While there are numerous interesting elements in the article, what resonated most with me was the shared thought that the 993 is the best looking 911, and the 993 Cab just doesn’t work as well with the top down.
600RR sums it up well. I enjoyed reading about the personal story behind the car, as well as the writing and pictures!
In other news, it looks like I need to update my RL membership. I'm now an outcast!
...& great example of the RL team effort + the pro photogs who included 'SpdKlz' & 'ProducerJohn' throughout the process, including getting them in shots like that one. Hard to please PJ, though, who complains they should send Sharpie markers, since now he's signing so many autographs

That means a lot - thanks! Speedy was happy to dominate 6 pages + cover & 1 other page. Amazing, considering brand new 991.2 Turbo exposé had 5 pages, & another feature was 4 pages.
Resurgence of 993 LUV?

Staff of Total 911's enthusiasm, professionalism, & friendliness has been amazing from the 1st moment.
When the Editor jumped out of the lead car during the Road to Rennsport & literally jogged straight to Speedy to say he wanted to feature her, I bluntly told him he didn't want to. Obviously he didn't listen well, LOL.
The fruit of their labor's been amazing to watch & I'm so proud to be associated with them. Very personable & endearing team of pros
Likewise RLer friends who were the heroes at executing the plan had a blast with them while I trekked to Mt. Everest.

You've always got a friend here, sir, & Speedy looks forward to seeing you again
