Default Do you ever...

Do you ever approach your car from across the park and think to yourself, "Wow, I have a RIDICULOUSLY good looking car." Then you take a picture of it and stare at it endlessly (also you post it on your favorite website)?? I would imagine this is a common theme amongst 968 owners.



Anyway... I do that about half the time. The other half I think to myself, "Damn I left the parking lights on again"

They're still lookers, twenty years after introduction.

Don't own a 968, , but yes! Nice photo. Makes the Acura behind it look, uhh, not good.

Indeed. I also think the 944/968 cab is one of the best looking cabs that was originally designed as a coupe (rather than the other way around, i.e. a Boxster and Cayman)

Very few cars sold today IMHO actually look good, including Porsches.

Take care!

She looks good from a far, but far from good. She is nothing compared to the likes of some of the cars I see here. Amazing! Anyway, I got her with what some might call a slight interior dilema, but she is coming back together slowly but surley/surely. When the time is right, the before and afters will start coming out.

I very much enjoy not having a car that beeps at me to put on my seatbelt, or for my passenger to put on theirs. Or a car that beeps at me for leaving my blinker on too long, or if I leave my lights on, the key in the ignition, or for having a broken beeper.
