the beauty is more than skin deep. Peel the sheet metal off of that birdcage you painted TMS...might be a bigger challenge to render with paint.
That is amazing. Just the time involved in something like that must be staggering. Yes, the birdcage would be tough to do. I had a little taste of it in the painting I did up by the windshield

I like a lot of the ones you all listed, but I will throw in the '94 911 Turbo. Best looking street 911 IMHO.

Back to the thread. I'm not all that big on styling. Function over form for me.
I hope they do sell. I would like to think at that level($$$)Erik could name his price and get it. Plus, it's a pleasure for some of us dreamers just to see them go around the track.

I agree...but my all time favorite is the 79-89 911 turbo (930).

Took this cell phone pic through the glass of a 959 in the service bay at the Las Vegas Porsche Dealer around Christmas of '10... Amazing to see it from below... One of the finest looking cars that I have ever seen.

If I could have one Porsche in my man cave to gaze longingly at, it would be a 904. Preferably one of the later 904/6 versions.

Love the whitewalls there Muss, it's like the "Pat Boone" of Porsches.
