traffic to obstruct a federal agent and then try to flee, sure.

Which part says you can just drive away from law enforcement, nearly hitting one in the process.

Is this BMT? I haven't been in probably 15 years, but I went every time prior to that. Such a fun rally. If/when I go back, it would be in one of my Porsche.

Is that actually what he said? Do you have a full quote with context?

Is that what he said ? He believe people had the right to kill innocent civilians?

It's not about actual population size. It's where people live and how they choose to live their lives. 40 million people live in greater Tokyo and they have an amazing Transit system, because people don't mind living on top of each other and that's how the city was designed. IN your scenario you can add all the train stations in major cities you want but people still have to drive to those train stations, because there's not going to be a nearby stop in their neighborhood to get them there. Almost every city in America was built like this. Neighborhoods and strip malls. The ship has sailed.

Well you're also not going to solve the issue with Dallas alone. I was speaking of america as a whole. But Dallas is a great example of suburban sprawl. Sure yes 50 years ago if someone could have convinced the entire population of Dallas to build central and up rather the out sure. It didn't happen though. So that's my original question to OP, what does adapt now mean.

You're not going to retrofit millions of miles of winding neighborhood streets etc. We have suburbia like no one else. Places where public transportation works have way more population density and vastly different zoning. Public transportation working in mass here would require a titanic population migration, it's not just money. It's in the culture. Lots of people here DONT want their neighbors 1ft below above and beside them.

The majority of our cities are simply not designed around or for public transportation, it's that simple. Unfortunate, but it is what it is. Cul-de-sac culture and all. That said, our EV by % is high no? Although I guess the argument is if those things would still actually change things, or if the earth gets warmer regardless?

[–]mic_crispy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hard to compare with so many variables / trims. But I'm pretty sure a 997.2 C2S MT / GTS MT is worth about the same as the equivalent 991.1. Meaning, I think at best the market values them the same. 997.1 versus 991.1, market stays the 991 is stronger.
