If anyone has that photo, please post it. I actually think these tribute cars are sort of cool. I would never own one, but there are a lot of cars that people on RL say that they love (weird colors, etc) that I would never buy.

I am pretty sure I saw a picture of it. It was in a book that was not a dedicated Porsche book. It was one of those "best cars in the world" sorts of books (a paperback, I think), with only a page or two dedicated to each car. Perhaps I am losing my mind.

detailed? hey, it was a mobile phone camera
i'm a bit surprised by the negative comments regarding paint.
I too would not do this to a car, ('specially the gaping front maw), but they do score points for "doing-something-different" in my book.
i'd take it if it was given to me.
LOL

I do recall seeing a picture in a book of a 993 Turbo S with what I believe was a Martini look. I saw it at a Borders store, so it must be a popular book. Does anyone have that picture? It was a 993 Turbo S in a showroom, behind ropes, white with I believe red and white stripes.

"Its Sunoco livery with racing stripes similar to the Penske-run 917/30."
