Default 968 goodness

Recently bought a 968 cab for my dad from an RL'er.

Could not be happier.

Recently bought an 8,000 mile 968 for my showroom, could not be more impressed with the condition of the car.

Hope we can keep it for a while.

Is that Raj Datta's Cab?

Both cars look incredible.

Congrats. That is probably the most coveted 968 coupe in NA. We (the forum community) had assumed that is was in a collection never to leave.

Both of those are fantastic examples! Well done.

What's the story with the yellow one? Did it come from the factory with those options?

Every time I see that color combination 968 cab it reminds me of Dupont registry. They used to run a magazine ad in the 90's that had that car in it. I wish I could find a picture of it, but I'm sure they are all long gone. Great couple of front engine water pumpers you have there. It's good to see you on this side of the forum CJ.

Nice. The cab's LR ride height seems off, BTW. Or maybe it just seems so from the pics.
