Default OT: Spotted 993 in movie 'Sunshine Cleaning'

Aside from Amy Adams starring role (or Alan Arkin if your tastes run that way), another reason to watch this movie is that at about 64 minutes there's a red 993 front & center in the shot. Amy's character parks her car right behind the 993 on the driveway of a house... Looks like NM plate '077 YHU' (hard to read) & I couldn't tell if WB or NB. Anyone here on RL involved or know anything more?

Looks like a NB with the spoiler up (?)

My wife rolled her eyes when I just about jumped off the couch when that 993 appeared in the scene. I'm prone to reacting to stuff like that; she rolls her eyes a lot.

I get the same reaction from wife also. She thinks I am nuts!

Hey Dave looks like you have the clone to my car. I believe a while back I saw you driving it in Lafayette, which made me take a double take as I thought that someone had just stole my car!!!

VMX: yep, that probably was me. It would be fun to run across each other sometime ... but I'm not letting anyone who knows these cars well near it until after the rains stop and I can finally keep the poor thing clean for more than a couple of days at a time!

well you are lucky...I can't stop referring to Porsches. I have callouses on the back of my head from my wife "slapping me upside the head" and yelling, "SNAP OUT OF IT!"
