If they read your thread they would laugh their asses off at how you cant spell Porsche, even though you tried three times...:D

I'm sorry, but I'm failing to see the significance of this thread. Please elaborate on your experience, or at least make it a little more interesting. A luggage rack on a sports car:whocares: Maybe he goes skiing with it? Now if it was mounted on the hood.... then that would be funny.

Hurry up and post pics!:thumbsup:
A Porsche is not one of those luggage rack kind of cars (not that any car is). If you need versatility and storage space in your car, don't buy a porsche.

Isn't this the exact reason why the Porsche Cayenne is on the market?

Lots of Z3, Z4, Boxster .. with Luggage rack .. what's wrong is it ? it is very common in Europe :confused:

If we laugh at sport car with luggage rack, just like European laugh at SUV ....

I agree that a Porsche or BMW etc, they don't look good with luggage racks, however, those luggage racks are removable, and better then buy another car for luggage, right ? :)

Just as gay as you people with SUV's that never go off road. "if you wanted a car, why don't you buy a car" Same shit, different pile.

I know that :tongue: I was just making a comparison to the comments both being stupid :)

FWIW, the fiat and mg roadsters from the seventies and eighties all had factory luggage racks and they weren't that bad...

And to all you people doubting the point.. You dont put a luggage rack on a tiny ass sports car.. thats what your other car(escalade) is for!!

What's wrong with driving a porsche in the winter? luggage racks add a nice retro look, not my favourite item but to each his own

Nothing wrong with a roof rack on a sports car. Sometimes it even looks good. If it came from the Porsche factory, it probably does look good :D

Just wait till tomorrow.

Anyways, i don't see a problem with it...Until you can afford a Boxster, don't hate on him just cause he had a luggage rack on it...
Who gives a fuck, is it your car? No.

:thumbsup: good word ! yes ! I am sure when someone driving a $70K plus car, and a $2K luggage rack ... he doesn't care people laugh (jealous) at him ! :dunno:

I saw a yellow 996 911 w/ a roof rack near marda loop last week. I stifled a giggle.

i agree with all the positive comment. to some it may be a high price unattainable car to others it may just be a daily driver

JusinL,

No way that guy's a real enthusiast, according to blueripper an enthusiast would have a truck and trailer for his race car and tires...:rolleyes:
