St. Anger has one love = Porsche
how ever he has room for a mistress, historically she has been a = BMW
Both makes are known for their reliability, and sportiness. Since he is looking for a car for a short-term, until he decides on his final replacement, he is "maybe considering something more fun and less practical.
It wont be a porsche, but maybe a BMW? hmmmmm z4? hmmm 6 series? hmmm
nah I think it will be something totally different, and yet it will have to combine the reliability of a porsche and BMW ( I am out on a limb here)
my tip
Wiesmann Roadster. (because it contains a BMW powerplant)

Z4 definitely not since I don't think he wants two of them
Anyway I wonder if he really wants to tell us before the car will actually be in his hands

lol, well, why not two of them, "my" Z4 is now my wife´s car i haven´t seen it the whole summer...
6series...well, again i had a quick look on it, some weeks ago when i fixed everything at my dealer, at first i thought that this would be the replacement but after thinking it over i´m not quite sure any more...there´re some reasons...
i can tell you right away, no problem, but i find it quite interesting what ppl are guessing...

yeah so did I!
BTW I'm surprised that you, esecially since you work for Porsche, would be driving a BMW..
Hmm I 'm very curious to know what your new car will be everything I can think of has already been guessed...

Just because, knowing as much as you do about Porsche and as much as you love them it just surprises me that your wife would drive a Z4 and you a 745Li..I mean I know you drive them all day and I can understand how you would want a long distance cruiser..and I would have thought that you would get some kind of a discount on all Porsches since you work for them, and not only that it would be easier to service the cars..ect..or like for instance my cousin works for Ford, and he and his family all drive Fords, the newer models though, they drive them for like three months and then give them back to the company and they then sell them a fraction lower than the list price..

lol, i expected such an answer
no, just to let u know, private i´m not into cars that much, i think i´ve said that several times b4, i´ve some other hobbys as well, and they are ALL non car related, you know when you´ve to deal with cars, and like me with Porsches, sometimes 50 to 70 hours a week, you´re more than happy to have some other things in life and not just only cars, so we don´t see a reason why to buy e.g. a Carrera, i mean i need (now needed) a comfortable relaxing car just for autobahn from austria to germany and to tell you, i always had BMW´s they are IMO the best cars for my purpose, and untill the 955 came up there were no alternatives, sure we get the Porsches quite below the dealer price but i never felt that i needed a Porsche for private use too, i have them at work and that´s more than enough for me, on the other hand i couldn´t enjoy such a car on public street anyways, i just need something practical, that´s it...
and my wife is a completely different story, for her everything with the Porsche badge on it is just for showing off
so she really isn´t into Porsche, well she isn´t into cars in general, it just has to look nice.....women i guess
nevertheless, one garage in our house is still free....maybe for a Porsche, maybe for something else, maybe not this year, .... well who knows, i already have something in mind but it´s a bit too early to tell...
so, in the end, i don´t give a shit if it´s a Porsche in my garage or not, i probably can afford any Porsche of the current line up - but i don´t need one
