Great video again. Not a fan of the Magnus walker 18s on the 964 however, much prefer the 17 Cup 1 on the 964....

Awesome! Hope you're planning to capture it and post a video on here so we can see/hear it

Wow. Great milestone Dave. Still a lot of work left when Steve gets back from the UK. Do you think we will see her on the 2015 NITT (11-15 Sept) or are you preparing the '82SC for that event?

If it did start today, I missed it. I was there early and had to keep moving.

Yes the plan is to have it ready. Looks like I've been caught with my pants down as the embossing plate project is dragging and the Auto trim guy is about to start. It will run and drive but it could be going south not quite done. Which is good and bad. Good in that it will be a lightweight noisy stripper for a while.

Wow. That was fast. 8 weeks ago it looked like it had hit each corner on a concrete barrier or something!

Yes, fast is right. I mustn't be a high roller customer like Chris!

Just got pricing on the DSC controller upgrade for the PASM in my 987.1. A cool USD$1560. I don't think I need it that badly. Bugger the NZD USD cross rate. Ruining our parts importing game.

Damn! I you add freight to that pay GST and customs clearance its pretty much $2800 NZD. We are not far away now from a point where a 3% surcharge CC transaction on an item above $250 USD will end up costing twice the advertised USD price in NZD once landed.

I've been running the numbers on some of the UK metal. working off a 0.41 rate (conservative) things like C63AMG & E92 M3, RS4 are cheaper in NZ for similar mileage right now than UK!

Sounds like Chris's car will be ready for NITT! It will be very interesting to see how it runs. Hopefully we may also see Leongs GT4 out there too. Going to be a great event - very well subscribed.

I think 2015/16 is the year of the Gayman Style!
