Lit the blue touch paper and am amazed the 911 lot have not exploded like fireworks....

928 GTS - I have a 'huge one' (engine)
Biggest in the Porsche world (without enhancement.....until the Carrera GT came along)

Just got a Top Gear book for a mate for Christmas. It's called Mid life crisis. The 911, 914 & 924 are in there but not the 944 :lol:

We're pretty immune to this stereotype. It was obviously started by some jealous loser who should have tried harder at school and got a decent job so they could afford a 911. :wink:

How's that for lighting the blue touch paper. :thumbup:

Of course 928s cost more than 911s. Shame they are not worth more now :-)

It obviously was not started by a transaxle owner either.
I wonder if the garage in the advert actually made any sales after coming out with that statement.

Live and breathe the marque,
Stephen
