Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

This.

Affected exhaust notes are for tarts.

A 911 sounds at its best when the induction is barking and blaring pure mechanical noise and you can't even hear the exhaust, like machine-gunning rivets at a dustbin lid.

Fit ITBs and drive everywhere above 6krpm.

Engine note you say?

*Balls of steel*

Just get a tubi style and forget these bitches

Also something about Mark Webber, a 919, and closed roads in central London from 06:00 tomorrow?

Going to head to parliament square for 05:00 like a reet keano with my fur lined anorak.

Video that sucka.

The red bull pitstop?

Rolling roadblock supposedly and road legal speeds. Go pro and chase him?

Not all exhausts should be smooth or refined...the last 40 secs are particularly alluring.

911 looks great Dammit!

Love it!

Nobu?

Now THAT is supercool

Yeah man, just getting used to driving here. Meant to be doing the 300+ miles to big Sur tomorrow. Not sure if I'll take the bug or just hop in a rental with the rest of the squad.

This thing is such a laugh to drive and a fair bit quicker than I was expecting. It's mean to have a 1600 dual port engine. Easily keeps up with modern traffic.

This from the porsche anorak...

Just dropped it off for all remedial work to be done

Saw this beast parked up on Broughton Road in Fulham.

Looks like a Sierra

Looks good on those wheels

Nice one!! Good on you for living out those dreams.

Precision Porsche just called me, lower control arms, shocks and springs all round needed. Plus the other stuff, £4,000 is looking likely, indeed- optimistic.

They all need lower arms. It's a service cost, so you don't even have to tell Mrs Dammit it's been done. You can just change the bushes, but I don't think it saves much.

welcome to the world of Porsche ownership!

@diable - you now know where to drop off the pink hairdresser's accessories!!
