Default Easter Photo Shoot

Took advantage of a light Easter day to clean and wash the family. 6 hand wash and waxes.

All in town except RSR clone. A few weeks from completion.

Nice group of cars, but that blue 964 RS is very nice. My humble opinion.

Did you get an appointment at the chiropractor???

IMO this is THE BEST car collection. Congrats and enjoy them fully, don't just wash them.

Happy easter!!

Though, assuming there is a run after 2007, I am thinking of getting a GT3 RS, my heart is still with the 964, the last Porsche I bought and the last of the type of hand built vehicles with enduring charm.

Not looking to make any one jealous??? Just sharing my day. First time I had the opportunity to get all the cars out, cleaned and organized. I am sure plenty of people think the post is o.k. I promised a few buddies I would post some pictures when I get a chance.

To modest to start a thread like this??? So it is o.k. to start a thread if you only have one car??

Sorry to offend you guy. You call your self an addict. Seems like this would be good for your addiction.

RS 197: Tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth: Which one is your favorite?

There could be a pile of variations to this question:

Which one makes you feel the most cool when you drive it?
Which one makes you feel the most aggressive when you drive it?
Which one makes you feel the most conspicuous when you drive it?
Which one makes you feel like a Republican?
Which one makes you feel like a little girl (oops, I didn't see a Boxster)?

How about trying this another way: You are forced to get rid of all your p-cars except one. Which one would you keep, and why? You have 50 words or less to answer, and if you don't answer in a satisfactory manner, you have to give one of your cars to the person who contributes post #10 to this thread.

Thanks for the pics, love the line up.

I'm with mada1, we have to make a run down to your place to see your cars.

I see in the 993 thread that you were at the PCA DE at PIR on 3/27. Did my first DE that day, great time. Morgan (silver 964 C4, he's in Intermediate group) met up and had a great time. I had a bit of an off at Turn 3.....only damage was dirt and a little pride.

A beautiful collection, you lucky man. Thank you for sharing - it is good to know that there are serious enthusiasts who have the means to live their dreams. If there are others, please share too! I particularly like your 993RS and good taste with the 997 GT3 - I've just got back from the 'Ring and there were two 997 GT3 RS there, one green and one orange. Awesome!

If I had to keep one and I did not have to drive it every day, it would be my Viper green E. 2.7 RS spec. Short gears, The car is a rocket, light and a blast to drive.

If I had to drive it every day, it would be a toss up between the GT3, the 964 RS and the 993RS. Tough choice. It would come down to a coin flip.

If I had to only look at it it would be the 73 RS. I love that car but not worth flogging it like the others.

Thanks for all the kind words guy's. This board is one of the few places that appreciate the cars.

Any time you are in Salem OR. Please drop by, I have cold beer and plenty of things to talk about.
