    After looking through big detailed pictures of this car, I can't learn to love it. The Maser Quattroporte is a much prettier four door exoticar, and BMW has the profile just right. This thing is like a squat Cayenne. Damn Porsche, why do you make me sad like this?

    Why all the hassle?


    College pranksters used to do stuff like disassemble the dean's car and rebuild it in the dean's office all the time in the 1960's.

    @OMG! Ponies!: Sadly they applied that principle to the first form of transportation they wanted to try out on the 94th floor. The horse did not seem to be receptive to the idea. The re-assembly had a success rate equal to Senator John "Bluto" Blutarsky's GPA at Faber.

    I bet that car dealer is really pissed he offered free delivery with the purchase of any new car. On the plus side, the guy bought the rust coating and the dealer floor mats.

    Why do people get so touchy when it comes to Google Street View and Google Earth? First of all, it's in the public where everybody else is seeing you. And really, what are the chances of Google capturing you on cam? And even if they did acquire a picture of you, what's the odds of that picture being unflattering? Plus, they blur faces. What more can you ask for?

    It was my understanding that prototypes taken out for a spin are often wrapped up to hide their notable features.


    Anyway, this looks like it's just a Cayman. Seen several on the street already. Besides, who would test drive prototypes where spy cars can get pics so easily?

    @Jon B.:


    People seeing you on the street is one thing, but when you are seen by a camera and nearly everyone on earth can look at you doing whatever weird crap your doing that would be invasion of privacy


    I'm all for Street View and frankly all the strange things it captures is hilarious, I was just defending someone else's point because you are both so eager to jump on someone.

    @Nick Jones: Actually, I am seen by 4 cameras everyday, and anyone with an internet connection can see whatever weird crap I'm doing. Such as:

    getting ready to go out;



    getting out of the shower;

    Getting out of shower

    the Macarena;


    So I will admit I'm kind of biased when it comes to privacy issues. :)

    @iwishiwasamime: B/c in "public", your expectation of privacy is "zero". In your "home", your expectation of privacy is nearly 100%, which is why if someone was peeking in, it would violate the laws in many states.


    Disclosure: I live in a house with multiple webcams set up inside, so my feelings on cams is skewed.

    "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects..."


    Not explicit enough for you or just ignorant? Of course it doesn't apply in public, if you leave your wang hanging out of your pants of course everyone is free to stare at you. However there are laws against using someone's image commercially, so if I were publish your wang on my filthy public wangs pay-site I'd need to get you to sign a release.

    @PittsburghEatsOhioFarts: As long as you can't identify pwdrskier's by his wang, you wouldn't need a release. That's why TV stations use that shot where you see people on a street walking, but don't see their face. No need for a release. It's called B-roll.

    In reply to Porsche P'9522 Cellphone Lacks 3G, Has GPS For Navigating Your Porsche
    The spokesman for the Porsche Phone design team has gone on record as saying: "Not only is the 911 faster dan that jap-crap GT-R, but so is our new phon. Da phone is also faster dan the iPhone and G1. Porsche only makes the fastest things on the planet, we are presently prepping a final production version of our phone for time trials on da Nürburgring. We suspect that the times that the iPhone turned in last year were the result of Apple using non-sanctioned "racing style" 3G radios that were not included in the production version of the iPhone 3G...
