Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion
I could use the front door and save the wear and tear on the garage door, but not catching a glimpse of my 996 every morning is ridiculous.
Leading evidence: 'Use front door and save the wear and tear' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use front door and save the wear and tear' (1 discussions).

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Read the article the other day and thought the same thing...I still find myself finding extra reasons to go to the garage just to look at her...the line are absolutely flawless, and I have wanted one of these cars since I was 8...we are lucky indeed!
Very cool Gonzo, thanks for posting!!!
"The 911 is sex, speed...everything a guy might want." I think that sums it up pretty nicely.
Probably why I spend so much time "in" mine!!!
I leave everyday to work through the garage just to catch a glimpse of my 996. I could use the front door and save the wear and tear on the garage door, but not catching a glimpse of my 996 every morning is ridiculous. Being fortunate is an understatement.
I washed her this weekend and was thinking the same thing. Every man walking with their dog whether by himself, with his wife or girlfriend.."Nice car".."Now that's what I want"... "Well keep dreaming..", all sorts of comments like that. For a 10 year old car, for chrissakes! Love it.
I think the article said in no particular order.
A few weeks ago, I was eating lunch at a little grill and could see my car from where I was sitting. A new Z06 parked next to me. As I was watching, every guy that walked by glanced at the Z06 and then gave my 8 year old 911TT a long hard look.
People who don't know Porsches can't tell the difference between 996's, 997's, and 991's if you ask them. People who do can appreciate a 911 regardless of the generation.
I'll take the thought one step further. The reason we all wanted a 911 since we were 8 or 18 or 28, is that they all look a little and drive a little like the racing model that won LeMans, or slaughtered the ALMS or Grand Am GT field, or that still soldier on in SCAA or SVRA nearly 50 years on.
There are people at Porsche that understand this (the family members certainly did) but when I look at the Cayman and Panamera models there must also be many that have no idea what I am saying.
That worries me.
I find it neat that half of the 'generic' toy cars my two-year-old has are basically a 911. Same for cartoons, etc. Such an iconic shape. Unmistakable.
