Mr.Zico,
You're one sick puppy...
How about your GT3 as your new avatar?

must.......resist......temptation!!! LOL, you guys are killling me! I love my 993 so much and it's plenty car for me, but I've started lurking into this tempting dark side! Right now I need to focus on finances supporting two little ones and a wifey that's at home, but man oh man.....!!!

Next round of juicy bonuses and stock options.....hmmmm......maybe or I'll wait a few year to see if prices come down.

You guys with 997 GT3's are lucky fellows indeed. Hard earned, for sure, but still awesomely lucky!

Big Cheers!!!

That's a great idea, I was mulling over that myself... I haven't outgrown my car YET, but when I do the 3.8/9M upgrade (350-360 hp from what I am reading) sounds far more enticing than getting a new car. The handling in a 993 I think could be fine tuned to get it within reach of a GT3 or RS. Power seems to be the final frontier If you do pull off the 9M conversion, let us know how that goes. And yes, it would be a great sleeper.

Hoooray!! Thank you Zico! the way that picture was taken and posted, it was like the mole from Austin Powers... it didn't matter what was being discussed in the thread, my eyes kept wandering I mean, it this was a forum for "peer into my living soul" pictures, i think you would be a shoe in for the best looking avatar thread! I am glad you have a good sense of humor Zico, good to have you.

To tell you the truth I was also starting to freak out with my own face! hehehe.
Jesus saved me, brother! (but I will be back)

Now, back on the GT3 business:

oleg: you are right about the 997 GT3 but you will be very well served with a 996 GT3, also.

Must be camera tricks.
