yummy!!!!!!!

[Lorax]

Holy crap. Pity it's not big enough to comfortably fit a six foot five bugger like myself. Otherwise I would've put it on my credit card tomorrow.

[onearmedbandit]

Very, very, very nice.

you would be very very surprised at how roomy porsche's usually are...and I would doubt that one would be any different!!

[0arbreaka]

Im 6"4 and I do struggle to fit in some porsches comfortably, but I can say that the GT is neiter uncomfortable or comfortable.

[Lorax]

Head room is the key. My dad's blenhiem-retired-person-car (Suzuki Wagon R - see attachment) has heaps of room, a beautiful car to sit in. But not to look at. Never get pulled over by the cops though.

Might go in and sit in a porsche. Now I've got an excuse: "I would like to find out how much head room you have in your $1million plus Porsche's please"

[Big Dave]

Ditto. I prefer a S600 partly for that reason. :cool:

It's my feet that don't fit. And the egress, it's impossible to get out of one cooly.

[0arbreaka]

The 997 arent as bad as the previous carrera's room wise, but I still have to say that I dont like the 987 boxters as they were/are hairdressers cars and not roomy at all. The roomiest porsche is the cayenne, but those chew through brakes and tyres faster than I can chew through a pizza.

[Kittyhawk]

Now that's a deceant cage.....should have asked if you could race it on ya bike :innocent:

You can get all the head you want with one of those!

:gob: do you want to re-phrase that............lol

[Trudes]

NNiiiiiiiicccccccccceeeeeeeeeee!!!

Simple answere. Buy a convertable.

[Vagabond]

F@#% that must be one of the ugliest cages I've set eyes on!

[SlashWylde]

...Its worth more than most peoples houses.... *Cough cough* 1.2 mil...

Meh, it's just a car. Material worth is in the eye of the beholder. I'd rather have the house.

[Finn]

Hey, thanks for cleaning my car the other day. Say hello to Tony for me.

[Devil]

The GT will be fine. The top comes off.

I saw that car when it first came into the country. Cruising down great south rd coming towards me. Didn't stand out to start with because it just looks typical porsche front-on, then I started to see the side and hear the exhaust. oooo baby!

[The Pastor]

that has to be one of the nicest cars ive seen.

I didnt like porches (much, give me any i'll still happly dirve it :D ) till now.


Thats as fast as a bike, and i bet way more fun!

[Brett]

Hey, I see you like my car. Once you have finished servicing it, how about a little bag of mints aye?

One day...those will be my words.

[bane]

Ditto. I prefer a S600 partly for that reason. :cool:

Honda! but thats about 3 foot long :gob:



...oh you mean a Merc...

[Smokin]

You wouldn't like to see that car going for a cruize around the West Coast, Our potholes would eat it!!!

[Street Gerbil]

Looks like a visualization of a scream: "I have a small penis and I am desperate".
Of course my cage (Spacio) is a visualization of a flipped bird and "I don't give a damn what you think about my car.... as long as I have my motorbike".

[0arbreaka]

What type of porsche do you drive Finn, assuming thats what you do drive....

[Skyryder]

I've owned a couple of V Dubs in my day but the Porche has never been one of my favourite cars. Now the Aston Marton.....................

Yea you'd never see James Bond in a Porsche...............not even as a passenger...................it just seems so marteni......ish. Like shacken not stirred............or is it the other way around?

Skyryder

[onearmedbandit]

James Bond isn't real.

[0arbreaka]

heres another pic of the cage.

[Lorax]

Drove a mates convertible once (tiny one). Soooo shit. The top of the windscreen was exactly at eye level, had to either slouch or sit straight-backed and look over. Was hilarious.

I feel for people that are seriously tall eg 7 foot. 6' 5" is nothing compared to that.

Meh! - I still take it to the hoop and fake their un-co arse.

But when they post up on your ass you respect their unco-ness...

[Big Dave]

Box and one and deny the ball. And hold.

[sAsLEX]

Pretty easy when you dont have a pesky engine or transmission in the way of your feet!

[The_Dover]

Hey, thanks for cleaning my car the other day. Say hello to Tony for me.

that can't be your car.

I can see a bald prick in the background but unless you were standing on a box....

[Forest]

I'm over in Melbourne today.

It looks like there's a bunch of Ferraris sitting in the warehouse today. Is it worth taking a pic?

eeeewwwww....a cayenne isn't a porsche!!! it's a...a...a...i dunno...but it ain't a real porsche!!!

I took some photos on my camera phone, so the quality is pretty bad.

Apparently this is a privateer racing team and the cars belong to the head of the company. I'm not really into cages, but was glad to see there was a classic MV Augusta and a Norton down there as well.

The racing team comprises a pair of F40 race spec machines, a pair of Maranallo race spec machines. There's also an original Ford GT40 and a Testarossa, along with some other stuff. I don't know what the silver cage is, but I'm told it recently finished 2nd in its class at Le Mans.

If anyone wants some better photos, let me know and I'll take my camera with me tomorrow.

[NZsarge]

heres another pic of the cage.
:drool: :love:

[CM2005]

:gob: HEATHEN WORDS! you can't lean a porsche!! gosh! i'd still rather a bike a boat a van and a house instead of the car.

[The Pastor]

no way man, this car will pwn everything on the roads :love: If I could afford this car I'd own it in a heartbeat.

[0arbreaka]

Im not a porsche person at all but I do like the Carrera GT, it has some sort of "just another supercar" appeal to it.
