Re: What do you think??
Hey sdy284. I'm still undecided on that one. The pics of the carrera GT he posted is black or midnight blue. Not cobalt. That's impossible. (99% sure it's impossible)
We'll see. The 968 he posted raises even more questions. Anyway, as someone said, it's getting hilarious. So much fun in one thread, it's non expected...

Re: What do you think??
There's one photo of the CGT where the top of the left fender looks like it may be cobalt. I have a cobalt 996 and the color can look a little dark in certain lighting but I agree it's probably not that color. I love how the guy was all into taking & posting pictures once the car was back from the detailer but then suddenly he's too busy to take any pictures.

CGT Paint to sample is $15,500 not 20 as stated.
No way that is Cobalt Blue...Midnight maybe...most likely Black
I really liked the 10 year loan statement.
I hate people who try to scam others
i totally agree with you. I mean if this guy has so much money in the first place...why did he need a loan?
Re: What do you think??
his age should not be taken into consideration on judging truth from lies.
for example, im 18, you would have never gussed that would you?
however, back on topic, i'm going to call BS, that car really looks black, he may have altered the color saturation on the photos eve so slightly to make it appear blueish.
it certainly doesnt look like cobalt.
and ive never heard of a 10 year loan on a car.
hes a troll, or some insecure loser wanting attention. in either case, hes a bad liar.
for example, im 18, you would have never gussed that would you?

I would've guessed 16.Nevertheless, you claim to own a '05 GT3, '05 turbo cab S, and some others. I think it's time for some pics from you.
A simple search of Moogle's posts will show that he has posted many pics of his cars. I was also 18 when I bought my first new Porsche. Even though it was only a 914, a new 911 was only $2,500 more, well within my budget at the time.

I couldn't find them. Maybe you or Moogle could provide a link. In any event, I find it hard to believe any 18 year old kid could afford those types of cars, unless of course, he's a relative of the Rockefeller's or some kind of child star.

I have seen Moogle's photos of his cars and have no reason to question them. How he might be able to afford them is not really my business. Rennteam is a place where members treat each other with respect and we really don't have many pretenders here. There are a few, but not many. Rennteam members are mostly adult enthusiasts that actually do own the cars they discuss. Now let's try to steer this discussion back toward cars.

I think if Rennteam were to establish more credibility as an adult oriented sportscar forum, it would first need to weed out any person claiming to be something he/she is not.
With regards to pics, any person can take pics of any car and post them claiming to be the owner. This was precisely the topic of this thread regarding another website. If Rennteam does not take any "pretenders" to task, I'm afraid this will turn it into a haven for such "pretenders."
I would'nt want to be a part of that.

BUSTED! 
Re: What do you think??
LOL Trial by Internet !
I bought my first Porsche 914 1.7 in 73 when I was 19, since then I have accumulated whiskey boxes of Porsche service invoices from 8 other Porsche street cars and two race cars.
I suggest validating anyones Porsche ownership by aggregate weight of service reciepts!

you would be fighting an unfair battle against the cayenne owners
Re: What do you think??
You are probably right!
Apparently, nothing beats a Cayenne when it comes to generating service paperwork!
But then again, maybe Porsche designed it like that so
the weight of the service paperwork would match the vehicle size.
I was thinking about buying a Cayenne, but anecdotal internet information makes a Maserati Quattroporte look
like a more relaible choice!

Pretty simple for me to find his GT3 pics. In case you can not find them, here is the link:
http://www.rennteam.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=60963&page=1&fpart=1&vc=1
If you do further searches, you will find a picture of that same car in his garage with? The Boxster.

Re: What do you think??
I don't need to see them first of all. Second of all you may not know Moogle's history years before he become a "knowledgeable Rennteamer," when he used to post immature and meaningless post to tally up his monthly post count (on PPBB) which annoyed many people. Anyone can take pics and say its their GT3, its very simple (could be a family member for all we know). Nice to stick up for him though. I think he's a big enough man and can respond for him self (or 17, 18, 20, how knows???) Not responding to a flat out lie about your age (I remember him stating this vividly 3 years ago, a 17yr old with a 60k car and his post you don't forget). puts a dent in your creditability if you ask me. Moogle comes off as a bit of an intellectual, so he gets by, but as time has passed he become more arrogant and snobbish (I'm not the only one who has felt this) in more than enough post plus the fact he lied, so that's the reason for responding to this thread.

When I got my 914, it was the equivalent of a $60K car at the time. I just turned 18. By the time I was 22, I already owned 2 new Porsches and a new BMW plus a new Chevy that I bought at 17. There are some kids that are focused at 18. To say that because you are young and can not buy a Porsche is just plain ignorant. And in my case, I came from a middle class blue collar family. No trust funds, nothing. I got those cars from studying hard in school and getting a very very good and decent paying job when I was 17.
In fact there are several older Rennteam members who got their first Porsches at a very young age.
You have been here a short time with three negative posts against a long time member here in Rennteam. Do you not think we would not stand-up for a fellow Rennteam member? Hopefully those were the last and you can contribute something positive.

That sounds great and all, but that's not MY point. I've been lurking this site from time to time for YEARS, even before Moogle became a regular poster,since its great site for the latest car news. Just because I don't post doesn't mean I can't. As usual I lurk and read posts. I saw this thread on someone who seems to be dishonest on a Cobalt blue CGT. Moogle, comments and states he age as usual, but to ME its odd when he stated he age was 17 3 YEARS AGO. I didn't say anything about cars. Only reference I made about a car is when I said I can't forget a guy that age with 60k car and all HIS annoying posts that he racked up when his first hit the board scene. Never did I say someone that age can't have a car costing that much. There was another poster questioning his car ownership, not me. Is anyone getting on him(maybe not because he is a regualr posting member)? I don't know if he possess all those cars, nor do I really care. Maybe, maybe not. But when you lie it knocks your creditability. This thread was initially on dishonesty, so there's nothing wrong with pointing out. I understand you are defending your Rennteam buddy, but it is what it is. And can I guy speak for himself??
