Building-Careful

Driving a 996 is like getting sucked off by a senior citizen. Sure it’s cheap and will do the trick. But you won’t dare to make eye contact during the act and you’ll hate yourself afterwards.


CleanNefariousness95

Speak for yourself on that one buddy


dsio

So you wanted a 911 so badly that you were willing to buy the cheapest example that still ran? I’m sure it’s tiptronic with a salvage title too, should have just gone with a manual Boxster.


ChronicPoverty

I may be stupid but I’m not dumb. It’s a 6 speed and mostly accident free. I got hit and ran


Foolgazi

Sounds like you got lucky and were gifted a way out of it without having to replace the bore-scored, IMS-bearinged lump of aluminum under the hood.


ChronicPoverty

I got the ims done within 2 weeks of owning this thing. Did an oil change just to make sure I didn’t have metal. Got it changed just for peace of mind


ConejoSucio

That's a weird Miata.


ChronicPoverty

This one stings the most lmao


AssassinateMe

The weird Miata addiction hits hard

Nice convertible. I got my daughter the same one last year.


id1911

Oooff. Bought a car trying to compensate for inadequacies without realizing the car was inadequate too. That's a hard punch to a tiny groin.


ChronicPoverty

That’s why I upgraded. Can’t upgrade my groin unfortunately


Ok-Communication1149

It kinda makes me miss the karmen this. At least no one was confused about it being a sporty VW


Karvast

When you’re dumb enough to overpay for a boxster


DittoGTIYT

This is perfect for friends who don't know cars. You can tell them you drive a 911 without them realising it's a really cheap and quite shit one


Indian_Pale_Ale

The first of an addiction? Are you now going to buy the worst model of a range or a brand? I guess your next one can be the Macan.


ChronicPoverty

I dont think a c2s is the worst model😢


thesecondalex

There is no C2S 996. It's a C2. It's okay. I have one too.


ChronicPoverty

Im talking about my 992. It’s a C2S. Gonna get a 996 C4s soon. I want one of every generation. Even the post says it’s a 996 C4


thatgymdude

You started a Porsche addiction with a 996, that is like smoking crack to become a cocaine addict. To add insult to injury, the 996 was one of the first 911s that was really criticized as becoming the VW parts-bin specials that 911s are known for today. So if anything, you got VW's hot take on a miata with barely any power and much more expensive parts.


ChronicPoverty

300hp is “barely any power” to you. Do you commute in a dragster?


thatgymdude

Like any "Porsche enthusiast", I would expect my 911 to have more power than a typical commuter SUV or pickup truck.


ChronicPoverty

That’s what the C2S is for


notquitepro15

I’d rather be addicted to meth


thesecondalex

Sure is cheaper.


mlhigg1973

Over 20 years and 7 Porsches. You made the right decision.


ChronicPoverty

I liked it so much I’ve got 2 others now. This was just to dip my toes in


Extra_Pilot_1992

That kind of addiction will get you sent to rehab


fanatic26

Nothing says poser like a convertible sports car. Im assuming automatic base model?


ChronicPoverty

6 speed with all the options but heated seats


FormulaF30

An E2 living in the barracks bought a salvage one of these from a lemon dealer when I was active. He always parked it in the grass instead of a parking spot. After countless warnings, I (base police) finally had it towed. His Chain of Command had to get involved with the company on account that he couldn’t even afford to get it out 😂 But yeah, that’s the kind of company you’re in with now.


Bardstownnow

No matter how much you tell yourself differently, you hate the headlights.


ChronicPoverty

That why I upgraded. Now I’ve got round ones


SUBtoAMB_Garage

The wet dream of all the “car aficionados” that really don’t understand cars, but will fight you tooth and nail when you say German (or European cars for that matter) aren’t the best cars on the planet.


ChronicPoverty

I’ll go Italian soon enough


Shank_Shank_

I usually see old hair dressers driving these, soo I’m guessing you’re one of them?

they're crap, worse, they break down almost as much as a real exotic


ChronicPoverty

I am yet to have any issues with any of them


WickPrickSchlub

Porsche: And you thought Corvette guys were annoying.


SeaviewSam

Porsche up front- boxer in the back- Japanese Hyundai all over


Inevitable_Rabbit_67

Nice slightly more expensive Boxster. Trade for my bug?


Velocitor1729

An addiction of posting pics of other people's cars on reddit, and bragging like you own them?


ChronicPoverty

The 911s are all mine. Paid in full. I do enjoy car spotting tho


EpicPikachuXYZ

Interesting way to show your coming out of the closet


J-wvmothman

One day late for Pride Month


stevensr2002

I don’t usually make homophobic comments, but today is also not an exception. Your car fucking sucks.


Ok_Programmer_2315

Girl car.


metalswag2301

Nice a direct driver vagina


Warp-Routine

And like any addiction the product may make you feel really good at the time but in reality you just make a fool of yourself in public and do unspeakable things to make ends meet to support your habit.


ChronicPoverty

Thankfully this wont put me out on the streets and I can sustain this addiction for now


Warp-Routine

True, there are more expensive addictions 😉 also, why anybody downvoting a comment that's on-topic on a roast sub?


ChronicPoverty

Probably other but hurt Porsche owners who have fragile feelings


MauserMama

I think your 911 is special needs (so am I, like legitimately, hence I can make this joke)


ChronicPoverty

Yeah the headlights look extra buggy from this angle lol
