968 Article in Hemmings
July 2011 issue of Hemmings Sports & Exotic Cars has great article on the 968 (pages 30-35). On page 35 author writes about "the best for last" and further states "all the expected modern features are present on the 968, including dual front airbags, ABS, and four-piston calipers on all four disc brakes. If you are looking for a unique, modern day sports car that looks great and compares well in every way to modern day competition, you should give the 968 a look. Just be prepared to be approached by less savvy car fans and asked, "Is this a new Porsche Model?""
Love it!!

The Editor, David La Chance, has written 3 968 related articles so far:
- 5 Great Porsches for First Time Owners (Mar 2009)
- Buyer's Guide - Porsche 968 (Apr 2010 - included "Minty")
- Porsches for the Frugal, 968: The best for last (Jul 2011)
I just sent a complimentary letter to David for his most recent article. Sure nice when our vehicles get praised.

David is a great guy. It was a nice experience to work with him and help get alot of the erronious 968 information out there fixed. Here are a couple of Hemming's links with his Porsche work:

yes!
Lamborghini and Ferrari are still trying to build a supercar that can be daily driven for tens of thousands of miles without a visit to the shop.
of course, there are guys who post here who are already doing that.
