Any pics of the 911's? I drove a GT3RS the other day. Too bad it's just a little out of my price range.

I thought you wanted a 993?

The only have 2 pics of Porsches from the run are these.

I do. If you know of a 993 C2S in Vesuvio metallic for sale, let me know. In the last 3 years that I've been looking, I've only come across 2 for sale in NA.

Dad retired recently after 37 years with Exxon/Mobil.....got himself a 2007 Porsce 911 Carerra 4S Carbiolet in their dark metallic great. Beautiful car, but not as intriguing looking as those couple that you have there in the pics from your meet.

I'm much too white to call it a "whip"......but I finally bought my dream truck:

2008 Toyota Tundra Double Cab 5.7L V8 with the TRD Off Road Package. 381hp and 401 lbs-ft of torque.....it is like Viagra on 4 wheels. ;)

I'm trying to pawn off my current 2005 Sierra with the lift right now, which is proving to be very difficult. Since I just bought a 5th wheel trailer I've been looking at a brand new F250 or 350 with the 6.4L powerstroke. I've been wanting a diesel for a while now and they are selling trucks for next to nothing these days so nows the time I guess.

The truck now has 160 miles on it, and the computer is telling me 17.3mpg so far. That is with about 100 miles at 76mph going to hockey last night. It is rated to get 18 on the highway, and based on yesterday....I have no reason to doubt that as the mpg will get better as the engine breaks in.

I would stay away from the '08 6.4L. They get horrible mileage. You'd be better off going with a '07 down to a late '04 model Powerstroke.

The man is correct. One of my friends is an engineer at Borg Warner Turbo Systems, the designer of the sequential turbo's. While the power and emissions are fantastic, fuel mileage sucks. We took a F250 on a road trip from NC to Detroit and on the highway we averaged 15mpg, and that is on cruise control at around 75.

I love the power of the 6.4L, I test drove one and it was unreal. I just wish I could test tow one becuase that would be perfect. I'm going to test drive a 2007 Dodge with the 6.7L cummins later this week so I will probably make a decision after that, but the looks of that 08 superduty are just the tops.

THockey...I bow to you..that BMW of your's is just...just...beautiful. Question, you put any performance upgrades into it?

Custom ESS ECU

EvoSport Pullies

EvoSport Headers

ASR Intake

Eisenmann Titanium Exhuast

It puts a big pull on every single M5/M6 in the area.

I've heard nothing but good things about the ESS ECU. I hear the shifting is just butter.

EDIT: Grammar

ESS did an incredible job tuning it. I have the optional redline raise (to 8500) just to give a little extra pull. Its just about perfect.

I'll post a few vids if everyone wants to see/hear it in action.

Seinfeld's 993 TTS is on ebay again. I would definitely be interested in that car if there wasn't a $60k premium on it.

I LOVE that car. Sure isnt the cars fault it hasnt sold.

It's changed hands a few times and always for close to $200k. As much as I'd want it, I'm not sure I'd touch it for over $150k. I'd have just as much fun driving a GT3RS than looking at and cleaning (instead of driving) that Turbo S.
