lots of sharks out yesterday.....a white and a cobalt blue (or something similar...faded over the years perhaps) 928 going up and down avenue road respectively......those cars give me an urge to watch scarface.

^ probably still gets better mileage than a 13B rotary....life at 9000RPM's is costly

True, it wouldn't be a cheap daily but man what a great family car it would make. No offence to 928 owners.

Isn't the 13B motor a mere 1300cc. Now if you had the R26B....

Nice to know that some of the sharks are still out there. Haven't had mine running in 2 year but it will run again this summer. Think a N/A 928 suck gas.....imagine one with a supercharger.


Saw a silver GT3 on the 407 this morning. Looked niiiiice! It was driven by a middle aged asian fella.

Well it's not really a 1300cc engine. They run like a 2 stroke (combustion at every revolution) so they are more like a 2.6L than a 1.3. If you look at it that way, all of a sudden they are not so magical anymore, are they?
