Default OT: 993 in Eric Bana's film "Love the Beast"

Didn't see any posts yet in 993 forum - looks like EB's driving a yellow 993 RSR in the opening scenes.

It's streaming on NetFlix at the moment... I've gotten about 1/2 way though. Film is essentially look at Aussie car culture from EB's perspcetive with occasional automotive 'bon mots' tossed in by folks like Jezzer Clarkson. So far it's been very entertaining & enjoyable (some funny interviews & great vintage clips).

Interesting detail (for me, anyway) was EB's dad owning a '67 T-Bird 2dr... same as my first car!

I thought that show was great. Shows a lot of stuff from inside the mind of a car guy. If you haven't seen it, I would also suggest Worlds Fastest Indian.

I remember the yellow car. They never really talked about it, but showed it a good bit.

Yellow car is actually a 964 with bodywork to 993 GT2 appearance. Engine was single turbo ala earlier turbo types. Car is now sold.
