No problem with parking...just ask your partner...
to get out first and keep a lookout for curbs, front and back...that's what I do when I have no confidence.
The last thing you want to hear is "grrrooodd" or "bonk".
Funny how my driving skills and estimation deteriorated so fast after all these nice electronic features.

Introducing the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS
This new Porsche 911 GT3 RS made its world premiere at the 2015 Geneva International Motor Show. It's powered by a 4-Liter 6-cylinder that puts out 500hp. 0-60mph in a mere 3.1 seconds, and rockets a 1/4 mile on the track at 11.2 seconds. Launch date in t...
PDK gearbox ...
... Porsche let's the manual for the Cayman GT4 ... But the roof is magnesium !!!! That's quite something special. Well, i wouldn't mind the pdk i guess :-) Bim
Awesome roof...
I actually wished the Cayman GT4 came in a PDK. I know the Cayman GT4 is not about lap times, but more about driver enjoyment and involvement. But, it still would've been nice if they would offer it in PDK. They could've kept it all on the same assembly l...
GT4 vs GT3
I suppose Porsche listened to the purist customers still wishing for a manual, so the best choice is a manual in the 'slow' GT4 were lap times aren't really important and PDK in the car that has to prove a few things. I think if you want a Porsche (Cayman...
The ZF 8 is amazing...
I've driven the ZF 8 speed in multiple guises, most BMW products. It's a great transmission. Smooth, extremely fast shifting, highly efficient, direct-feeling, and high percentage of full lock up with the torque converter. A great transmission product fro...
It will probably ...
.. take off in 2nd gear in ECO mode ... last week i was driving my VW Transporter (1.9 TDI 102hp manual) and while driving of the driveway it felt so slow .. until i realized i was in third gear :-) ... but it did the job very smooth :-) The strange thing...
I'm sure you'll appreciate the BMW more once you've had it...
I'm currently test-driving the Mercedes-Benz C300 4 Matic. It's not what I'm used to, but the car does some things extremely well and the amount of technology that has come through is quite a difference. Did you consider the 320d? The handling of the 3-se...
You might be right Patrick.
Don't buy the Mercedes as i think you will regret it, a BMW is so much nicer to drive. I did briefly consider the 318 or 320d, i know it's a fantastic handling car, but then i realized the 120 is lighter and even more dynamic .. and cheaper ! I also like ...
I like a lot what I see ...
and would like to get one, even when people would be surprised ... - to say the least :-)
Very nice!
I like it! I want one! Will it catch fire? Probably. But I'd still want one! If I were to be critical, the quarter mile time is a bit unimpressive... In a day where the all wheel-drive 911 Turbo, the rear wheel-drive Ferrari 458, the awd Lamborghini Hurac...

Don't have one...
95%+ of the trips I'm driving alone. 99% of the mileage, I'm driving alone. Although there was one time in an unusual curved parallel parking space, a bystander has helped me. So I unfortunately don't have a human parking guidance machine. And yes, those ...
Difficult question...
I really like the 5130P, just the normal 5130P. Would love to own one. But same thing with the Porsche, would love to own one.
While this is technically amazing...
and a beautiful car, the 997.2 GT3 RS really is very close to my heart S ...
