Current state of the economy made think of this post driving home yesterday so I dug it up. 430 prices today? Wow.
Cool car, but I've found that AWD cars generally are not as playful and engaging to drive as RWD. That's the only reason I wouldn't buy one, as...
Somewhere above Chalk and Cheese was posted. This could not be more accurate. One car is an engineering tour de force the demands respect....
Good for you if you can treat both cars as civics. Some of us cannot or are unwilling.
Hated driving my 360 in the rain; that's what GTRs are for.
Both in the rain?
snaps to 360trev for some needed sanity to this thread. A GT-R as a daily driver and Fcar for an occasion.
Thanks for the snaps tubor. I do think that everyone arguing magazine specs is missing the point. It's all about the entire ownership...
997 TT, 997 GT3/RS, F430, Scud, Z06, ZR1, etc. . . and now the GTR. All lethal cars near the top of sportscardom. No car is perfect, and each...
PFB, I think it may not take 6 mos.
In my experience the 360's brakes: - are less 'grabby' than bmws and the modern porsches I've owned (the aircooled cars require a lot of pedal...
Beautiful cars! Too bad they aren't particularly fun/inspiring to drive.
Choice 2. GT3 for track use and sucking Fcars up it tailpipes, and the CS for pimpin. Better yet, save the money and get a 99 Modena 6 sp; great...
LOL!
I've had 3 996's (C2, C4S, GT3) and 2 997's (997 GT3 and 997S), and in an earlier thread stated that my 360 never gave that feeling of grip my...
Interesting comment on grip. I have very limited exposure to the F430 but owned a 360. Having had series of Porsches including a 997 Carrera S...
You run R comps on the street?
Definitely agreed. I learned early on after one scary year, that it's more important (at least for me) to first eradicate debt and get a healthy...
"My point is the guy that Gordon Gekko describes . . . "guys making $750K (I have adjusted for inflation) a year and flying first class." (Assume...
PFB, I'm certainly not trying to be a contrarian, just wanting a bit more depth of explanation. For me, I *hope* 430s nosedive as you've...
