			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_4818" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 550px"><a href="http://www.essentialstyleformen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/bad_boys_porsche.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4818 " title="bad_boys_porsche" src="http://www.essentialstyleformen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/bad_boys_porsche.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="307" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Yep, that IS B movie queen Lisa Boyle.</p></div>
<p>For anyone that saw the movie <em>Bad Boys</em>, you know this car.  Built in 1994, the Porsche 964 Turbo 3.6 could go from 0-60 in 3.4 seconds, had a top speed of 174 mph and is extremely rare (there were only 63 built at the time).</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a little excerpt about the Porsche 964 from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche_964" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a>:</p>
<p><em>The 964 was considered over 85% new as compared over its predecessor, the Carrera 3.2. The first 964s available in 1989 were all wheel drive equipped &#8220;Carrera 4&#8243; models; Porsche added the rear wheel drive Carrera 2 variant to the range in 1990. Both variants were available as a coupe, Targa or Cabriolet. The 964 Carrera was the last generation sold with the traditional removable Targa roof. Later evolutions of the Targa, starting with the 993 generation, replaced that setup with a complex glass-roof &#8220;greenhouse&#8221; system. A new naturally-aspirated engine called the M64 was used for 964 models, with a flat-6 displacement of 3.6 litres. Porsche largely revised the suspension replacing the rear torsion bars with coil springs and shock absorbers.  Power steering and ABS brakes arrive to the 911 for the first time and they were both made standard. The exterior bumpers and fog lamps became flush into the car, allowing for better aerodynamics. A new electric rear spoiler raised as speeds above 50 MPH and lowered down flush with the rear engine lid at lower speeds or when stopped. A revised interior featured standard dual airbags beginning in 1990 for all North American production cars. A new automatic climate control system provided superior heating and cooling. Revised instrumentation housed a large set of warning lights that were tied into the car&#8217;s central warning system which alerted the driver to a possible problem or malfunction.</em></p>
<div id="attachment_4819" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 550px"><a href="http://www.essentialstyleformen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/bad_boys_porsche1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4819 " title="bad_boys_porsche1" src="http://www.essentialstyleformen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/bad_boys_porsche1.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="275" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">I think I would take mine in black.</p></div>
<p>The Turbos that were produced in 1994 were the last of the 964&#8242;s produced and were transferred to Porsche Exclusiv to create a very special Turbo 3.6s &#8211; the one used in the movie.</p>
<p>I did a little research on the car today to see how much it costs.  For anyone who owns one and takes good care of it, it looks like <a href="http://dealerrevs.com/car/12262833" target="_blank">you can sell it today for about $150,000</a>.  Not a bad investment.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not sure if I would sell mine if I owned one though.</p>

My name is Miike Looowery.</p></div>
<p>I think one of the qualifications for an ESM Icon is if Lil&#8217; Wayne compares himself to you in his songs:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>But I would like for u to pay me by the hOUr<br />
And I&#8217;d rather be pushin flowers<br />
Then to be in the pen sharin showers<br />
Tony told us this world was ours<br />
And the bible told us every girl was sour<br />
Don&#8217;t play in her garden and don&#8217;t smell her flower<br />
Call me Mr. Carter or Mr. Lawn Mower<br />
Boy I got so many bitches like I&#8217;m Mike Lowry<br />
(From A Milli by Lil&#8217; Wayne)</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">If you haven&#8217;t seen the movies <em>Bad Boys</em>  and <em>Bad Boys </em>II, Mike Lowery is one of the main characters played by Will Smith. </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A rich kid turned narcotics police officer, Mike Lowery was well dressed (well, for his time at least), badass, got the hottest girls and drove the best exotics.  Too bad he couldn&#8217;t be himself throughout half of the first movie as part of the plot.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">One of my favorite scenes from the movie <em>Bad Boys</em> is at the beginning when Mike Lowery and his partner, Marcus Burnett are driving around in a Porsche:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong><em>Marcus Burnett</em></strong><em>: Hey man where-where-where&#8217;s your cup holder?<br />
<strong>Mike Lowrey</strong>: I don&#8217;t have one.<br />
<strong>Marcus Burnett</strong>: What the f- w&#8217;you mean you don&#8217;t have one? Eighty thousand dollars for this car and you ain&#8217;t got no damn cup holder?<br />
<strong>Mike Lowrey</strong>: It&#8217;s $105,000 and this happens to be one of the fastest production cars on the planet. Zero to sixty in four seconds, sweetie. It&#8217;s a limited edition.<br />
<strong>Marcus Burnett</strong>: You damn right it&#8217;s limited. No cup holder, no back seat. Just a shiny dick with two chairs in it. I guess we the balls just draggin&#8217; the fuck along.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">For more information about Mike Lowery and the movie <em>Bad Boys</em>, check out their <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112442/" target="_blank">IMDB</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bad_Boys_(1995_film)" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a> entries.</p>
