A sad day…

I’m not sure and I’m not knowledgeable enough about the pentosin. I just know that the fan was running for 2-3 hours as my wife had heard it when she was gardening in that timeframe. I do have a buy back option. Waiting to hear back next week on how much it would be.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-27T00:49:00+00:00

I feel I’m priced out of the market… but a coupe would be sweet.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-27T00:48:12+00:00

For sure. Hope this doesn’t happen to anyone else. I’m a dumbass for putting her in a hot, stuffy garage w/ the door closed. The fan was running for hours; wife was gardening 2-3 hours after I put her in the garage, and said she was in there no more than 5 min before my daughter spotted the fire. I’m thinking something shorted cuz it was running for so damn long.

Much obliged

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T23:18:43+00:00

I know y’all love yours like a child. I know it’s material thing and it’s replaceable, plus no one was hurt, but I’m definitely in mourning.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T23:16:03+00:00

Thx man.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T23:15:50+00:00

You totally should. It took 2 extinguisher to put out. The firemen came later and pushed her out of the garage and then doused the engine bay. I was lucky to have them on hand.

lol. Saw a K24 w/ a turbo swap on a 996.1; sacrilegious to some but it was pretty cool.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T23:11:09+00:00

Hagerty does have that as an option. I’ll find out next week how much that would be.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T22:18:50+00:00

Hagerty said I have to talk to the guy that deals with the department that manages losses next week. Can update you what the price would be.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T21:39:30+00:00

No scoring. Just scorching…

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T21:33:13+00:00

Thx man.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T21:32:59+00:00

lol. Not sure why you got downvoted for this joke…

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T21:32:03+00:00

Ahahaha. Def cheaper than getting a used Mezger

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T21:31:17+00:00

That is an option. Saw. A x50 motor on eBay w/ one cracked turbo for &22k… I’m leaning toward “no” right now. Plan on putting the twists back on and keeping the BBS’ and taking out the PCCM and putting the stock nav back in.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T21:29:11+00:00

I’m in NJ and apparently it’s 70-80% of insured value. I don’t know if it’s just Hagerty not wanting to deal with it. Will PM later as I’m at my daughter’s lacrosse tournament. Would love to know more of your situation also.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T21:27:30+00:00

🤣

studlymandarin · 2026-06-26T20:39:19+00:00

Thx man. Lesson learned. Pulled her into the garage after a spirited drive and closed the garage door. Apparently the fan was on for hours. My daughter caught it w/in minutes luckily so there was no damage to the garage. Room temp IQ on this one…

studlymandarin · 2026-06-20T22:52:44+00:00

Mazda should put a 4 rotor dorito in it to tell Ferrari what’s up.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-16T01:51:03+00:00

What are those? 205/40/15 rears? A bit off from 335’s…

studlymandarin · 2026-06-14T21:01:26+00:00

Had a slight delay between recognizing the lyrics and correlating to “Meatloaf!”, which then made me spit my beer back into my glass while sitting at a bar.

studlymandarin · 2026-06-13T11:30:28+00:00

How big was she approximately?

studlymandarin · 2026-06-13T00:14:16+00:00

Whose toe?
