Shark is my brother, that's his nickname to his friend's, of which you are not one..
Identify yourself instead of hiding in the dark like a wee boy.
Overpriced, seem to sell no bother and enjoying the fruits of just that.
The only turd here is you son with nothing informative to say, away and sit back on the naughty step
until I call you next.

I think this might be a Turbo. And if it wasn't originally, it almost certainly is now...

Another day on Surrey's roads and more Cayman GTS owners letting the side down. The only mitigation here is that the number plate is missing a GTS. Still ticks the knobber box however.

Still looks great though.

My biggest concern about leaving the spoiler raised when parked on the street would be that some jealous tt would try and yank the thing off.

That's what I aim to do, most of it tongue in cheek. I too are fed up with mindless
robots patting each others backs and agreeing with each other, how bloody boring.
Autonomous bullst with nil personality, like sheep.

Pleased I didn't buy a turbo now, qualifing as a good driver by your definition is possibly not what I would aspire to.

In future I will not let my kids into the car, never park at a golf course, and ensure I am endangering a least two people at all times whilst racing in the car, on the road showing off my big pe*is.....
Think you quoted the wrong person.

Red Devil is the guy who thinks he is the best driver in the world, anyone who doesn't agree with him is a muppet and anyone who doesn't own a turbo or tunes it like he says is a "st driver"

I reckon half of them either press the button without realising or don't even notice the spoiler is up constantly (whilst driving or parked).

Bit like fog light nobheads.

Not wanting to run with the herd , I have deliberately gone outside and raised both spoilers and even popped out the front windscreen on the 1934 Jowett

Raise the spoiler of rebellion.

Should not drink this much rum on a warm day...

Must confess, mild dyslexia did allow me to see the plate as "raise for you"

And has the owner made another conscious option choice by setting the door mirror to fold in. Do Porsche realise that we owners are being judged on all these options they throw at us........ should we call the door-mirror police ?

Very funny post. I must confess, I was a PSE in town kind of guy for the first few weeks of 996 ownership but am over it now.

Serious question - as I am unable to see what the spoiler is doing... Can someone tell me, is it going up and down like a jack in the box between 30-70mph or does it stabalise?

I'm just wondering whether in constantly moves on A/B road jaunts.

Cheers

Up at 75mph, and drops back down again at something like 40mph IIRC
981 goes up at 78 (indicated) and down at 50.

Does this count? AND I've got a non-Porsche private plate.




But to be fair, I know I'm a c0ck - this doesn't prove anything I didn't already know biggrin

I put mine up sometimes because I think it looks cool. Not sure why it would infuriate anyone... I mean, christ, there's a button right on the dash for it.
