das hab ich mir auch gerade so gedacht.


Hi Graham and all,

turned out really great.
Thank you for letting us follow the build.
Now I can't wait for the videos to actually hear this beauty, as well?

Save motoring and good supply of sunny days to enjoy this beast in the wild.

Regards

Marty

Hi Scott,

what are you talking about? Don't you still have 4 days 22 hours left?
Did you get many stupid questions/offers?

Best regards
Marty

Very impressive! Impressed with the outcome...

On a sidenote, how complex would be the conversion from tiptronic to manual on a 993?

Well I attended a Classic & Sports Car Show show today at a local 'Stately Home' (Gawsworth Hall) - and the 993 was well received and much admired. In between the rain storms the sunshine really brought to life the metallic in the Cobalt paintwork.
Fortunate enough to pick up an award for 'Best Porsche at Show' by the organisers!

WOW!. The finished car looks fantastic Graham. I love the interior details. I also agree on rethinking your wheel colour choice from your original.......this is much better IMO.

Oh and the rain showers today has almost made me an expert in erecting a Speedster emergency roof!
No fangled electric motors or drives involved now!

Yes - I'm pleased with the wheels, the blue centres, tho' a fantastic finish, did nothing for me - nuff said !

Well done Graham (and 9m) This really is a spectacular interpretation of a model Porsche should have built themselves.
