Default 959 @ Herb Chambers Porsche Boston

So, I happened to be at Herb Chambers with a friend looking around the other day and thought I might drool a little when do my eyes deceive me.....a perfect condition 959, belonging to Mr. Chambers himself, sits a top the 3rd floor and in the show room. I had no camera so there are no pics, but it's there for anyone who wants to see it.

Very nice! For a car that is over 20 years old it looks very modern. The only give away of the car is the interior!

Yeh, the one there is PERFECT, as you would expect from a mega millionaire like Herb. It's very very not for sale, just for show.

If you ever have the chance to go to Paul Russell in Essex, he sometimes has a 959 there as well. It's Ralph Lauren's and was shown at the MOFA in Boston a few years ago. Absolutely beautiful car!!!

What color? I have seen a few silver ones in person but never black. If it was black my dream car would be within driving distance!

It's fantastic! Both Alex and Paul are great guys! I bought my 73 from Alex. Take a look at this post to see some of the stuff I'm fortunate enough to get to play with (and that's only the Pcar stuff).

Cool, never seen a red one before either. Now if it were a black one I'd have a problem explaining to my wife why the house is for sale and we still have a mortgage!
