Hmmm, our 'single photo': black one in France?

That looks like a Turbo body 964 Speedster to my eye ... not that there's anything wrong with that ...

Yeah, initially I wanted to believe it was a 993, but then logic & strained eyes arrived at a similar conclusion

Speakin' a WTL 964 Speedsters, this is purported to be one of the rare few from the factory:

Nice find in the lower garage, Christian! Interesting to see the complete lack of a third brakelight baskethandle despite the German requirement for one when this car was made, although I doubt the Porsche family gets many 'fixit tickets' ... I saw the Transsiberian Cayenne for sale on the main outside lot of the Zentrum last time I was there as well, looks like there's been no takers ...

I'd pitch a tent
