Hi, I am new!

E.I.? E.I.? Oh!

Like I've never heard that one before.


As for Spielberg, I have shaken his hand, but I did not see A.I.


Let's see how far off topic this conversation can get. Did I mention I went for a ride in a Porsche 911 GT2 during my lunchbreak yesterday?

THAT is interesting!

I went on a drive both with a GT3 and with a GT2 (996 based) and I was very impressed by them. The regular 996 instead feels slow as our not boosted NSXs...

Anyway I do not like the "low-profile" look of ALL 996, GT2 included, over the NSX. It is not exotic enough...

How did you find the ride in the GT2?

Well, the 2002 GT2 feels extremely fast. I don't think I've ridden in anything that accelerates faster. It's also pretty harsh...super stiff suspension. Definitely not a car I'd live with as a daily driver. Now I'm wondering if my boss will ever let me drive her.

Agreed. For looks, the only Porsche I truly love is the upcoming 2003 Carrera GT (if only I had the money). I've never been much of a fan of the 911...though I can't deny that there is a coolness factor to the GT2. Of course, nothing will ever make me give up my NSX!

Fine, but if you want to get way off topic...what did you have for lunch?

When I first played a round of golf, I shot a 123. That was ten years ago. It took a long time, but I eventually shot my best score of 78. My best nine (not that same round) was 36. Because I play with my NSX (oops, slightly back on topic

) more than I should, I am not playing as much golf. I now shoot mid 80s.

For more off topic stuff, I will be fixing my dishwasher tomorrow.

I'm not a big fan of tomatoes.

Me neither, I don't eat ketchup with fries or my burgers.

That was a great movie, by the way. My friend is a Kurosawa freak (he wants to be Asian). Seven Samurai is great, too.

 

[gheba_nsx]

True!
I like movies too! Specially the Ketchup ones...

I must remind you of Gerry Johnsons NSX that you rode in just a few weeks ago!
PS You know what they say, the second thing that goes is the memory.
