    ^^^^^

    Gotta agree with you on that one. It is by far the best looking 991 IMO.

    I like the Turbo S. Possibly the best car you can buy in the 150s.

    Im also a sucker for HRE.

    Turbo is too techy for me, as awesome as it is.

    Neighbor down the road just got his Targa. I haven't had a car take me back like seeing that one did. It was like I was 13 again, and I'm a dyed in the wool Porsche man.

    I'd seriously consider one in a few years.

    New Lincoln Continental; a rip off of an Audi A8 when A8s still looked good or Flying Spur rip off?

    Flying Spur???? When is the last time Rolls-Royce came out with anything even remotely good-looking??

    They have been a preposterous over-the-top marque for decades!!! I think the last adequately elegant looking Rolls was what? A 1963 Silver Cloud. Understated elegance with an overstated Daddy Warbucks grill. There have been many Beetles with a fiberglass grill trying to replicate that look. I think they should have given out velvet wall hangings of Spanish bull fighters with each grill kit!!!

    EDIT: just looked. I guess the flying spur was sister marque Bentley. Ughh....talk about fugly! Looks like a Daimler with a weight problem. To their credit, Bentley HAD come out with some sweet 2 door coupes in the early 2000s.

    EDIT 2:
    THIS is the only good-looking Bentley/Rolls I've seen in quite some time!! Good luck actually seeing one on the road, though!!!

    One things for sure. The Wooderson ads for the new Continental are bound to be great.

    Rolls is owned by BMW, Bentley by VW. They have been completely separate for more than a decade.

    Try to keep up.

    The Flying Spur is a great looking car.

    The 2012+ Continental GT is a great looking car too. Much better looking car than the original Continental GT.


    Bentley is the epitome of refinement in a vehicle. Rolls cost more, but the build quality is not as good. I would take a Mulsanne over a Ghost every time.

    The Wraith is bad ass though. The perfect way to give the rest of the world a big middle finger.

    THE BENCHMARK IN ITS CLASS: THE PORSCHE RASENTRAKTOREN

    Atlanta. The newest member of the Porsche family is the hotly anticipated Rasentraktoren. This is the first time Porsche is introducing a sports lawn tractor, combining elements of the past, present, and future in one model. Our newest product is capable of mowing the grass at the Nurbürgring Nordschleife in under 37 minutes and 40 seconds, setting the new benchmark at the top of the premium riding lawn tractor market segment. It also makes a clear statement that Porsche will continue to promote radical riding lawn mowers in the future.

    Pfft, that ain't nothin more than a repainted Cub Cadet.

    Sweet April Fools joke though. If it were real, and I really cared to own a lawn tractor, that thing would be proudly parked next to the 911 and the wife's SUV would get the driveway treatment.

    Sorry. I didn't mean to suggest that you might be the kind of dentist who would not simply hire some variety of central american to tend to their ample and verdant lawnage

    No offense taken since I knew it wasn't intended.

    I don't know how it is by you but the Latin lawn crews around here are the real pros and are no savings. You want cheap lawn help, get a white teenager or a small black family with a business.

    Or there's always the amigo depot route but where's the consistency in that?

    What was this thread about again?
