datsunfreak Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I did not have a jacket that matched my assless chaps. By definition, all chaps are assless. That's redundant over and over again. :rofl: Beetle seen today... Quote Link to comment

KiloTango1200 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Porsche 928 at the Denton TX Library. Haven't seen one of these in a while. Quote Link to comment
smoke Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I had one of those. Quote Link to comment
KiloTango1200 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I had one of those. A friend of mine's Mom owned the Toy Store in San Antonio and dealt mostly in Corvettes, but the daily driver was a 928S. Wouldn't mind having one myself. I like the shape, looks like it was carved out of a bar of soap. Quote Link to comment
smoke Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 It was actually kinda fast Quote Link to comment

Wouldn't mind having one myself. I like the shape, looks like it was carved out of a bar of soap. I just never really liked that 928, Just a little too much like a bar of soap. I think you hit it right on the head. :rofl: 1 Quote Link to comment

smoke Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I'm not very big for one. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I'm not very big for one. Your size changes based on what car you're driving? That's awesome. :rofl: 2 Quote Link to comment

housew Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I had a 86 928s. Solid it last fall. Great looking car (I had 18" turbo twists and a slight roll). https://imageshack.com/i/jj44zhj It was a GREAT dd. Nice and quiet, excellent road manners, super comfey seats, awesome brakes (giant brembos), decent fuel mileage, excellent rumble from the 5.0l although not very Porsche like. The are electrical nightmares though, and although fast in 1986, not really by todays standards basically it did everything well enough and with so little drama that it was boring and I ditched it. I prefer my porches air cooled light weight, and stick shift. Quote Link to comment
smoke Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Yeah, the quickness of it was a bit on the lame side, I never took mine down the track, but it was probably a high 13 second to low 14 car, which is not terrible, but the top speed...well, I don't really know, because I chickened out at a little over 150 mph, but it was still gaining some.

510T Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 If you look reeeaaalllllly close and squint you can see a Ford GT pulled over in front of the CHP. This was on an off-ramp and a flat bed tow truck had just pulled up. With no real info I can only assume the driver was traveling at such a high rate of speed he got arrested and the GT impounded. ;) Quote Link to comment
smoke Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Could be, but they are not exactly known for reliability either. Quote Link to comment
510T Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I had that thought too but prefer the speeding theory. Quote Link to comment
smoke Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Yes, me too, much cooler. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 But is California like Texas in that when someone is going to jail there's at least two patrol cars there? ^_^ Quote Link to comment
