Ok Serge, MOOTY confirmed and has spoken. We can move forward on the trade, my E88s for your 4.o engine

Very nice and tasteful mods...has me thinking. First on the list is to get that anchor of a factory exhaust off the back. Thanks for the inspiration.

Based on what we're seeing on the car now, could you have bought a new 3.8RS for all this money you dropped in upgrades? I see some expensive pieces there like the Carrera GT seats...

Dude, you're trying to break the one rule of Porsche ownership... NEVER. ADD. YOUR. RECEIPTS.

Half of it is the journey, and not just the end product.

JB, the car looks insane good job, I have been looking for some 18" E88's for the RS but settled on some LM's.. but they are too narrow.

If you or anyone has a line on some used e888's let me know!

Jbigelow: your car is perfect! When I finally source my Carrera White 997 I plan to borrow some of your styling cues. With that being said how did you match the red on your wheels and mirrors? We're they both painted or were the wheels powder coated?

Love how you are mixing it, and changing your style. Great work, thanks in advance for your time.

Car looks killer as it is. I think I would pay my respects to RWB with a small sticker on the back window personally and leave the rest cup car-ish as it is.

You can't get CGT seats in 3.8 RS either in the States.
