Re: Porsche guys?

I've not said peep on this topic yet, but here's my FIM 0.02.

Our 2- and 4-year olds fit beautifully in the 911 with their booster seats.
 OK for short trips, but, honestly, it is a car for one or two and a nice
winding B-road.

I love Porsches.  I am an Audi/VW dealer and we have NO Porsche network in
the country, so I'm not aiding the competition by supportint the marque.  I
would give my left nut to also have a P-car franchise if it were only
finacially viable here in Finland.  The last official importer/dealer sold
2-5 new cars per year - to me that is not business.

I love my 911.  It's an 89 Carrera 3.2 (last year), so I have to get a 73
2.4S and a recent 993 (prefer Carrera S no 4S for me - I've got quattros
for that) to fulfill my 911 needs.  Then, I'd probably get something
else...

Audis are great.  I drive them daily in many different guises, and for the
most part, they are all great.  Porsches get my pulse up (so does my UrQ)
just sitting still in the garage.
