I miss my 931. I certainly wish I would have had those sexy euro bumpers. Why on earth would you volunteer to change that turbo.. I mean I had it down to like 7 hrs, r/r, but still. icky

Took me three months
took it out, left the car on the lift, and just installed a new one last week

Absolutely awesome photos! Best 931 I have seen! Altho you may want a little wider tire on there...

That car looks glorious. I'm scared to ask how much that paint job cost.
