I just thought I'd share this with you guys, sorry the scans aren't the best.

I'd like to read this. Unfortunately the scan is pretty difficult to read. Is there anyway to get a better copy?

Thank you,

Thank you, much. This is something I wish we could get, these old road tests.

For motorcycles, there is a service in Colorado that will send you copies of all articles every printed on most bikes, but I'm not aware of anything for car reports.

Thank you,

Here this might be better to read the black and white.

I have the original article it was in a folder in the boot. I guess the PO wanted it because the car in the article is Rivi Blue.

It would be great if someone could post "high" quality PDF's--or if someone can send them to me, I'll get the article/PDF's hosted so they can be downloaded....

It was this very article that hooked me onto the 911 in general and the 993 in particular! Was faced with spending a full Saturday in traffic school, and decided to pick-up some reading material for the lunch break, so I nabbed a copy of R&T. It was about the time I was looking to replace my Mustang SVO and was looking for something with more/better/etc. The article sold me (not to mention the pics as I am a sucker for blue and the Riv. Blue was incredible!). Unfortunately, economics crashed me back into reality and the 993 became the "some day" car. Fast forward to 2007, and the dream is mine! (but not in blue, although I did look at Midnight Blue & Ocean Blue examples... besides, Speed Yellow is close to blue, right?)

Thanks for the Flashback!
