How safe is a 996 911? I know it’s an old car but Porsche usually seems ahead of the curve safety wise. Worth getting a 997 or ‘08ish cayman for added safety?

They are all safe, don’t worry about it get the one you like

They're safe cars. Obviously they won't have back up cameras and lane departure warning and the newer features but in an accident you'd be okay. You won't really get those features until you get to a 991 911, which would be about 2x in price

Safety is fine, but I would be more worried about the IMS bearing blowing up on me. Go 997. Better looking car anyway.

The cars are safe. If you love the drive, they make great cars. If you want a backup camera, you can always look to install an aftermarket one.

Hello,

Anyone here from merchant portal team from TSYS.
I am planning to join tsys in next week, can someone give some insight about this unit in tsys.

I finally broke down and went back on HRT last week. I have been taking gabapentin for a nerve injury which I’ve learned helps hot flashes. I can’t tell a significant difference yet aside from maybe getting a little better sleep. I saw a new doctor (male) to get my prescription refilled and he seems to have a different philosophy than my last doctor (female). He wants me to be on HRT until 51, but after that he doesn’t recommend it. I hope by that age I’ll be off the gabapentin…

Any comments monthly in hand ? no tax savings.

About to give a go at negotiating a price for a used ‘21 Mercedes’ GLE 350 - 7k miles. I know it’s a tough buyers market but any tips on ways to negotiate? Dealer is 100 miles away and priced competitively at $64k but another dealer is 200 miles away and priced at $60k. Features are about the same but the more expensive option has nicer wheels so maybe that’s worth ~$2k. TIA
