Pedro, Where do you get 95? I can only find 93 in Miami.by danz76 - Main Forum
I got one as rental a few months back, and was pleasantly surprised. Yes, the steering (and other functions) is not what I am used to, but it was very comfortable, surprsingly powerful (more peppy than my Jeep Grand Cherokee) and very good on the highway. It also lacked personality, and I doubt anyone will go for this marketing strategy.by danz76 - Main Forum
Permit me to re-focus us back to the plaintiff's burden of proof. Why would a mechanic's testimony be sufficient to show that there is a design defect? All it shows is that one car's IMS failed. A mechanic's testimony to that effect would not demonstrate why it failed, how it failed, whether there was a design defect or simply a mechanical failure from wear, stress or improper use.by danz76 - Main Forum
I am not sure I agree with those assumptions. First of all, good luck getting thousands of plaintiffs organized to file these small claims suits. Almost no one has done so yet, and this has been a known issue since 1999. Organizing people unfamiliar with the legal process to file and prosecute lawsuits is a daunting task. Assuming that many plaintiffs do file small claim suits, the economics arby danz76 - Main Forum
Jeff- love the color scheme on your 2012. Absolutely gorgeous!by danz76 - Main Forum
I don't think its impossible to bring the claim at all. For $15 - $20 one can file the suit and the clerk will gladly take your money, file your papers and assign you a trial date. The matter of actually winning is an entirely different story. Sure, that is possible too, but given the level of complexity the claim and engineering issues involved, it would be cost prohibitive to pursue. The smarby danz76 - Main Forum
Not likely. The people who sell "solutions" are not bound by a decision that was rendered in a case where they were not parties. Further, an unjust enrichment claim requires the plaintiff to prove that (1) the defendant was enriched; (2) the enrichment was at plaintiff's expense; and (3) the circumstances were such that equity and good conscience require defendant to make restitution. Again, if oby danz76 - Main Forum
You can try to file one, but the burden is always on the plaintiff to a bring a cause of action. To meet your burden, one would need an expert witness who is competent and qualified (legal - evidentiary terms of art) to render a written opinion and testify in court that the IMS flaw is a design defect. Porsche likely has mountains of experts who would testify that the percentage failure rate is sby danz76 - Main Forum
Its funny how it worked out. My wife (also a lawyer) was looking around for positions for herself because she was unhappy at her firm, and she kept seeing on the job board postings that bankruptcy lawyers like me were in high demand in South Florida. I looked into it, and found out that I could get a great position, avoid paying NYC city and state taxes, get an apartment on the beach with garagedby danz76 - Main Forum
Christmas day in South Beach. Mine is the green one. Its "twin" pulled up and parked in front of me just as I finished parking to go to Alton Road.by danz76 - Main Forum
I've looked into this for my '01 S and concluded that its a pretty big job best left to an experienced pro shop.by danz76 - Main Forum

I was told a replica. It was beautiful. And my wife and I are still shocked that we are wearing short sleeves in November.by danz76 - Main Forum

Just wondering if anyone else on the board attended this great event this past Sunday. I will try and post pics tonight.by danz76 - Main Forum
Or work harder. I liked the guy with the Charlotte-area waterfront house who parked a Ferrari in his man-cave.by danz76 - Main Forum
Hey Gundo, I met you at a tech event at your house a few years ago. Have since gotten married and moved to Miami Beach. Congrats on the very cute twins. Good to see you are still around and have the 911.by danz76 - Main Forum
Congrats on the Boxster, welcome back to the board and thanks for sharing the great pics.by danz76 - Main Forum
When people ask me why I moved this past July from NYC to Miami Beach, I am going to show them Pedro's post!by danz76 - Main Forum
That does it. Time to buy a Ferrari.by danz76 - Main Forum
I literally just got my car back from the shop (Vertext in Miami) for the same problem on my '01S. It was the expansion tank (small leak for some time), left radiator (hit an uneven construction related road surface a few weeks back) and oil separator (straw that broke the camel's back, I am guessing). Good luck.by danz76 - Main Forum
I do, but my old handle was daninnj. It's a good thing I got a new handle, since I recently moved to South Florida.by danz76 - Main Forum
Is anyone running the Schnell headers and exhaust that can send me a .wav file to danz76@yahoo.com? I want to get a deeper sound on my '01 S but don't want anything obtrusively loud. Thank you.by danz76 - Main Forum
Thank you Pedro! I loook forward to meeting you. I think we are aonly about 30-40 minutes from each other. Do you know a good shop that can install a new top for me? I want to upgrade to a glass window top. If you want to discuss off-line, please e-mail me at danz76@yahoo.com Thanks, Danby danz76 - Main Forum
So in the end I took all of your wise advice and put on 4 new Hankook Ventus V12 Evo tires, and boy am I pleased. I just came in from a pretty mean rainstorm, and the tires handled great, even though they have not been broken in yet. By the way, for those of you who I've met through the board, I'm sorry to tell you that my wife and I moved to Miami Beach about two weeks ago. I'll miss you guys!by danz76 - Main Forum
I should have been clearer. The Sport Contact 2 with the N2 designation is discontinued. I was wondering if I would suffer adverse consquences (other than differing tread depth) by putiing the Sport Contact 3 model on the rear, while keep the Sport Contact 2 in the front.by danz76 - Main Forum
