Tigerbite84 is infamous around these parts





I'm hoping to pick this up this weekend or next.

I'm getting married in September, but all of my friends told me to get my toys in before I get married, haha.

My old man also told me to enjoy it now, the fun doesn't last that long. Enjoy it while you're young. I guess the last couple of years I've just been so busy working, getting grad school done, getting investment properties, and looking at other business opportunities. I know they said to wait till you're older to get it, but but the time I'm "old enough", I don't want to drive this car anymore!

My pops told me, "when you get old, food doesn't taste as good, cars aren't as fun, so get it now. You work your whole life, enjoy life while you're young". haha, typical Asian dad.

Wow. Looks just like a GT3 with all the mods (except for the wheels). Nice looking car. Definitely do this before marriage. Congrats on the car.

Had another thought. I know you said this was a C4S, but it looks just like a 2006 C2S that a guy named Jellis had (he used to frequent the boards but sold his car). Am I seeing things?

It's a C4S, hmm I don't think it is the same seller, the current owner is in CT and named James.

I'm not so sure about that. I've owned porsches since 1987 and the older I get the more I enjoy them!!

I also intend to drive them until I'm not driving anymore.

Good Luck with her.

An x-pipe alone is typically not the throaty sound people desire. It's more sound, but raspy. The deeper sound comes from more free flowing side mufflers.

What a beauty! I agree 100%, drive it while you're young. You'll love it although with that car and the attention you'll be getting ... not so sure your wife will.

Enjoy it, it's a beauty!

I have a LX570, great as far as SUVs go, but I'm driving my 911 everyday I can get away with it!

Yes, my Lexus Rx330 is my "beater" now. I do like the LX, my Dad had a couple of them and they're beasts.
