Talking Wild 944 GTS Amphibian Model!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=6040639881

How wild is that? I've never seen one of these before, it says it even comes with flotation tires! I'd love to win it but I predict a bidding war.


(I wanted you all to see it, even at the risk of offending someone who wanted to win it cheap but hasn't been on the site for a month)

So that's what happens when you put early rims on a late car...

my car ran early PD in the rear for about 1.5 years before I figured out what was wrong. It looked right.... to tell the truth.

Damnit, I wish people would let ebay host their pictures so that we could still see them when their remote server craps out.
