Such a great looking car.
A silver porscha is rare?

Other than that :neat: car obvi
The actual shade of silver, which I think is the same as Waxer's. I just personally can't get enough of blue interiors. I grew up with blue interiors in both my mom and dad's vehicles.

It's not my thing, matter of fact a lot of Lincolns I grew up with had em, but I just couldn't do the blue. But I can't hate on people for color choices that's :wrong:

If it really is GT Silver it is the same as mine, but I don't think it is officially GT Silver since he has another name for it.

Not sure about the blue interior, especially with the top down.

Talking about a silver Porsche being a super rare color is :lolol: Almost every one I see is silver.

I personally think the bloo interior is :neat: though, I’d take that car if it had a :manuel:

It's not really rare, except possibly on some models. It's a heritage thing, at least on 911s, and it's also the best color for the 911. I'm not biased or anything. :D

They do look "right" in silver for sure... but calling it rare is comical. I think if I ever got a 911, I'd go for red. They've also had some unique colors over the years that would be :neat: depending on model.

Just wrap one.

Guards red has to be the most common color with black not far behind. Nearly every one on BAT is either guards red or black.

I never see 997 or newer in red around here, black and silver mostly. It does seem like all of the 964/993 cars on BaT are red or black. :iono: can't really go :wrong: with such a timeless shape/design.

Shame it's all red, though, and not the red lower/black upper I prefer.

Love the red roof, :doe:
:neat: car, not terribly expensive either.

Saw a red 991 GTS on the highway yesterday. Yep. Guards red is what I’d do.

When I was looking, all the GTS' around were Guards, or Carmine red. 2 silver, a bunch of black and 1 Miami blue.

Guards is better than Carmine though, at least to me.

You have to shower right before and put on freshly laundered, lint free, all white clothing, take off your shoes before you get in.

How many more squeaks and rattle per gallon do they get over the R56?

After going from the glc to the mini I was reminded what fun to drive means and why I got the mini to begin with.

A car that is designed to be fun from the ground up is quite special. Vs a forgettable pod.

Big reason why I recently fell in love with the ND2 MX-5.

Fun still has a place in my heart.
Yea at the end of the day driving a pod gets old and you start to question what the point of say a 50k one vs a 5k one is when most don’t have a soul. Driving something small and nimble that is designed to bring you joy can be a chore but it is also absolute fun, in a big dull world
