I've seen pictures of these. I assume they are custom jobs?

That car came out fantastic! I love it, and I'm not a cab guy at all.

IMO, 964 Speedster parts are works of art that naturally accentuate 993s.

John-- ^^ Thank you, kind sir!

More art to share:
RLer eShaun's photography with RLer AlpinaDvl's black 993.
Shaun's artwork garnered the cover & centerfold of this month's 9 Magazine.

The red jalopy's also managed feature articles in Total 911 and Excellence magazines

Hi all,

whats with the Japanese and the Tip Speedsters? Seems like most of them went there that way?
This is the fifth one I have seen in a Tiptronic.....
Hey Jäger, did you get any extra copies of them magazines by any chance? I bet the circulation skyrocketed with such a cover page ;-)

Woudn't mind to get my hands on a few magazines featureing your beauty.

Seem to be impossible to get down under....

Best regards

Marty

Marty-- Always great to hear from ya!

You & I've been bit hard by the 'Speedster bug,' so hope I can help a brother out.
After trying to order direct (using the following hyperlinks), or search eBay, etc., let me know if you need me to buy some & ship to you.


9 Magazine's Feb 2011 issue:
Their individual copies sell for 40% of the subscription price in the US; may make more sense to order a year.
9 Mag's editor offered to start subscriptions off with this (Feb) issue, but best to try to spell that out if you subscribe.




Excellence issue #181 April 2010:




Alas, UK's Total 911 issue 57 appears sold out on their website.
Check for a PM I just sent you with a link to a new one that appears for sale elsewhere.

John-- Glad you like the ladies!

Although still manually-operated, the 997's clamshell operation & ragtop are totally re-engineered from the ground up

...or should that be 'from the top down?'
