Very slowly.

So my excessive tire consumption can omly be blamed on my driving style! I guess I will be visiting my tire guy every 3600 miles or so!
That is just so neat. I love to hear/see these things get driven. No sense in staring at them. Sure they look good but damn do they drive good... You're driving style should give you some points Nothing wrong with wagging the tail...

No, only the two 997's. I would like to have an "outlaw" 356 someday, you know something a little faster than the stockers. Either that or add a "Sharkafied" TT to the collection, for the rainy days.
