Here is a pic while installing a baby seat in the back of my 993. I'm expecting some looks when I start using it to take my daughter to daycare.
i always thought that the rear seat in the 993 was meant for children to begin with...

I believe cars are meant to be driven. I see zero point in having a beautiful car and never driving it. Might as well have Miranda Kerr in your bed and sleeping on the ground cause you don't want to fudge her mascara...
We go through our entire lives being told what to do every step of the way. The garage was always the one place where you could indulge in your own passion, with not a care for the outside world.
Pics of it on the rack, on the car would be optimal for this thread...

Ask and thou shalt receive. Picked up the demo 8 used for $700 so definitely not breaking the bank haha. Went on my first ride today with it, first time riding DH (or a bike really haha) for about 7 years.
I had a 2011 Demo 8 briefly, and although everyone else has nothing but praise for them, I could never get comfortable on it, the bike felt very "squirely" under me. I can't really explain it any better. I kinda see why people like them, cause it was easy to manipulate and with a little bit of muscle it was easy to just throw it around and force it to do what you wanted. The problem for me became when it came time to just drop the hammer and bomb through bumps the bike always seems to want to buck me off instead of working with me to pound through the rough stuff.
I ended up ditching it and keeping my Session 10, for comparison purposes I am about 4 seconds fast on A-Line with the Session 10, and a full 10 seconds faster through Dirt Merchant. At the same time I missed how much fun I could have on the Demo 8 throwing it around, so I picked up a Transition Bottle Rocket for flinging around.
Uh oh... The Cypress waterfall picture thread has started...
Ya I liked the ride I had today, nothing too crazy but the back felt really planted and smooth. Definitely don't think it's a race bike as there were times were it felt kind of sluggish but all in all for the minimal amount of riding I did today i'm happy.
PM if you wanna go ride sometime, all my friends have mostly sold their bikes haha.

I would love to, I havn't been up in about a year though. My back is kinda messed up, its the same reason I havn't been up snowboarding at all this year. I hope to be healthy enough to ride this spring/summer, but for now I don't really know what's going to happen.
Hey westopher, how's the Sea to Sky these days? Heading up there next week and wondering if I should take the C4 up with its PS2s or bring a proper snowie-equipped car instead.
Willing to sell a family member for a few minutes on RS

I wouldn't risk it to be honest, as much as I want to live vicariously through you driving the 964 up there. The weather is just too volatile up there. It can get pretty buck nasty in an hour from being perfectly mellow. Also, I believe whistler is supposed to get hit with some snow/rain over the whole next week, so there will be some temperatures that hit below freezing depending on when you go. I always check the highway cams, they are a very valuable source of info.

Needs a drop. Are these 18s? I wouldn't go over 17 for S2000.
Yeah Im waiting to buy coils. These wheels came with the car and yes they are 18" I just picked it up about a week ago, gonna drive it for a few weeks before I start buying things
Finally Found some time to aimlessly go for a drive. Drove by convention center and of course just had to snap a pic. Purple lighting in the back ground... one of my favorite colors, so I just had to pull over. (slight grain on pics, used my potato one plus one phone cam)
