This guy gets car after car after car for one reason.

Remember it's the holidays so I am being nice. I can't complete the post.
Anyone else looking forward to Mark going apeshit after the holidays?

dntlvet is an unknown quantity at this point
I've driven 996 GT2 and the 997.2 GT3.
I like them both and they drive very differently as others have posted.
