Wow. Are there any original parts on that car? If there are, I don't see them. Everything looks brand new!
Interior's not really my style, but I've never seen so much carbon fiber in my life! I'll bet that thing weighs less than I do now! The luggage compartment looks like something out of Knight Rider. What do you plan to do with this piece of art, Robert?

It looks awesome, but if you take all the rubber hoses out from the front trunk, it won't have that authentic 964 "odor"......

What rubber hoses? To be serious for a moment, the hoses are PTFE with a Kevlar jacket. Also, the battery cable is aluminum as is the cable to the starter and alternator.

You know Robert, now you need to make yourself a carbon fiber suit so you will match the car. Either that or a turquoise and purple one...
That car is just incredible.

Thank you. The thanks for the color goes not to me, however, but to Harm Lagaay, recently retired as Chief Stylist of Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG.

Absolutely wonderful! I am in awe --

I had always assumed you were building the car for track -- now, my guess is that it's to be a show car.

Your attention to detail is wonderful.
