OT: CGT 5K service...

Nope, not a CGT yard sale...

Just the standard 5K service.

From the 6Speed PNW forum from a great local photog, figured you guys and gals would enjoy...

The rest of the pics (w/ captions) are here:

A true dream machine.

While searching for photos I found one that's for sale. I LOVE the matte vinyl wrap on this one,, have thought of doing the same on my own car. Maybe in another 100K miles when the paint is all blasted away.

Looks like it is worth every cent of the $400K or whatever it cost new.

Anyway, when will the DIY CGT engine drop coming out?

As JP Morgan once said, "If you have to ask..." But I wonder the same as well.

Not sure what Barrier in Seattle charges but in the UK a year ago it was around $11-12K for the service, which is apparently a "4 Year" service, not a "5K mile" service as I indicated previously.

Porsche lost money on these things -- once you take one apart, or at least see one taken apart, you can see why.
