Default OT: What is on your p-car Christmas list?

Well, only 44 days until Christmas (but that might change tomorrow....) so I'm curious as to what is on other people's Christmas lists -- partly because I'm looking for ideas for myself.

So far on my list:

1. crowfoot wrenches
2. flare wrenches
3. DeWalt cordless torque wrench
4. Pagid yellow pads
5. Dansk high-flow cat.
6. DAS roll-bar

So, what are you guys/gals hoping to get from Santa?

Marc
edit: this is what I'm hoping to get from my wife/Santa - I won't necessarily get it all.

I'm foregoing the Christmas present this year because new wheels are on the list for spring. I'll be saving my money for that.

I'm getting married on New Year's Eve, so I'm not hoping for too much for Christmas, mostly just saving money for the wedding. However, I am secretly hoping that my fiancee will get me her step-dad's 71 911T as a wedding gift.

My list:

1. Big Reds F+R
2. 18" Porsche Speedline 3-piece wheels
3. Recaro Pole Positions (BLK leather)
4. Role Bar/Cage
5. Brake Duct fog light replacements -much cheaper than #s 1-4
6. 3.8 conversion or Supercharger
7. Snap-on 3/8" Torque wrench
8. Momo steering wheel
9. Window tint - blk on blk is going to get hot in the summer
10. RSR 3.8

I know I'll think of more...I always do.

Marc S,...."Wheels for Xmas"…..That sounds good, why don’t we cut a disc, become overnight billionaires, show our “Cribs and Rides on MTV”, then, buy that 1.2 million dollar Porsche that’s for sale, go to Le Mans, race and win of course out right, then, retire to our privately owned islands in the Caribbean, and on our privately owned race tracks, zooommm around all day in our, "remember when", 964’s, with all the new friends we'll have !!...Let's see now, ..."Oh, shinny FISKE’s, are burning tonight",..." I hope they don't scratch and fit right",... What do you think, I like the beat ?... And if that’s asking too much ??,... I'll go for new wheels, yeah, that's a gift to my 964 for Xmas !!, (if my wife let's me), all the best,.... Marc A.

All I want for xmas is tires; took my RR off yesterday during G-pipe excursion and found I'm down to slicks. Do I dare start the great tire debate?

Santa is done bringing car presents for Christmas, unfortunately... I go through cars too fast, I guess. :-(
I would REALLY like to see a Valentine1 in my stocking, though...

Congrats Brian! I wish you luck getting the '71 911T, their my favorite!



PS - For X'mas I wish for some Smart Racing sway bars, Elephant Racing bushings, Sanders T-Bars, and a 3.0 motor with PMO Carbs. I don't think that's too much to ask .

A new top of the line refrigerator, stove, microwave, and plasma TV for my girlfriend so I can get another year or two of modifying my C4 without dirty looks. Maybe I can also sneak in an aero kit and Biltein PSS9 suspension upgrade.

I think I am going to give this year a miss, but for *next* Christmas I would hope to take the project further. Its a bit like Formula 1 right? You have to keep the development going...
