Spring Fever!!!!!!

[deedubb]

I almost drowned in my own spit, I was drooling so hard.

Nice Porsche!

LOL. I should ship it down to you over the winter Adam. It's no use to me here

Sweet Ride. If that's the cure, I don't mind having that illness. Unfortunately, our prescription plans don't seem to share the same level of coverage.

My Vette is the base coupe, LS3 430Hp, 6 speed auto. Back when I had my 02 Camaro SS, it was originally a C5 Z06 that turned me on to getting a Vette. That was an awesome ride in it's day. But that Porsche, what model is it? It looks awesome just standing still. Knock, knock...Hello summer...are you there?

Nice. Time for a ZR1 Dave
Mine is a 2008 911 Turbo.

Do you remember seeing his HT setup? You need a bigger bucket for your drool.

Yes, I remember. All too well. I was on an IV for three days after he posted that thread.

I'd treat her right!

Heh, heh. I noticed those bigass side intakes. I wasn't sure if Porsche was still using the 911 designation or went to a 930, 935 or some other such number for the newer models. It doesn't get much better than a 911 Turbo, though, does it?

Alas, no ZR1 for me. I'm lucky enough to be one of the few remaining people in Windsor that's still working. I'm just going to tighten the belt and try to ride out the economic storm.

They're all 911s, but have different numbers to differentiate the different model years (just like the C6, C5, C4 etc with Corvettes). Current 911s are the 997 body style, 996 before that, 993 before that, etc. Most people would refer to mine as a 997 Turbo.

BTW, is that a Phaeton in the background?

Whoops, missed that question. It's an Audi S4, my wintermobile.

Ah, sorry. It's hard for me to tell with the black paint. I was just guessing based on the style of wheel and the appearance of great size. I guess most cars look larger when sitting next to a 911.

A 911 will make things appear larger?

LOL, trust me Dave we have had more than our share of bad weather. It is about time things lightened up a bit. Sooner or later you will have better weather as well.

Cheers,

Phil

It would seem later rather than sooner.

Either way it will happen sooner or later. Heck, it is 23 degrees here this morning. However, it is supposed to be in the 60's by the end of the week. Gosh that sounds good right about now.

Cheers,

To hell with it. It's cold enough to freeze my nuts off today, but we had a lot of rain last week, no salt on the road since, and it's sunny & dry today. I drove my summer car to work today. It's only the second time it has been out since November. As far as I'm concerned, it's now Spring

Going through that I don't blame you. The weather here has been a roller coaster ride as well. Sunny today, but that wind would cut you in half. OK, not literally but you get the idea. Here is a wish for more sunny weather coming your way.

Phil

I had the Vette out yesterday, too. You're right. To hell with winter...it's spring now. I just wish spring weren't so bitter cold.

Amen there bro. BTW, do you know where Corvettes are actually built? Lets just say, I live about an hour and a half from there. Just curious if you knew or not. No big deal really. I will give you a hint-BG.

Yup, I've been through there, saw the plant from the highway, spent a little time in Goodletsville, hit up that little 1/8th mile dragstrip up in the hills around there and got hauled down by a Trooper just south of Nashville. Good times, good times...

Yeah, sounds like good times. Ever been to any other places in Western Kentucky? Just curious. Perhaps next time, you can drop by and say hello?
