Shame on y'all!!! 8) A bit flamboyant for my taste, especially in solid red, but still a real (copy of a) Porsche racer, _not_ a ricer. The angle of the top photo may exaggerate the relative size of the rear wing, but if it's an accurate copy mechanically, it's the real schitze.... Time for some of you young'uns to either get to bed earlier, or spend more time in study hall with your Porsche history books.

At least it doesn't have big Porsche stickers all over it.

 

Dave951,

Are you home yet, or still on the road? Just wondering, as I haven't heard anything.

Icat, Yeah that is the famous "Moby Dick". I like the replica, I wouldn't drive it, but it looks nicely done.

 

I actually think the replica is BETTER looking than it's racing counter part. But the 935 was never one of my favorites. Now a street 962, that's the stuff dreams are made of!

If you like 935's, that is a helluva replica.

Oh, that's not "Moby Dick". Both were 935's but Moby had a much longer tail section. I would try to dig up a pic, but I'm sure someone will beat me to it.

 

Yeah, i'm quick on the draw today, slow day at work

now that's a whale tail! Looks neat

 

I think moby dick was slightly longer. Colours are diff too. Anyways I love that car. Looks great from the pics I can see.

Slow day here too. If it doesn't pick up soon I'll be at Danno's post count.

Isn't that thing hideous!
