Red = 997 Club Coupe
Silver = Cayenne S
Black = Boxster
It makes it nice when I'm crawling on the ground after a Rugby match and want to know what car I came to the match in I just look for my parking spot and then look at the Calipers of the car I drove in on...

The new line of calipers, specifically targeted at the preppy markets, will be offered in both Madris and traditional Scotch Plaid (PCCB).

Speaking of calipers, I used to own a heavily modified ZR-1 that had a DUAL caliper setup. (Yes, two calipers per rotor on the front wheels). Tons of swept area and tons of braking power. I'll see if I can find any pics. That thing would stop on a dime.

Hey Jeff, who's the hottie? ... My, what a bod!
I don't recognize the celeb on the red carpet (is it your fave Kirsten Dunst?) but I'll look for her this coming Sunday!

It's love to see that!!!
