Anyone else get banned from the G8X section for making fun of its looks?

I think I would do it just to amuse you.

I admittedly did look for Porsche driving gloves since I always drive with BMW ///M gloves (...which are very well made & stylish I might add). I didn't like the Porsche gloves, so I guess I'll be driving my Carrera while wearing ///M gloves?!?!?

That's awesome lol.

I thought I remembered him saying he rocks a fanny-pack. All that's needed is some all white Skechers and dad mode would be fully engaged.

I have a sling bag I carry, but that's because I'm always armed and I keep a knife, extra 15-round mags, a Streamlight, a set of cuffs, etc. with me at all times when I'm off duty.

... driving gloves?

P.s. why spend hundreds (don’t tell me it’s thousands) on a RaceTex steering wheel if you wear driving gloves? Just get gloves with Alcantara palm pads!

JN1 · 05-09-2021, 12:12 AM

I had coding done on my F80 that would close the mirrors automatically when you locked the doors. I wish all cars had that option.

If you are worried about buy out, I would see if your dealership is willing to disclose what is the MSRP for the Carrera S when it comes to subsidized cost or at least don't jump over that price in a huge way.

Unless you already know

I'm sure he'd tell me. Since this Porsche hook-up is a good friend of a good friend, I think he'll do everything within his control to make sure I leave that dealer in the best possible position.

Oh for sure.

The buyout matters a lot if you go over that price because it will jump significantly and it will not be worth it to lease at that point as your buyout will basically be the same as your finance.

If he says the MSRP has to be under 130k to be worth leasing, you basically have no choice to keep it under that price point if you are going to lease.

I like that I have to hold the lock button or the comfort access for a few seconds because I don't always want the mirrors to go in but it's cool you can code and customize it

Same here. Don't need them folded all the time.

I'm a strong advocate for driving gloves. Always wrap it up, guys. 😎

I feel that driving becomes more of an occasion with them; turn the engine on, buckle up, put gloves on and it's like, "okay, time to concentrate." And helps keep my Alcantara clean.

The M gloves are great quality for the price. Got the Sparcos this year for the track to have more grip.

I know you're armed, was more poking fun. I had a quick draw fanny-pack I wore for a hot second, couldn't stick with though lol.

Sling bags are a better, and more socially acceptable, alternative for sure.

Those are clean. I think I still have 3 more pair of unused ///M gloves. Lol! I stocked up.

I don't carry anymore. My CCW expired and I've been too lazy/busy to renew it. I'll get it back though, times being what they are.

I used a clip draw. Tried a concealed holster but that was too bulky.

The fanny was definitely more comfortable, just too strong of a dork factor for me. My wife even made fun of me and she knew I was armed.

Sweet! I'm a huge advocate for CCW's. ClipDraw is a good option as are minimalist design trigger guard holsters.
