If I remember correctly from the polydent commercials "green shows speed"

 

The Basalt Black cars are so fast, they can barely be seen..... X50 makes them invisible

 

especially at night

 

Thread revival... lol

Thanks for the info; looking at a possible 911 Turbo for first exotic. I'm finally selling my 500hp 450tq AWD evo, and I don't really want something that much slower. Granted for my first exotic it likely will be. If I do go porsche it will likely be a 997 turbo, then get exhaust and tune. Anyway, thanks for the info rennlist forum!!

 

Chris, I was after a 2008 Cab tip and I was heartbroken when I missed on the deal. Three days later a 2004 midnight blue came for sale within 30 miles from me. Being that I heard a lot of complaints on the "fried egg headlights", I went to just "drive by" the car with the strong idea of not even getting out. It was love first sight. Within 5 minutes I was driving the car and I bought it two days later. I continued lurking around the 997 sites and found that the 996TT are more reliable and a slightly simpler design than the 997TT. I still think the 997TT are terrific cars but every car (996 or 997, one year vs another, mileage, maintenance, etc) has its ups and downs. I will be getting a 997TT one day or just skip and get a 991.1 or 991.2.

 

With a thread posting date of 10-30-2001 this might be a new record for an old thread revival. And you're likely not even getting a 996 Turbo.2001

 

+1 it took me a minute to understand what I was reading - I thought 'Why would Porsche bring that out now...?'

Then, 'Date'...

 

I remember Viken in 2001. He was very active and a great contributor on this forum. We interacted a lot back then, along with Jack LA. IIRC, he went to a F360 a couple of years later....
