    It's mine. It's an inside joke over at Jalopnik.

    During the Bullrun, Davey (from Jalopnik) spent some time interviewing Peter, the owner of the GT3RS, about his car and Porsche. Peter speaks with a thick German accent and is very "Pro-Porsche". Several times during the interview he made reference to the "Fine German Precision" of Porsche cars, engines, manufacturing, design, engineering, testing, racing, blah blah blah... it was all "Fine German Pecision".

    For 2 days after the Bullrun, me, Davey, Vinny (from the duPont Registry), Rory (from MTV) and Bret (from La Carrera Panamericana) walked around LA doing Peter impresonations:

    At lunch: "Is zis hamburger, vich vas invented in Hamburg, the great German city, ground in a precision German grinder?"

    Checking out of the Beverly Hilton: "I vill need to verify my charges since you are not using German computers. Ze precision of your accounting is not acceptable to me."

    At the drug store (Vinny needed some Advil): "I do not understand all of zese American medicines. Porsche is working on a cure for aids, you know? Only their precision scientists can be trusted vit such a task!"

    At CEC Wheels (Claus was less amused with our accents): "Herr Claus, ve vould like to sank you for your continued efforts importing and marketing the most precise of German veels and tuning products."

    It was heinously funny at the time...

    If you vill excuse me, I must now shower. For soon, it vill be time to vatch ze ultimate German driver, Herr Schumacher, defeat ze Sangria svilling Spaniard Alonso at ze Shanghai Grand Prix! I must get ready so zat my fine German transporter can take me to ze track!
