Now, THAT car is anything but the dark side. I think one thing that's so terrific about this board is that, although we're Porsche enthusiasts, we pretty much are CAR enthusiasts and love finely built, high performance machines of all types. Never fear posting a pic or topic on a beautiful "non-Porsche," although it doesn't hurt to have some Porsche content in the thread

Me and you both! LOL!!!!
But I still have one 911 in my stable. Sold the old faithful 993, kept the 996 as daily driver. The 993 guys couldn't understand my logic behind that.
Congratulations on your find, your "Dark side" looks just like my "Dark side". A good example 360 spider is not easy to find, took me about 6 month of searching.
Options I that I wanted: Daytona seats, Challenge grill (front and back), manual shift, modular wheels, red caliper, scuderia shields, and of course all service and update done. In addition the car came with front CD changer, tubi NGT exhaust, spare tire option. but who needs the radio in a f-car.

Phil, how much additional enjoyment would you get from having a F-car parked in your garage instead of the C4S?
The only problem I can see with that is you would have to learn to make a different vrrooomm sound to mimic the F exhaust.

that's awesome man. i have more of an interest in upgrading to a ferrari than upgrading in the 911 line-up. the ferrari is on a whole other level of existence as great as the overall 911 line-up is - this is coming from a bachelor's perspective. i'm sure you fellas understand
i'd def lower mine with bigger, wider wheels. i can't stand the way the stock wheels are so narrow and how much they tuck into the body esp on the 360s.
