PORSCHE and BMW POLL!!!
Just curious as to how many members on this board have or are planning to buy a porsche.....
Feel free to add your comments as to when/how you use either of your cars.....

PS...just to "CLARIFY" ...you dont have to own an M5, Z8, AND M3.....just EITHER of THEM  ...or an ALPINA!!

I had a 2000 996c2 sold it to get an 01 M5, traded it for an 02 M5 and now have a 03 996tt on order for sept/oct delivery. I just don't need the four doors, need more power, and miss the porsche's handling.

I guess I'm one of the fortunate ones. I own both an M5 and 996tt. It would be hard to let one go for the other, they are so completely different, yet both cars complement each other nicely.

thats your 996TT??? I used those pics to show the porsche dealers back home in my country to show those fools at the porsche dealer that the 996 aerokit isnt bad at all so they can start bringing them in instead of giving us a hard time looking for one. Nice car and nice pics dude

Harry...I am with you!....I was just thinking the same thing in the last couple of days. It would be "nice" to get my hands on a GT2. Also, my brother and I are looking into the possibility of buying a RUF R Turbo!!! (he's actually in germany right now...tooling around in a measly Brabus biturbo mercedes!........BASTARD!!!  )
I think once you get the performance infection.....you can't go back!!!! We must all move forward!!

(ps....my offer stands on the table...to get you a "special tour" to the best porsche tuners etc....)

Alfy, I would love to get to do the tour there! I will be heading out there on July 4th for about 3 weeks or so. I am trying to do at least a week in Germany. I'll call you tomorrow after I meet with your lawyer. Thanks again btw!
