Can we split the Porsche forum?

[BertBert]

Into one for people who want to go on and on and on about unreliable Porsche engines without letting anyone else get a word in edgeways until thay start foaming at the mouth and falling over backwards...

and another for those who dont?

Cheers
Bert

So... watercooled/aircooled?!

[36270k]

If you want a reliable water-cooled porsche, get a 924.

[blade7]

Those that want to know what their car is worth and those that want to drive their car.

[Scelto]

And one for the never-ending PDK/Tip vs. Manual debates as well please.

[0 to 60]

... and one for "Proper Porsche"

[NickUSA]

Owners / Tyre Kickers

...... Just kidding

Air-cooled/water-cooled/front-engined

[tony russell]

911 variants/ other

[nsm3]

911uk have this and it is nowhere near as immediate or conversational - that is what makes PH fun (sometimes!).

[BertBert]

I was thinking more along the lines of:

"Dull Doomsayers"
and
"Energised Enthusiasts"

I'm with you on this-split it up & you lose the banter. Plus any confirmed airhead like myself must still have an avid interest in the modern company, no? Even if it's just the gt/turbo models?

I mean I love my aircooled but still lust after spyders, gt3's etc then there's all the modern sports racing etc etc.

Leave it as it is I say

The most reasonable split I see would be into 911s, 944/928s and Boxsters/Caymans as they are all three different layouts.

That's a good starting point. And yet GT2/3 owners will ask why there isn't a section for them like there is for the M3 CSL.

[Scelto]

How about one for people who get subtle irony and another for those who don't?




edit: maybe I should join the one for people who can never type a legible post on their first attempt.....

Totally agree. It gets quite sleepy on there. I for one have a wider interest than just the specific model I drive so like the PH format.

+1
I find the separate model forums on 911uk can be a bit 'narrow' and on occasions, there is'nt much new being added at all.

PH's is far more broad in its reach; my only criticism is that, on occasions, some PH'rs can be too quick to criticise other posts & make slightly snide remarks, and this could put some people off posting even though they may have something meaningful to post.

IMO.

It used to be something like this. It wasn't as good.
