Wow, thanks for sharing the pics! Four 959s, F40, 2.7RS, 300SL, 934(?), 935, CLKDTM/AMG....all in one place. Is that dark orange steel-wheeled 911 the one that was in Excellence a couple months back? Very cool looking car. Any idea how many 959s Canepa has "converted"? Again, thanks for the Sunday car ****.
Tim.

There were only 7 959's this time. Last time there were 15.Most 959 owners are sending them back for the current Turbo upgrade.
Originally they were 450 Hp.Then Bruce came out with a 600 HP upgrade.Now thet are getting the 650 HP upgrade
Bill Gates 959 was there last time I was there

Mecca, in our own backyard.

Thanks! I need to make that tour the next time PCA-GGR has a get-together.
