Default Sorta OT : My car is lonely, help me buy this companion for it!

Omigosh this thing is so beautiful! Wish I could justify spending this much on a toy but the financee doesn't seem so enthused about the idea

So does anyone want to contribute to my 964 Turbo fund?

Wow, sure is.

If I didn't have a "NEW MOTORCYCLE FUND" I'd chip in!

964 turbos are fun. I will get myself a 993 turbo at some point. I saw a maroon one on campus today when I was at the Union. There is also a yellow one that hangs out in marion county (ocala) which is 40 minutes south of gainesville.

The '94 models are a bunch of fun, went from 3.3 to 3.6, and had the 18" Speedline wheels. They really haul once you put a GHL exhaust and a big turbo on it.

Well I'm putting a little fund together to purchase something like this in the future. I wouldn't want to finance it all since there are always some repairs that need to be made!

blgdaddy - I know what you mean about pictures not always representing the vehicles correctly. A friend of mine just ordered a car from a dealership sight unseen and found that there were some door dings on the body that he couldn't see from the pictures. He's bummed about it but if you expand and analyze the photos, you will see that they really are there.

If went for something like this I would definately fly there and try the car out before even thinking about it.
