after:





...yep it´s true "she" has left me today :cry:
unfortunately i´ve to say that i sold my love one this week, i know, kinda off-topic but i´d like to honor my big lady who went along with me the past 3 years...
i know many ppl hate that car because of it´s look and stuff, but for me it has been love at first sight and i´ll definitely miss her...

hope that i´ll find an appropriate alternative... 8)

farewell my diva...

Damn for a minute I thought you were leaving JW and not the car!

Especially since you put this post on the Porsche central site!

You had me worried there for a sec, I thought we were going to lose our resident Porsche (well, cars in general) expert...

Any ideas of what the new car is going to be?

I knew this was about to happen, and although feeling sad for that great car to be sold, I'm already excited about any future purchase!! Bye bye beloved 745! we will miss you!

Shite mate. You scared the living shit of me. I thought you were leaving JW.

As for the car...I guess its like all things in life. We always have to let go of our most loved and respected things in life. Be it people, cars, toys or pets.

I can understand you loved the car and all, but, IMO, it's just a car. It's not a Ferrari or Lambo or CGT to have a "soul", so move on. What is your next car going to be?

...i knew it....

no no guyz, you won´t get rid of me that fast...

reason: obsolescence...
i never had a car more than 3 to 5 years because of resale value

replacement: well, to be honest i do not really need a autobahn cruiser any more, to save time and nerves i´m flying to germany since some weeks, it´s a bit more expensive but it´s definitely more comfortable for me than driving 4 to 6 hours every weekend ending up in another traffic jam....
so i don´t really know which car i should buy, my BMW dealer has some good options and i´m extremely satisfied with my previous BMW models, but on the other hand i think i should wait a bit...i´m after something different, we´ll see...maybe next spring....
for this remaining summer a friend of mine gave me a very good hint when we met at NS last monday, he showed up there with a friend from switzerland and he had a nice ride with him...NO, no Porsche, but i think i´ll rent such a car for this summer, because i loved it very much, on the other hand a kinda uncommon ride for me though, but i liked it and i never heared something bad about it...

so i´ll only rent it for some months and then give it back to the dealer, to be honest i wouldn´t actually buy such a car, sure it´s nice but well...you guys will see and then we talk

to sum it up, no precise idea for a 745 replacement, but i think it won´t be a 4porte, E60 M5 or Alfa , i drive the sports cars at work and so i needn´t one for private driving, i need a practical and relaxing car...

we´ll see... 8)
