993 Carrera S. Can't get 911s out of my head since the Le Mans Classic, and these ones in particular are calling me more lately than they have for a while. I wonder if it's finally time to move from Munich to Stuttgart?

I highly recommend an 'S'...though probably not in Arena Red. The purists wont agree, but its 98% as good a drive as the narrow bodied cars and just looks awesome.

'My' one is worth considerably more than I sold it for now I'd imagine. See profile pic <------

Hellcat Charger.

I'm a Challenger guy, always loved them despite their shortcomings, and miss the one I've just got rid of, but for some reason I find myself wanting the Charger Hellcat more than the Challenger. Very difficult to resist ordering one.

Yes I wouldn't want a modified one but I just want one in that colour combo.

Very nice! They really do look stunning, and I actually quite like the Arena Red myself too. Only driven narrow-bodied 993s before, so good to hear there's not much difference

A 993 was one of the few other cars I considered buying back in 2011 when I ended up with my CSL, but I'm beginning to think it's inevitable that I'll have a 911 in my life in the near future

Because they are not built to last, no rust proofing, dash boards held together with pritt stick.

I find that hard to belive americans are far more demanding where thing like that are concerned. If they fell apart there would be law suits up the arris. They demand big miles from their cars or 'trucks'

Engines seems to be more reliable too.

Anything to back up the no rust proofing statement?

All cars have anti corrosion warranties. Try not to be this idiotic.

Instead of buying a 335i touring I though it might be more fun to get a M5 and a e39 touring and combine them.

Bowler EXR-S. Always wanted one, no idea what i'd do with it...except maybe make lots of noise

Now that is a very sexy saloon! Pretty insane numbers straight from the factory I wonder how robust will it be and also maintenance costs.

Pesty said:

Oh hell yes.

dodge charger hellcat 204 mph 11 sec quarter mile.
Reportedly faster down the track than the Challenger Hellcat on street tires. Same 707 HP engine. 8 speed auto, 3.7 sec 0-60.

Dirt cheap, but I'd get the Mustang 777 with a proper gearbox.

Perfect car to hire for a road trip across USA. Need to make it happen at some point soon.
