I do have one actually.
The story and pic's are in my ask away thread.

You're right....he doesn't hate them all, but he's usually griping on how they all look the same or how they're just glorified VW beetles etc, etc. when he has the opportunity.....I think it's funny, actually  :zoinks:

I wants one, too. /goes to read your ask away thread

Wasn't there an episode where he is driving a 911 with a huge grin on his face, shouting how brutal the car is? How it will happily kill you? have to look it up.

They are remarkable machines. Nothing else quite like them.
Been hooked on them since driving a 993 cabriolet my dad once had.

Pretty good deals on used 996's & 997's.

Cars cost a lot less in the US. A Jag like mine is relatively cheap there.

They cost even more in Finland, though.
