Default Color comparison
I don't have any better pictures but this gives you some idea it was a work in process at the time.

Interesting!

I don't think that will work on a 993, but, for some reason, in that color on a 928 it makes more sense.

Got some 18” Fikse FM-10’s. I like the look.

That is idyllic. I especially love the gravel driveway. Do you put binding agent in the gravel to prevent the tires from squirming around when you drive the car? I have that issue and recently found out about binding agents that essentially act like glue.

Yep, it‘s rock solid and even works when we have snow in winter.
We have 18% accent at the exit and have a special mix to increase the grip.

It’s a 97 cab with a hardtop. Rides on 18in Volks Rays Racing TE37 rims and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S rubber. Suspension is KW Variant 1s lowered to the height you see here.

I've always loved your car. Beautiful, with or without caps.
