Drove my first Porsche today.

Not mine mine ofcourse.

But for whatever work-related reason I had earlier today I got to.
1995 Carerra like this one:

huge pic

But red and a soft top.

Clutch was a little long.

Also got a to drive a 2005 Impala. Never cared for them (still don't) but that was a damn nice interior despite that crappy steering wheel position that I hate so very much. Felt very torquey as well, but that's probably because it's brand new.

Makes me want smaller gearing and a 6 speed now.


I drove the SVX really slow coming home today ):

Don't I wish. I work for a company that moves things from place to place.

I saw I was jus playin. I agree though.

When I turned it on I had to look around because I thought I was back in the Trans Am. Even the backseat was basically two buckets, but it was way smaller. Makes the SVX look big inside.
And the Impala was fricking huge.

I swear you can fit three or four convicts back there comfortably.

Delivered someone's 1999 Grand Cherokee Laredo (the V8).

SWEET sweet machine.

Jeeps rock. This one had some haul, too.
