Car thread - which one?

[Rockburner]

Surely this must be Mr P's holy grail car...

That's hilarious.... I'm seriously tempted.

I saw a t shirt like that a while ago which said
“My other car isn’t a Porsche”.
I quite liked that.

I’m for subtle, however, that orange gt3rs is the dogs bollocks. That’s the sort of bucket list car I’d want to own if I had the money. And tbh, fuck what anyone else thought. I’m not really into Ferarri’s or Lambo’s. But give me a nice Porsche or Ason Martin and that’ll be absolutely fine.

As for the shirt thing, I have a scooter, a Yamaha xmax, I also have a yamaha xmax branded hoodie, i’m 54 and i don’t give a shit. I know there’s many on here and previous places who bought bikes and then loads of same branded gear over the years. It’s common, and that polo shirt is very under the radar anyway.

Do it, and lots of pics etc (of the car, not the shirt).

If you do buy it.... you're aware that half of this forum will be living our best lives vicariously through you, and will demand masses of photos etc.

GT3 RS' should be green.

Some time ago, when it was time to replace her car, I thought that the missus might like a Porsche. Didn't even get as far as a test drive. Got her sat in the driver's seat at the dealer and she just said 'Nope, don't like'.

I was a bit disappointed.

My missus doesn't drive yet... but already knows what she wants: an Abarth 124 Spider. I have no problem with this whatsoever. (well - apart from she may end up with an auto. )

I suspect mine has had enough of 'sensible' already, so her next one may well not do 70mpg. However, being a woman, logic will play no part in it. Having declared the Porsche to feel 'lumpen', (which is hilarious from someone that had not one, but two Fronteras ) - she has had her head turned by that Ford Ranger MS RT we got as a loaner. Despite the Oz Racing wheels, we're in a whole new world of 'lumpen' there.

(She'd probably nick my car to drive herself but insist on being chauffeured around in the truck ).

I think the same and even Mrs Potter went "Oh fuck yeah, buy that" when she saw it, and she isn't even into cars.

Which? I've never seen an orange car I'd liked.

You'll need to grow your hair out at the back....

I'll probably have to dress like Orville Peck (including the mask )

Nah. Not my cup of tea. Sorry.

Really go all in and wear your Porsche shirt while driving a Ferrari.

That's probably the only way it won't look naff. Owning a car should be a blase thing, if you appear to care too much then others can see you stretched your finances and couldn't really afford it.

Very rare you see a flash car here. Folk aren't impressed by them.
Loads of brand new cars, but they're bought to enjoy, not to impress the Joneses

Same as the French!

Great colour - if you are 12, or a drug dealer, or an influencer
But 1 million miles from classy

but nearer my budget...
