Not bad, there are some nice shots in there. You might want to take out the one where the dent in the front fender is obvious.

Looks like a pretty decent photographer. Takes advantage of the natural lighting situations.

Who says Porsche is less than BMW(in the link). However the curves of the car are brought out nice.

Nice car! I loved that location with all the narrow arches. I think 924s look really great from the rear hipline looking forward - it shows off the original curves. Also, I never knew those round reflectors actually light up - cool!

I wouldn't show so many pics of the emblem, since your emblem gasket is all shrinking and misaligned.

theres a couple where the dent is obvious, cant really get around that, and i was gonna ask about the emblem gasket. can i just pull it back on without ripping anything off? honestly, i just noticed the gasket after looking at the pic.

FRporscheman- the place with the arches is at a nearby college. we were just cruising around, i saw that and just had to make a snap u-turn

whalebird- my friend said that. the same one who took the pics and made the vid. he drives a bmw. we just joke with each other like that, not to be taken seriousley.

but he is an awesome photographer. he was using a 8 megapixle camera (that just happened to be acting weird that day)

so general consensus, everybody like?

I doubt you could stretch the old gasket back in place. Plus a new gasket by itself is only about $3.

ok ill get a new one, but for the time being that shouldnt cause any problems right? water getting under it, rusting, the emblem flying off on the highway and landing upside down on the windshield?

Thats cool about the BMW and all. I have owned 4 BMWs and loved them. I hesitate to say one is better than the other though. I do think Mercedes Benz is the finest engineered car in the world without a doubt. Am I getting into trouble here....
