Yeah but MSFT and AAPL shares do not really help in setting up your money laundering scheme as much as art and vintage cars.

Well this is just a terrible turn of events. Somebody stole Billie Joe Armstrong's Nova....which has been in the family 30+ years.

Ok ok enough, let's get back to P car content as soon as you are done shedding a tear for Bille Joe.

In terms of the exotic cars and funny money business, several older gentleman at my local coffee shop play this game. Mostly Porsches, every once in a while a Bentley or an Aston-Martin, all registered with a Montana corporation and plates (here in Pennsylvania) and they don’t hold them very long. Let’s call him Vince…Vince told me that once you can afford the “entry ticket”, you’ll outperform the stock market all day long and it eventually becomes difficult to find the next car when too many enter the game.

Aren’t new things supposed to go in the “What did the postman bring today” thread?

This is a 991.1 Cup.

This is how it starts lol

Tell us more about that FATurbo express rear hood and wing. I am curious. It doesn't look like the one that was used on the Porsche 962, Dauer nor the TWR WSC95 or the Sauber that sported the same sponsors.

This is a stock Cup car. De-stickering going on...

[Saab2000]

Is it road legal? Or strictly track?

Very strictly track :)

ah, thanks. Didn't realize they came with liveries like this. Time for the matching Stilo ...

This livery was made by the previous owner, he was a watch guy :)

I was going to say, there's a lot of Tag Heuer / Porsche partnership content out there, but all of the cars seem to be sim racers.

Matt Farah did a few days ago. His Boxster Spyder is on that boat.

That's quite an insurance claim. For Porsche not Farah. I assume he hasn't taken ownership of it officially yet.

Betting there is a Norwegian salvage ship already on its way.

Unfortunately, this is going to impact some real people who have waited a long time to buy their dream car. According to my dealer, there's at least a one year wait for any 911. Luckily, I was just there to attempt to trade in my Macan on a new one.

It sucks that, as we approach what I consider to be the automotive end of times, supply is severely constrained.
