John,
I'll keep making the calendars as long as I can sell most of them so I can at least get CLOSE to breaking even on them.
I just can't sell them here apparently or people get the panties in a wad and I get threatened with a ban! That is the only reason I have not brought it up. Despite the fact that any profits get donated to the local humane society. I guess we have many easily offended, dog/cat haters here on the 928 Forum. There was a guy on the 911 forum who sold his 911 calendar last year and didn't get banned (or even threatened with a ban). Oh well... Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Denny,
Printing is VERY expensive (even with help from my friends in the 928 hobby!) and when you factor in giving away a calendar to each model and the cost of the CD-ROM's for their pics and everything else that goes in to making a calendar that you would have to consider if you were actually going to make a living off of it, you would be lucky to make a profit at $20 each when printing 100 copies...
I do it for fun, and always have. Would be nice if it were seriously profitable, but it just isn't and like I said, it is not my living and I like to help the Humane Society when I can, this sometimes allows me to do that, at least a little bit.

I do have a few left overs from years past... I'd have to go back and look see how many. I let them go for less than my cost on the '11 or older at $5 each and for the '12 I have been selling them at my cost of $10 and of course the '13's are $20.
Let me know what you are looking for and how many and I'll see what I can come up with for you.

I took the liberty of misusing my personal top 13 from the Fikse-wheels photocontest to create my own Porsche calendar. Cost about EUR 15 excl p&p. Sorry if I breached some copyrights. It is only one calendar for personal use. But if anyone is interested...
