Pointless to own unless you want to just look at it.

 

I would not want to see the name Ferrari anywhere on my Porsche, pretty car though.

 

Btw, do we know how many turbo s were produced.

Speaking of ferrari, a daytona is about 400k. Maybe there will be P from the air cooled area like there are Ferrari from the Enzo area. Collectors like boundaries.
I dont think a turbo s is that interesting a car though, but thats only me.

 

Did the trailer he brought it there with match?

 

Neither would I ...

 

There is no doubt it is crazy high priced, but I don't think those other blues would be easier to command a high price.

The fact this was painted to order, and most likely the only one, would trump Riviera Blue any day.

 

overpriced and overrated

 

182 produced.

 

It's pretty and all but if I was spending that kind of money, so many other $350k cars on my list....

 

Again, $350K (or whatever this thing trades for, if at all) is a ROUNDING ERROR in the fleet where this car will reside. Kinda like one of us picking up a nice 924S or something.

I'll go another direction on the '73 RS comparison--one drives in my shop circa 1986, $20K ask, for a PPI. It's got a binder of 100K DM factory restoration work done on it at Werks I (before it was imported) circa 1980. Who in his right mind was spending (then) $50K to restore a (then) $15K car to original? Some guys were.

Cars collection is irrationality measured against pragmatism. At least since I've been an observer over the past 30 years. No way, no how is any potential buyer of this car cross-shopping against summing up a fleet of normal air cooleds. Maybe it plugs a hole in a vertical collection, maybe a restored factory race car with history ends up in this guy's empty slot. Who knows. Unlikely we'll see him posting here............

 

To much!

Buy them in Germany for half the price.

 

Interesting.

 

Nice steering wheel. Opo, that is the same as that wheel I bought rom you. The one from you had an aftermarket Porsche crest. I took that off and it looks just like that. Maybe that is where it came from?

 

Isn't there a Porsche yellow color called Fly Yellow, that is real close to a Ferrari color?

So how was it allowed to actually call this car Ferrari Dark Blue? Why wasn't the Porsche Fly Yellow called Ferrari Yellow (or similar)?

I am just really surprised the legal department let the Ferrari name go on a Porsche.

In 10 or 20 years, if properly cared for, this $350 price will look like a bargin.

 

FLY is Ferrari Light Yellow: F.L.Y.
