I found these pictures taken after we took the cars for a drive and a visit to the track a couple of weeks back. The red car is nothing special, plain stock 993TT, not my favourite combo, but 25k miles and excellent mechanical shape.
I hope this is not too much hijack Farzaan, apologies.

Well, a GT2 replica with RUF CTR2 front and rear, anyway !

What was your opinion of the quality of the RUF pieces, Jean ? I wasn't too pleased with my front piece (purchased direct) - two body shops have still failed to make it anywhere near factory quality ..

Alois doesn't reply to my mails any more ..

cheers, Maurice

OMG, your turbo looks like a tiny little NB sitting next to your GT2.

Great pics of the turbos. Though the 7GT3 is a sexy car, the 993 clearly has the best lines.

FC
I will post some if they let me from a recent magazine photoshoot. Thanks

Maurice, the RUF bumpers needed a lot of work to fit because of the width of my car. They had to be cut and reworked, a royal PITA, but I love them, and they are very functional in the back since they let the heat from my turbos escape through the vents. ( My turbos are located at the place of the mufflers on a stock TT, on the sides by the bumper openings)

dfarrow, I take care of my silver car a lot. I just needed a more comfy driver( and obviously would not be a 996! ), the silver 993 would have been fine, but the suspension is too stiff and I have no choice but to keep it that way.
Thanks.

Jean,

I like the red 993tt. Clear indicator lights go a long long way IMO.

Jean,

Nice pics!!

LAT (yesterday) showed me the pictures from the day that you, he, and Konstantin took both
of your cars out into the desert as well as stopping by your local playground (Race track within a couple of kilometers from your house!!). He said it was quite warm, and that your Protomotive car is
insane. Sounds like great fun.

I'm a 964T owner, but those newer models just can't compete with the lines of the 993... it still looks just as fantastic today

BTW, Jean, what wheels are those on your GT2 rep?
