  1. Boxsters and Corvettes are nice, but I'm not going to get a 2 seater. The TT even seats 4...sort of.
  2. Thanks Tim! If I come across something, I'll be asking for you opinion.
  3. Good info Tim. I'd be more interested in 'fun to drive' than all out HP. I'd also take stock/reliable over something modded. Also, nice interior and zero rust are a must...I've thought about buying something in TN or GA and bringing it home. As much as I like wrenching on motorcycles, I just don't like to work on cars. But...I have a friend of a friend that is a skilled honest audi/merc/bmw/porsche mechanic. He works at a lot that only deals in German cars. He also does side work out of his garage for fair prices. I like the Audi 3.2 motor either in the A4 or a TT. I don't know as much about BMWs , not sure which models/power trains are most reliable. In my budget I'd be looking for something with 80k+ on the odo and documented maintenance history...and do a PPI
  4. I've done it. It was awesome.
  5. Riding motorcycles at hyper legal speeds just doesn't seem to be scratching the itch the way it used to Not sure what to do
  6. That's is the ballpark of what Ive been considering. ...A4/S4, C350, TT, G37, or a bmw 3 series. I'm not that into cars, and the cost of ownership seems a lot higher than a motorcycle.
  7. I sold the VFR 1200 and the VRSCR. I have a decent amount of cash in the toy fund. Not really sure what to do next. I still have the CB500x, which is a surprisingly fun bike on and off road, it's even a pretty capable tourer. I probably won't get another bike until the end of the season...and then no idea what direction I'd go with that. I'm not really a car guy, but have been thinking about getting a second car as a toy...something German and sporty. I've driven a few, fun but didn't totally get my blood pumping. Plus, I just bought a new crossover. Suggestions?
  8. I have a set of new in the plastic set of Pirelli Angel GT A-Spec. They are 120 & 190. I'll take $250, I think that's a good price.
  9. The waves and current was so strong when I went snorkeling in Riviera Maya that I really didn't enjoy it. I felt like I was swimming for my life instead of enjoying the scenery. A huge stingray (about 5 feet across) was close enough that I could touch it...very cool, but I was trying not to drown. Next time I'll snorkel in a nice calm cenote.
  10. The HD is sold. It sold on eBay to a guy in California. He's having it shipped. The VFR is next.
  11. So Russians did things like place adds on FB, which I don't think too troubling and it probably isn't even illegal. I think the possibility that Trump colluded directly with Russians is extremely remote, like zero percent chance. If Russian hacking had any meaningful impact on the election, it would have happened on Obama's watch anyways. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/top-democrat-says-obama-shares-responsibility-russia-s-meddling-n848661
  12. I am not having health issues. Unexpected family stuff.
  13. Yep. Right now life is not going to allow for much riding.
  14. Nope. Selling this and the VFR.
  15. I do, but for sale. I could sell it if we ever get decent weather.
  16. That's the key. Franchising has some benefits, and gives you a name. But, most franchises aren't cheap, and will likely have recurring fees that take a bite.
  17. I prefer drivers over ribbons.
  18. If anyone is looking... A lifetime ago, I used to sell high end audio. I'm selling a pair of Polk RT3000P Speakers. I know the Polk name doesn't have the cache' of some other audio names in high end circles, but their flagship models are as good or better than speakers costing much more. The bass units are powered with a heavy amp that puts out a legitimate 300w/channel. New these were $3,600/pair. They sound fantastic. Stock photo
  19. The motor looks like it's from an old goldwing.
  20. Top right, by the green vehicle.
  21. You won't be able to unhear this one. Sorry. System Of A Down - Chop Suey (Animal Cover)
