The Cactus has landed...

I had the distinct pleasure of finally meeting Rennlist's own resident malcontent, Cactus. Said individual made the trek down from PA to have his red sled aligned at a local shop and then dropped by for a visit. I'm not sure my backwoods neighborhood was ready for a super-clean red 993! I have a feeling that I'm on at least one neighbor's ****list after both cars exercised their LPMMs....

A few pics:

Andreas your SLR makes my car look naughty!!! Good times yesterday and the trip home was so much better since the toe was way out on my Cactuswagen. Can't wait to visit again and use that spare bedroom when we pull my motor to "clean' it!!! Oh and BTW Andreas has the cleanest most mechanically sound 993 ever!

I am surprised at how wide the rear is on the Cactuswagen, to me it looks as wide as a S !

I think it's the height of the Cactuswagen. When I lowered mine, it also looked wider to me.

I love the black rims with the silver lip on the Guards Red cars. There are a few of them on RL; it's a great combo/contrast.

Clearly, our hero's meticulousness does not personally extend to timely removal of the Christmas decorations

Feeling a little better about myself...

You know I always wanted an S model so thanks Andreas. Oh and I forgot to tell you after the gas station I went back and did a couple doughnuts in your cul de sac and then gave the angry neighbors Mark In Baltimore's number!!!!
