Guess it's my turn........


Would have liked to see this space filled up. It normally is.
But, as UD said, like "Gone In 60 Seconds", wouldn't this be a frightening sight to see?


My favorite (well, besides the obvious, CGT), the pearl white 993 with the infamous $10K factory paint..........


The 356 Limo...............


And, besides the CGT and 959, possibly the rarest car in captivity here, the ultra-rare Guards Red/Black combination 944............

Ah, yes......................that last pic is the best.

They didn't make many Guards Red 944's that vintage. Thank goodness it's an uber-rare "ClubSport" model.

he has posted only once that i know of. Mr D is just a philanthopist who loves porshes and volkswagons, and is a really cool down to earth guy. he has an event/car show every year where he encourages everyone to show off what they have, while he shows us his too (justy on display not competeing).

Dixon is amazing. He even completed a perfect replica of Tifos rig. Tifo walked up to it and actually thought it was his.

This was not the day I needed my camera batteries (+ backup batteries) to lose their charge. Next time I will doublecheck before leaving El Rancho UDPride. I dont think I came away with much so Im counting on all of you to post dem' pics big time.

My favorites on Dixons collection:

1. 959 -- Im old school. The thing is sick. Same color as my 951 too. And the despite being 16yrs old will run straight ******* next to a Carrera GT all day and night.

2. Pearlescent White 993TT. Wade mentioned the $10,000 paint to sample option, but I checked out the window sticker in his den while all of you were shoving down hot dogs and that awesome wood trim package inside it is an over $7000 option too. Best wood trim Ive ever seen from a factory. Those wheels painted to match are incredible. The car is just incredible. Im sure its the only one of itds kind anywhere.

3. Carrera GT. It is was it is. Even I could get coitus driving a car like that.

4. 911S. Silver. Factory plaid luggage in the back. Car is mint. Beyond mint. Old school. I bet this is Harrys favorite.

I tell you what that mint 928S4 didnt attract a lot of attention, but man was it hot. Mint of course. And a FIVE SPEED. Looked like it had never been sat in. God I want an S4 so bad.

Now back to all our witty bitty lives.

UD,

I agree on all counts.

I got to ride in #2 earlier this year. Woah.

The S4 is incredible. Every option I would want. Even the color and the 5-speed LSD trans. Every car in that collection is quality. It makes me want to make others wait in line behind me at the gas station while I buy lottery tickets.
