Beautiful color...
I saw a IB 993 Targa for sale by Victory on Ebay about 4 months ago. I e-mailed them about the car just on a whim. I know their rep here and also realize they seem to have very high pricing. As I expected, their reserve on the car was more than 10K higher than what I considered reasonable for the car.

She sure looked nice in that color.

I guess I am lucky that the cowboys don't play in purple and green.

I emailed the seller and pointed them to this thread. Got a friendly reply a few hours later, they seem very well versed in p-cars.
