The real benefit doesn't show up until you start cutting holes in the Queerios box. Incidentally, the queerios themselves make great little trim pieces for the holes.
Remember though, 4 holes is enough, 3 won't flow the same.

Joe - yes. I am yours this summer, only thing I have going on is my 968 turbo project. I seriously will have lots of time free in the 3 months. I actually like amethyst a LOT. Not gay at all, but it really does need a black interior. I don't like that one amethyst cab with the 993 lights, only because it has purple interior too . If I were interested in a cab I'd love to take that one off your hands eventually. My bro likes cabs; maybe I can convert him?

Chris, stop making fun of me.

Matt, stop making fun of me.

Cool! I've got some projects to wrap up -- and I'll be sure to make it worth your time. I need to find a storage/wrenching space first, though...

Porsche isn't the only one to mess around with Pink. Dodge/Plymouth used it on a few of their muscle cars in 1970. The color was called panther pink (dodge) or molan rouge (Plymoth). Here's a link to a T/A. It is a mettalic just like raspberry.

Looks like someone worked out a deal cause it is gone. I hope it went to a good home.

Hey that ain't bad! Just looking at pink it looks good but when you start thinking about how you will appear in it, you start having doubts. But I don't mind, as long as it's not my only car, I think pink can be sweet when applied right! On a muscle car with black stripes it does look good, but that's IMO!

What are you doing with all those pink cars' pictures on your hard drive?

The Hello Kitty 512 is just wrong! WRONG! The Elise and the Panda look cool... but I wouldn't own them. I like them but there are so many other, nicer colors! Like on the Elise I'd go with orange.

I was bidding on car, love the unusual colors, anyone know how much it went for? Keep an eye out that car should not be hard to spot.

23-24 k, was the threshhold, he had tons of emails, me included, I have the exact same car, but it was lost in a fire at my mechanics about 3 years ago, in fact we didn't even get to drive it, it came off the truck went in for the usual go over, and boom, big boom, battery charger was defective and blew up.. It was a horrible incident for an amazing shop and restorer in Naples, Fl. My wife was crushed...

Shaynes,
I found your old car in my coupe database. I saw it on eBay back in November of 2003. It was in Florida with 33K miles on it. Raspberry with a Classic grey interior and a tip. Sold at Canan Motor Car.That was quite a car. It must of had some special history. It was coupe PS820064 which makes it the forth 968 built for the 1993 model year. Probably the first Raspberry coupe built.
