Just to change the subject for a second, on the flip side I just built one basically equivalent to my 2000 'S' that cost $53,323 including about $2500 in options only. It was purchased in 1999, I guess if we want to call that a poor Porsche we can, seems like a lot of money back then. I built the following and it is only ~$12k more, I don't know how much inflation or income increase there has been in that time in general, but I don't think that is a large increase. Maybe we are still in poor mans Porsche territory . One could have easily created a 80k Boxster with options back then I would think.

Oh and this is the first picture of the car I like yet!! Actually doesn't look so bad, I'll take one.

Ahh great, you're going to get a letter from command now, you exposed Tennille as an important international operative!! The captain, was designed to "toss off the scent", in real life the only thing he was captain of was the pussy whipped club; that's why he was forced to participate in muskrat love.

OMG that’s got to be the corniest music videos I have ever seen. The lyrics are bad enough but the special effects and those costumes are BAD.

Leave it to JD to take a thread like this and turn it into something that will mentally affect us.
