We saw this the other day. It is supposed to air during the Superbowl and will be Porsche's first U.S. commercial in two years. I just love the sounds. So far, there have been no votes for RSR mufflers on our upgrade page. This video might just push us over the edge. Related Porsche Posts Did Mercedes 2011 Superbowl Commercial Rip Off …

Porsche 911 GT3 RS Nike Air Max Light -Racing Shoes

I bought my 1997 Porsche 993 C4S in October of '06. Since then, I've put about about 6,000 miles on it (and the tires). The rear tires are showing some wear (the tread wear indicators are now visible) and I've decided I want to buy a new set of tires all around (this way I'm starting off fresh with a matched set and can really watch how the …

Well, I had a pre-written entry all set to post automatically, but not sure what happened to it. I just got home from all the festivities and realized that no post had ever gone up today. Technology is a wonderful thing; it always does what you tell it to do, never what you want it to do! Anyway, very nice day today (but secretly glad it is …
