I would add there is a reason the vet's "bash" the street 996 in terms of it being a track car. Liking the looks or not is has little to do with the true feel, sound, and smells of a Porsche!
You can obviously guess where I land on this topic, but maybe one day you could ride along with me in my car. It might change your perspective. Anything is possible!
Just thought I would repost what I said to rss996 since Jad seems to think that I told him that one ride in my car would show him how crappy his car is. I do not think what I wrote says that considering I offered a ride and used the word "might change your perspective", but I guess that depends upon the filter one applies to the words....
I guess this thread got too long to recall what I said or even to look up what was said, oh well!
Also note the other bold phrase, using a 996 as a track car. I have seen far more 996's go to the track and then retire because of issues particularly the early 996's. I do not mean retire at an event but that the owners retired the car from track events because it was not really trackable/reliable. But then that is just my opinion...wait, no that is not just my opinion, that is what I have experienced over the past 4 years...remember I am talking about tacking cars not driving them on the street.
Off to Laguna where I will be the only 993 on the track...well except for the other ones that will be joining me
P.S. WELL SAID CURT
