Default Damn That 993!
I love my 996! I absolutely love it! However, I was just reading a few threads on Porsche Pete's Boxster Board, and someone posted these photos. Curse you 993! Which one is Angelina Jolie? Which one is Jennifer Anniston?

That photo has some seriously odd aperture and shutter speed setting. It looks like a diecast model car placed in the dirt for photos.

I agree. And fwiw, I like the look of the 964 better.

Yeah, but the 993 makes a great "hot air popcorn machine."

That should get the 993 crowd riled up!

This is Carlos' car -- last I spoke with him he was in the Vegas area. His images are outstanding, so is his car. Beauty!

Not to common are 993 C2S
widebody (turbo look) two coloured grills in rear wing , but doesn't have the same suspension and big red brakes as the 993 C4S version
They are good pieces and 993 C2S have a high value.


Talking about Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie..... I prefer Adriana Lima, Gisele Bundchen or perhaps Heidi Klum...
