Damn those brakes are big...

What makes it a "Walter Rohl" edition?

The seller claims that Röhrl personally signed the right door or door frame.

It's one of the many thousands of cars you could drive that Walter Röhrl would still be faster than you driving a Yugo.

I'll sign anyone's car if they want me to, to increase the value. Heck, I've got a mean "Michael Jordan" signature and a fairly good "Babe Ruth" one too!

A '98 Turbo S with 62K miles at current $97K bid? I would be on it if it was a US spec.

The turbo S brakes are standard Big Reds.. painted yellow... IMHO.

Steve,

You're correctr but those front look so damn big (really fill the wheels)... Maybe it's just the angle of the photo.

So Kim, when do you want to "Flying Finn Editionize" your YZ? You'll sell it in no time.

what is the difference?
someone on rennlist took one to the US I think, maybe I am wrong
The turbo S insignia in the photo seems like embedded to the inside and not plastic
glued, is it the one on the rear lid? if so does all the turbo S have the rear lettering in the metal?
