........... it does, rather well. :P

My poor 911 has taken the brunt of my frustration of not having any time to track it, so despite only putting 5,000 kms on it in a year (where half of it was a single weekend drive through the mountains to the north of Japan), check out what it looked like when I bought it...



.... and what it looks like today.



And believe it or not, the ONLY part I have NOT modified is the engine, for once! (I mean, I plugged the noise reducer outlet with a hardware store plastic plug, but then, my exhaust bypasses most of the noise cancelling features anyway - but that's the only hardware mod I did to the engine).

Hey Glen, this Martini mod some auto journalist in england did that to a brand new blue porsche Cayman GT4. So you made the car slower adding all that weight?

2017 M2 on the way next year....

Congrats! what engine it comes with it? N55? Are you gonna ski at Sauveur this year?

[Bimmerista]

The engine is the N55 with the Msport1/2 package-so same Hp and torque as the 440

Yes we'll be skiing at Sauveur if not as cold as 2 years ago and if there will be more snow than last year

I'm from Gatineau, close enough to Montreal.

Good to know, thanks! I'll check it out.

Last set of tires I bought was at Talon Tires, with a rebate on Toyo tires and another rebate coupon from BMW QC club. Very professional service. Those folks know their stuffs.

Another one I used in the past is 1010tires.ca

Anyone know anyone selling a Cayenne Turbo? I'm possibly in the market for one, but my friend tells me they're all fishy as fuck and to stay away. I need a winter truck, so I don't want to be too picky - but I'm leaning towards buying that rather than bringing a LandCruiser from Japan. Any leads on a legitimate Cayenne that hasn't been abused?

I sort of looked but didn't seem to see anything exciting there. Anyway, I've since spoken with a friend mechanic and he told me to stay away from anything but the most newest CTs..... apparently, they're in absolutely decrepit state from all the rich wives who don't maintain them properly. Sigh. I really did want one.

Maybe in a week, or maybe in a year or so..... depends how the discussion goes in the next day or two and who makes it more interesting for me. I'll let you know!
