It does change the look of the car ... Throw some decals on it and ignoring all the leather inside it does look like a race car ...

If uncle Sam doesn't need any more money from me I am going o buy mootys sports buckets and we'll take it from there ....

I really want to ship it to germany for the summer!

I suspect that car was never sold by Pacific Porsche and they simply consigned it ...

Can't change my avatar until I take that car to the ring!

Or are you suggesting that only a dead moviestar would drive one like that?

Nice touch with the C/L nuts. It's the subtle details that make a difference. Love the black with white fill. Blends well with the wheels and adds character. Just got the OEM reds for my GMG WC wheels. Did you have them painted or are they available in black?
