Default Dark Knight -my GT3 and Porsche post

Ok, so I will post here about my GT3 and Porsche stuff, I'll try to update it regularly, be forewarned I say what I think. If you love Porsche you will see some things here Ive collected over the years that you will never see anywhere else…..

My GT3, sitting for the winter, I tried about a month ago to self install Xpel on my own, I got it from a great place and he even sent me scraps to practice on, I figured I could do it because I build model cars, it didn't work out so well, my suggestions that unless you've done it before, don't try, and I may try again later…also I believe it didn't work out because my garage was too cold for the material to be flexible, so do not try this unless your garage is 70 degrees or more

some metal car paperweights etc the 996 and 993 are silver…doubt you've seen or heard of these

Porsche must have been giving out those paperweights as promotional gifts for quite a while. I was given a couple in the last year; one for the 911 TT and one for the Macan Turbo.

I did notice. Nice. But the Panny and 918 appear similar to the ones that I have.

so the odd car is the new NSX, the 993 and 996 are silver, on the bottom they carry a Ferdinand Porsche signature and 925 sterling, they are given to employees as retirement gifts is the story I was told, 993 The 996 on a clear plastic stand only with a cover

Yea, pretty standard stuff. I have a sterling silver pre-A 356 speedster signed by Ferry himself, it's in a box with a bunch of sterling silver and 24k gold models of cars Porsche never even produced, all signed-engraved by Walter Rorhl.. I'll go dig up the box in the back of my junk room in the house.
