Default Beauty shots

It was 104 degrees in Texas ... perfect weather to wash the freshly detailed car and take some portraits of her looking her best.

The car is lowered, M030 springs and Bilstein HDs.

The gauges are a rare factory option, cashmere leather surrounds. The leather goes all the way inside the gauge face, it's not just a trim ring.

Tequipment. Yep, very very rare.
She looks sweet

P.S. What's installed to the left of your headlight rotary? (where there's otherwise a blank plug for the European headlight leveler control)

Thanks, guys. The previous owner had a K40 radar detector installed in it; that's the on-off and volume control. I don't use it, though, I prefer the Valentine One.

I was never a guards red guy after my red 944 began turning pink and i couldn't stop it...but when i see this: WOW!!!

This is eye-catching. Midnight blue or silver are so dull in comparison.
