    Get the Wingy GT3 with the manual gearbox...no more terrible gear ration and manly fast Smiley

    Better yet, take mine! The right color, the right mileage, the right amount of 'patina', the right mods, ... Think of how it will enrich your life Bluelines! SmileySmiley

    Haha,

    Sun has a wandering eye.  He's torn between:

    and:

    Both Scuds and 997 GT2's are among great cars of all time... How to choose?

    Thanks Guys,

    Joe is a fine philospher.  RC, I've already had a couple of Scuds, so maybe the GT2 is better, something new.  I'm awaiting DME/overrev on the Scud, it's only 7k miles but 5 owners so risky....  Did someone pound it without warmup?? The GT2 one owner, near perfect DME.

    But it's Glad season and My Love Seneca is resting next to her River of Gladness!

    The grieving is forever - Each day on the trail for Seneca.  But you turn it to love for everything around you.  The intensity of grief burns down over a year or two.

    Meanwhile, clearing the decks, the Touring goes Adios:

    Many comments above in the thread, but a superb mutation on the 911, what a gear set and shifterSmiley

    In Sun's view the pinnacle of the NA mutation cars [GT3RS-less], as GT2RS is the pinnacle of turbos - recall that nether Sun nor Sky see any value in a 992 of any sort, and are looking back for great 911s.  At least until BlueLines gets the gearset fixed in GT4sSmiley

    Sun is done with centre locks.  4,000 very high speed miles across the nation, and a flat would have been a royal hassle, the engine light was bad enough - which turned out to be a "faulty emissions module" -- FK that Sh.T. And as mentioned in the write up, the Wild Wild West is turbo Country when you're on the back country 2 lane: 100-160 mph repetively.
