Nice to see another 996 turbo in Phoenix. Love the color and wheels. I'm in North Phoenix/Scottsdale. Drive mine in the heat no problem. But I love the heat here.

It's just the Ebay Aero replica.

When I lived out there (and in Vegas) I found that the summer ambient temperatures, along with the radiant heat from the pavement, really took their toll on my cars.

Powder coated the wheels and added a stripe.

You can bearly make out the ghost flags in front of the rear wheels. It's almost impossible to see the Porsche Crests on either side of the front fascia. Tomorrow she goes in for an oil change and the Erams.

Had to go back to work wasn’t finished cleaning it but they are a work of art.

I do like the silver.

I drove down through the gorge and up over Mount Hood on my way to Bend, OR last week. Highway 35 is one of my favorites!
