I think the least personal part about the internet is the inability to stare at people in disgust

The car in my avatar is a Porsche 924 Turbo, the car I was buying until somebody bought it out from under me (I had to travel 600km to get it, and deal with importing it from the united states, and somebody bought it while I was dealing with all of that.)

Enzo Carsinis are all leather walking shoes from Italy... probably the cheapest Italian walking shoe, but the cheapest Italian shoe is still better than the most expensive Chinese shoe.

Post whores

Nice shoes is better than a nice car... in job interviews they only look at your shoes!

The shoes and the haircut... hmm, maybe I should grow my hair back...

As for my car, it's a 79 Porsche 924, waiting at my brothers house right now. I have to put about $500-$1000 into it before it'll be in good condition, it needs new seats, the synchro rings in the tranny replaced, this and that.

Then I have to come up with another $1000 for insurance, and finish paying off my car loan(came from parents, interest free )

I have an engine from a 924 Turbo waiting for me about 600km away, I just have to go pick it up... it blew a head gasket, so it needs a rebuild. I plan to rebuild that as my project engine, EFI conversion, watercooled turbo, higher compression, boost controller...

In dehumidified storage. Not much point in having an unroofed car in Britain during the winter. I have been given 5 offers on it... maybe I should take one probably next year.
