    Pentium:

    Strangely as it may seem to you given what happens in Romania I am working hard for my money; they don't fall from the sky. I am not daddy's boy (quite the opposite, I bought them a house and cars) and I also have NO connection with political parties or our country's local  economics. Owning both a 911 and a Scuderia would mean stretching my resources too thin and I would perceive it anyway as a waste... which I don't like... (which by the way was the case for a while until I sold the 911). Also that experience made me feel like cheating on my girlfriend all the time Smiley When using the 911 I was thinking at Scuderia and the other way around. Well... I guess I rather have one good girl than many... different ones Smiley

    PS Why insignificant town? Come on! Also the price you mention is way too low for a 2008 brand new one. Perhaps without any option. Just to give you an idea, if I remember correctly, only the painted stripes (the livery) was 10.000 euros....

     

     What's wrong with being daddy's boy ? :) I presume most of the members of this forum are (at least the ones with the big toys :)). You are an exception. Generally speaking, the vast majority of supercar owners (who are generally between 21-35 years old) are daddy's boys, if you know what I mean. Because it is almost imposible, no matter how brilliant he is, for a regular young person to develop from scratch this hugely profitable business, that works so well that in just a few years he's a millionaire and can afford these kind of cars. Sure, there are exceptions, but you need to be nothing short of a genius in order to achieve that. That said, if I'm not too curious, what kind of business do you run, exactly ? Surely you must be a computer wizz-kid, who runs an antivirus company or something, am I mistaking ? :)

    I meant galati is an insignifiant town compared to bucharest...:) 

    Regarding the scuderia, the resale price for a 2008 model is around 130000 without taxes (stripe included), just check mobile.de.

    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

    I meant what I paid for it at the end of 2007 (230.000euros... here I said it).

    And no, you don't need to be a genius these days. You just need to really focus your whole universe on achieving a goal. Luck could act as a boost, speeding things up but in the end I came to believe that if you really want something you will achieve it one day. I made my first million between 25 and 29 but I did reinvest all of it. Didn't spent money on cars or clubs and girls back than. I worked all day, no vacation for six years straight, at least 80 hours a week. The problem with today's people IMHO is lack of commitment more than anything.

    And there is a problem with being daddy's boy IF you find comfort in that position. About the rennteamers, at least the ones I had the pleasure to talk with, gave me the impression that they all value work and they don't like to throw money out of the window like in our beloved country where stealing is the main business.

    Anyway, I wrote all the above just because you pissed me off saying "it's impossible" like many other young people before you. Really? Well that's my end of transmission message to you: IT IS POSSIBLE! JUST FOCUS ON THE GOAL!

    PS Yes, I work in the software industry.

    First of all, I said "it's almost impossible", which is not the same thing with "it's impossible". So you're pissed off because I called you a genius ? :) Many people work just as hard as you do but very few actually succed in becoming millionaires. So that means that working hard is just a part of the equation. You need to have the brains too. 

    "And there is a problem with being daddy's boy IF you find comfort in that position. "

    Couldn't agree more Smiley And even more so if you're daddy is a THIEF (which is the case with most rich boys in romania- see Casuneanu etc)

    PS software industry is BIG, and anyway that part I kind of figured already :D so, can you be a bit more specific, please ?

    As far as I know: soft top and this is the new mechanism which allows a flatter rear part (vs. the slightly blown up rear part in the current 997 Cab). We'll see early 2011. 

    Yes, thanks a lot for the photos !

    I like the new rear roof contour.  Roof contour of current model cabs does not flow well, and  I have always preferred the coupe's cleaner design.  This new line, assuming it is adopted for the new model, will be a MAJOR design improvement, IMHO...


    Re: Porsche 991 GT3 to include GT1 motorsport engine... Thread Closed

    Also,note to Porsche:  Please, please put an end to the tacky add-on rear fender air scoop on future turbos.  I know the one in the pic is a taped disguise, but it still reminds me of how much I dislike the existing one.

    reginos:

    Does anyone think it's a camouflaged folding hardtop?

     I think it could well be... even if I am not happy about it as the canvas roof look so much nicer for a cab.

    One can now see hard lines under the canvas + the back seems to be very high, looking like it can hold a folded roof
