Well, I thought about that, but decided only to write about the 911 Turbo.

Porsche Zentrum Berlin-Potsdam had a classic-Porsche day the last year. And I met a guy from Berlin with a original 959 S - a fascinating car! It was a lot of fun to drive behind that car (in my 964 Speedster). I often saw fire in the exhaust, really cool

Got the book - looks great - thanks!

My right side rear bumper has paint bubbles from heat burns. Many on this forum shoot flames on a regular basis .... from their exhausts that is

Fine! I hope you´ll like it! I´m quite happy that the package cars from 1994 got an own section in the statistics-part - thank you to Norbert Franz for that!

I´ll have to check the 959 s from Hartmut, if he also has paint bubbles...

Norbert has the best option decoder I have ever seen for any Porsche series and has been a very helpful contributor to both of my websites

But I also think that we can see the correct numbers of pieces for the first time!

Yes, if you give the information that you want a signature and the name of the person that the signature should go to!

thank you,

Hello Jerry,

between 5 and 10 days is normal! Every day books are delivered to the post office by my assistants. The easiest way to order: info@berlinmotorbooks.de and payment with paypal.

thanks
Andreas

Does anybody know how many 911 turbo 3.6 were painted in "viola-metallic" (the colour of the 1993 Jubilee 911)? thank you very much,
Andreas

Book is fantastic, only took about 5 days or less.
Every aircooled turbo fan must buy this book, the whole 930 story is phenomenal.
