Id strip naked and dry hump that car in the middle of Central Park. And I wouldnt care what became of it. On Rennlist, or in Prison.

Robert, sorry to drag up and old thread, do you have an email address I can contact you on to discuss something regarding Mr Willrett and Sonderwunsch? Thanks
Yes, it is genuine. Indeed, a few months ago, speaking with my friend, Rolf Sprenger, now retired, but long time head of Porsche's Special Works Department (a part of which is what is now called the Exclusive Department), Herr Sprenger remembered being interviewed for a magazine:
"In May 1990, the car was completed. The build sheet ran 32 pages....Sprenger recalled it all two years later. "He had so many special options and so many special things. My people really came in trouble. There was a lot of testing, engines, tires, suspensions, a great deal of testing....It is not something we would ever do again."
Sonder Alptraum. Special Nightmare.
But when it was finished, before it was shipped, Herr Rolf Sprenger and his colleagues took a last look. The special wish which had become a private nightmare had finally become the Porsche dream car-come-true. It was the most and the best of everything they'd ever imagined. Sonderwunsch. Sonder Alptraum.
Traumwagen in Wirklichkeit. Dream car in reality.
More than 300 individual pieces were covered in leather. More than 500 non-standard pieces were fitted. More than 200 pieces were custom fabricated."
And, in fact, I still know almost every person at the factory who worked on that car -- the last Turbo Cabriolet Flachbau ever made. In fact, a few years ago, upon the retirement of Herr Sprenger, a group of us got together and all still remembered fondly this car. And, now, sadly, two of them, Elmar Willrett and Max Friedmacher, have died.
