Texas got both states beat. We’re doing away with inspections all together and now you just need to pay a fee.

I went to college in NH and drove an 83 GTI with a small rust hole in the fender. I had to find a shady guy in town to get it inspected every year...but I wasn't required to have insurance.

Live Free or Die (especially of you are hit by an uninsured driver).

It's awesome that we let NH decide which candidates are viable...

Not electric. Except to drive. 😀

For Skittles fanciers, the dealership also had this GT3 in "Ruby Star" with matching contrast stitching.

Aventurine green > skittles.

Apparently the embargo lifted in the 911 ST videos. A dozen or so popped up on my feed. No surprise it's just about perfect, manual only, lots of parts from the GT3/GT3RS. I'd go so far as to say peak 992.
Shore Blue with the Cognac Heritage interior please. TYVM.

Bro, you used to have the best setback...what happened?

I know. It's an adjustment. You'll be happy to hear I finally bought a gun now that any rando can drive (or even walk!) right past my house.

My primary takeaway from the manual 992 GT3 Touring I drove was the transmission did not suit the character of the car at all. I will go as far as saying I downright hated the gearbox in that car.

Perhaps a LWFW would make things slightly better, but I have almost no doubt the PDK would be a better fit.

Regardless, my opinion is moot. The 992 in general does nothing for me.

We all know that they have terrible taste: considering 911s in less flashy colors like Shore Blue means they're too embarrassed and repressed by society to flaunt their quarter of a million dollar cars.

Quarter million dollar... LOL.

You're forgetting the $150k ADM added to that price.
