Default Pics of my new Big Reds

Oh - and they came attached to a car.

It's a 2002 model - which is slightly older than I intended, since I was originally browsing cars from 2003. But it's one owner, absolutely outstanding condition and only has 20,500 miles on the clock.

I also wasn't considering a red car, and only really wanted black - but I fell in love with this colour when I saw it.

I collect it on Tuesday. It replaces my daily driver (Supra) - the 964 remains as a weekend toy.

Orient Red Metallic. It's a lovely colour in the flesh.

I'm not usually a 996 fan - but that's gorgeous! Nice score - and I love that it's your "beater" and the 964 remains "special".

Nice score - well done.

Dave,

Congratulations!
You deserve it - if for nothing else but that arm out the window comment.

Still laughing. :-)

I know what you mean - 993s and 997s are prettier in my opinion. But 993TTs are silly prices for their age, and 997 TTs are still silly prices (I couldn't really justify buying something that has £30k depreciation left). One of the reasons I fell in love with this example is because it just looks right - colour suits it I guess.

beautiful color. Consider yourself lucky it isnt a black car. Mine looks great when its clean but that isnt very often
A 964 and a 996TT make a great pair to have in the garage

Great car but you MUST lower that front end to at least the Euro spec;-)
