Default Me and some of my 'friends' at the office

Finally, I was able to take some pictures of my new-to-me '96 C4S which I've had for a glorious three weeks now. It sure does make the 80+ mile round-trip commute a lot more bearable...

For those who like eye candy, I've included the pics of some of my co-workers toys in our parking lot on this fine, sunny, Silicon Valley day. So what's the story with the guys and the brand stinkin' new '04 Turbo Cabs? Well, let's just say that they made it through the 'dot bomb' days relatively unscathed and are finally getting to enjoy a little more 'breathing room' with their new drop-tops...

Even in such esteemed company, I still think the 993's hold their own and then some... Would I trade for one of the '04's? Hmmm... Twist my arm hard enough and maybe for a day or three

There are a number of other silver p-car owners in the company and one of these days, I'll round 'em all up for an even bigger group shot... I might even include the non-silver ones too

Cheers,

The 993 is still the best looking of all of them

Wow, I always preferred the 993 body style compared to the 996 but those pictures really confirm it. Your C4S clearly stands out in that quartet. Congratulations and welcome!

That just gave me more reassurance I made the right decision.

6 now with the 997 coming out yours looks more modern than the others!

I still dont understand the point of a Turbo-Cab.
it should be Turbo OR Cab.

Nice shot. I'm biased, the 993 is more classic and beautiful.

My thoughts exactly! And sadly, IMHO the turbo cab is aesthetically challenged too.

Great line-up, though. At least you don't have to worry about anybody dinging your car!

Thanks for all the comments everyone... Nice to know I'm in good company and I don't mean the one I work for...

Jeff 993TT - No, it's not Sun's parking lot although you're right, it does look like it. It's the Ariba Complex off of 237 & 101.

Have a great weekend everybody
