I prefer the wagon they made:



Or maybe this stunning 911 that DP produced:

I actually think parts of that car are quite well done. Others need a little updating to this century.

At the risk of branding myself as a tasteless hack, I'm with you, Pauly. I mean, it's gross... but it's gross in just the right way to be cool... If I ever had a car that color, I'd have a really hard time not putting orange wheels on it.. (probably not Fuchs though..)

I have my car in that colour, and you have no idea how much i want to paint my wheels red... the phone dials. i photo shopped it and it really does look good, it'll need an RS sticker on the side to complete the look but as my age (20) in Melbourne (Patrick and Bruce know what im talking about) I shouldn't be driving a flashy car that is boosted, let alone modded. as the rule is you're not allowed to drive a turbocharged or boosted (or v8+ & powerfull 6 like porsche & 370z ect) car for the first 4 years or loose 3 of your 5 points on your licence if caught.
So i just tell the police that it's a 944 n/a 2.5 and they sometimes ask if i have an intercooler, i just say it's an oil cooler because seriously, like they know how these motors work

Really?!? At what age are you eligible to get a driving license in AUS? I mean, I guess it's not the worst rule ever... I definitely had a lot of friends in high school who got things like GT Mustangs on their 16th birthday and then very nearly killed themselves, but 4 years? really?
