Sharp looking car...

Aren't you the guy who does the drifting on Youtube?

How are you doing that? Is it because your car is supercharged? Is the front end pulling at all or is all the power going through rear tires?

I would love to drift my C4 like that but would be afraid of messing up the all-wheel-drive system...

And give us your wheel size/tire/shocks etc set up, please.

Great look! I like that your rockers are painted--helps the look of the stance, perhaps.

Nice car! I've only seen 3 Porsches in Iceland, one a 964. Your car makes four. Are there many more?

Interesting. I kept my eyes open during my recent vacation there. Wish I saw more P-cars there, especially your car!

...not gonna give the goods on how to drift a C4....okay...

Looks like you've got a lot of negative camber on the front wheels. Is that just an optical illusion?
