If you saw my previous thread, you know I drove an S60R last week on friday. Today, I went to an awesome local pizza place for lunch known as Cio's pizza.

Anyway, after I ate I dropped my friend off and on my way home stopped by at the Subaru dealership. I went in, introduced myself and started talking. The salesman got keys so I could sit inside the STi then we went back to his desk. I gave him my license and he went back to get keys only to find out you have to be 18... This was a dissapointment... oh well, the show goes on!

Right across the street is the Audi and Porsche dealership so I stopped by there. I told him I wanted something fun with a manual transmission. First he took me by the manual A4's including the 3.0L. Next we went to the TT's, they didn't have many manuals in those... He mentioned the S4 earlier and now again so I said, yeah, let's go take a look at that car. We start talking and then he says "Want to take it for a spin? It'll beat the S60R's no doubt!"

We go back inside, grab the keys and I wait outside the front door. He brings it up and starts taking off the interior coverings, this car had just over a mile on it! I get situated in the driver's seat as he removes more of the plastic coverings.. The first thing is notice is that shifting into first gear was VERY DAMN smoothly everytime! I drove it around, some twisty city roads and some freeway driving. When we got back to the dealership I told him that while it was an excellent car with lots of torque, but I wanted something smaller, possibly a 2 seater, and looks more like a sports car. We start talking about the Boxter's and I ask if he has any 911's. He had a couple new ones as well as a 99 and an 02. I take a look at them and show interest in the 02. He tells me to wait right there and gets the keys.

I sit down inside that car and DAMN! This actually feels like a sports car and not some boy-racer attitude car like the STi/S2000/etc.

I take it out and tell him I want to drive this within the city, not so much the freeway. There were many nice twisty roads we took it on as well as long wide open roads. This car truly felt like how a sports car should in terms of ride height, torque, stiff suspension, etc. I'll be honest, with all the power and torque available, I did NOT even get close to the redline! This thing had tons of power at any RPM range I put it at!

Anyway, to sum it up, my view on the STi and cars like it are changing. I can see why even though an STi may outperform cars more expensive than it, it just doesn't feel the same! One 993 911 owner I know always calls them riced cars, possibly because of the boy-racer attitude they portray. I didn't like the Audi as much because of it's size, but it's still definitely a nice car!

Lucky bitch, you're how old and you got to drive those amazing cars???
You're my idol!

Haha, I'm 17

Wait did the Porsche/Audi guy not even check your license like the Subaru guy did?

Yeah, he did, forgot to mention that

im 17...can i legally drive cars: NO, let alone test drive em :-(

O_o Porsche let a 17 year old drive a 911 and a 996?

Yeah, Aga, where do you live anyway?

Indiana

damn, 17 year olds these days...
anyway, how was the ride in the S4? i have ridden in a few older ones and i thought the ride was fine. But recently people have been saying that the new ones' ride is too stiff.

Wait, you were kidding right...?

That's what this thread is about.

996 is model name for the (previous) 911. You know, like R33 and R34.

EDIT:
lol, didnt see the post above...

996 is the generation of the 911...one car. You said 911 and 996. You're German! You should know this.

It was pretty smooth and handled well I guess, I still prefer the 911 over it BY FAR!

I'm confused? Nismo, are you saying that you don't belive Aga?

good going kid

No, I am saying that salesman was a dipshit.

Haha, nah, their Volvo S60R salesman didn't have the slightest of issues either.

He was knowledgeable on the cars too, not just salesman bullshit!

Hey I'm italian and know nothing of Ferarri.

wow, but still i rock you in the face with the Mazdaspeed Miata test drive! limited production car that NO ONE is supposed to be allowed to test drive :-P



i'm doing a bunch of car shopping this weekend... new car within the next 2-3 weeks for me, shiiit.

Looks like I'll have to check out the Mazda dealership

By the way, I go to all these in our Volvo 850 GLT wagon!

Yes, but Nismo's lived in germany, and you know how insane those Germans are about their Prosches.

We can tell... you can't even spell Ferrari.

Sorry AgaBooga but I think I have you beat!

I test drove a Ferrari Enzo today. Despite the fact that I was dressed in my wife beater, worn out flannel pants and a pair of flip-flops, I easily convinced the salesman that I was capable of purchasing this fine automobile by producing a roll of shiny new quarters from my pocket as well as an expired Blockbuster Video membership card.

During the test drive, I pushed the car to the absolute limit but to my amazement, the salesman who was accompanying me was giggling the whole time. I can only assume that he was high as a kite.

At the conclusion of my test drive, I proceeded to jump the Enzo off a 30 degree ramp (just like them Duke Boys used to do) and the car sustained about $300,000 damage. I calmed the salesman down by assuring him that it would "buff right out."

After I got back to the dealership, I proceeded to have wild monkey sex with the ultra-sexy 20-something year old receptionist chick.. the whole time the sales staff were cheering, "Good show sir! A mighty fine job."

As I left the dealership, the manager gave me a gift basket of fresh fruit, various cheeses and a bottle of Dom Perignon.

I turned to he manager, winked confidently and said "Right back at'cha!"

Yes, and we are getting wild about anyone calling them Prosche, Porche, Porker, Porsch...

It is a Porsche, FFS.

Priceless.

wait, you were kidding??

^....

Moe, it is OBVIOUSLY a joke.

No he wasn't. And i saw 26 H3's and a couple of Enzo's that raced some Carrera GT's today. Outside my house.

ok, i knew it was obviously a joke. Do you really think that i could be that utterly retarded ?


not this again...

You're the one that said it tard.

Paulie, your gay?!?!!!111 I knew it

No I think I have you beat.
So I arrive sweaty and naked to my car dealer, Mark Goldsmith in Gold coast bently on rush street.
I ask him "Hey hot stuff got any new shit for me to fuck up?"

Mark: "Of course we do Jon! How about a new Spyker C8? Since you fucked my hot wife last night, you can gladly take it for a spin. But I must warn you it is illegal in the U.S! There are no bumpers or airbags of anykind!"

Jon: "Well I am hot and I smell like sex, but what the hey, lets take the bitch out for spin, the car I mean, not your wife!"

Mark: "Good one Jon!"

So we take it out, the car is very fun, I felt like I was wearing a smoking jacket and it tastes like a cup cake, and Mark was loving every minute of sucking my Jewish penis! We finish the test drive with 8 shots of Jack and this time we are off our ass drunk, and I still naked. I go home and get yelled at.

Wife: "Where the hell were you? You were supposed to pick the kids up from Gibsons and pick up some rib for me? What about your daughters 8 dvds? When are you going to get them you jew bag?!"

Jon: "Yeah, I am naked, hard, and drunk."

Wife: "Thats cute."

I should tell you the story how I managed to blow up a best buy store.

You're drunk again?

... do you live in Tacoma? Because we have a Subaru dealership that is right across from the Porsche Audi too... weird. and when i went there the sales was going to let me drive a Boxster untill he found out i was 14 at the time.

He said he lives in Indiana. keke

Indiana smells like ****

So dondon, let me get this "straight".... (and I use the term loosely). The salesman gratified you as you drove the Spyker?

And I am curious to hear the story about your antics at Best Buy. I just hope you manage to keep you pants on in this one.

omg this thead rocks my face hardcore.

haha... blatant editing of my original post.. all in good fun though.
