Cool Post your 968 Turbo-S pics!

Since we all love this car so much, post your pics of it!

I'm trying to find this one REALLY good one - a shot from the back left that I recently saw in a new Porsche book. Maybe one of you has it?!

I have one somewhere I took at a German car show in Cleveland. I was never able to confirm whether it was a genuine Turbo S. I heard from someone that it was a reproduction - albeit a very faithful one - done for some local pro sports player. I think it was dark blue in color. If I can find the picture I'll scan and post it.

Here are some Turbo RS photos, not quite what you are looking for but nice, nonetheless:

I saw two 968s at the local autoX yesterday. That brings my lifetime 968 spotting total up to 5! One of them was a DIY turbo. He had the fastest time in the first group.
Hopefully number six will be in my garage sometime in 2004.

Is the silver one above some sort of conversion? It looks like a 2.5 951 motor. Is that how they came from the factory? Doesnt seem quite right. That being said, if I had known they could look that good I would have bought one! I was never fond of the styling but that one is doing it for me.

Matt H,

Yes, that's how they come from the factory except it's a 3.0 litre engine - here are the specs 968 Turbo S
