Default Lingenfelter's car collection includes a 968

Lingenfelter (http://www.lingenfelter.com/ ) is one of the leading after-market performance enhancers, especially for Chevrolet products. The Lingenfelter C6 Supercharged Corvette is legendary.

9-magazine published a story on Lingenfelter's personal car collection. The full article is at http://www.9magazine.com/report-the-...ollection.html

The 9-magazine story on Lingenfelter reveals that he has chosen a Porsche 968 as one of his prize personal sports cars. Lingenfelter's 968 is a tripple black cabriolet.

According to 9-magazine, "...having sold his 951 track car, Ken wanted something similar, but for the street. What’s better than a 968 Cabriolet for the street? Ken’s example here is possibly the most beautiful and immaculate 968 ..... It’s absolutely perfect...."

Cool, thanks for sharing. Great pics in the article of the 968 & 928. Also notice in the article that he says he first got hooked on the 928! I'll have to cross link this thread to the 928 forum.

I would have to agree with Mike. Hard to beat a nice 968 cabriolet. Mike knows how to add to the punch, so that is a non-issue for him .

Thanks for the shares, guys!

I'm not sure I'd call the pics "great", but here are a few more pictures of the Porsche side of his collection.
