I open this thread because I love to see pictures of this gentleman's stunning and rare car. The title of this thread defines what the subject is, if your bored with it, don't post about it, just go elsewhere.

More pictures, please, Jager, I need my weekly fix.

Yeah, but another 4000 hits and it will soon be the 2nd most popular Speedy thread on the 993 forum.

Watch out, there's a Graham about!

Gee with all that snow, I thought they were open already.



Speedy lives on to go at least another 18 pages.....

Thumbs up

To all above ^^ with such enthusiasm for Speedy --

I think you'll enjoy this ... a friend's Shutterfly.com gallery: "Rare 993 Speedster - Exotic Speedy's a sweety!"

No financial affiliation, but I know the fledgling professional photographer who has these prints for sale. She just finished uploading these tonight. You'll see some shots I donated, too.

Again, thanks for supporting Speedy; enjoy!!!


[There is a [B]much higher-resolution, full-screen slideshow without the "proof" watermarks, but I think it will show an error: link .
If any Shutterfly experts know how to make that public access, please PM me. I'll be glad to share, much better for your viewing entertainment.]

Fuzzy 'PowerPoint' screen capture...

Air-- If it was boring, thanks for spicing this page up, + bumping it to the top twice.

It's boorish advice to relay the obvious power we have to avoid anything unenjoyable on the internet. Likewise to point out the remaining 525,000 Rennlist threads (no exaggeration) awaiting your post when tired of their content.

Instead, offering the following: threads & pages that strangers throughout the world have uploaded Speedy's likeness or links to. They previously seemed too vainglorious. I never saw utility in sharing ... 'til now.

You're always welcome here, especially with positive input or constructive words. Regardless, some of the international pages to avoid, that feature others' posts of a red 993 Speedster dubbed "Speedy"...

MadWhips.com's "Porsche 993 Speedster at Carmel"
"I love the look of the car, and for all the cars that I saw over the 12 days in Monterey, Carmel, Laguna Seca, Pebble Beach etc, this was one of my favourites because it was so unexpected. Everyone knows what a Veyron, a 250GTO, a Rolls Phantom drophead looks like, as great as all of these cars are. This 993 really had an impact on me because it was such a surprise, and so beautifully executed. It uses genuine Porsche parts, which is why it looks so right."

[JPP-- I'm sure there's more out there; if I could surf the 'net longer ...2 hours sleep tonight, thanks to night school. You give me the motivation, man!
Jo-- Speedy has 18 more pages to give, but me? hmmm, hope I can hang on for the ride ]..

^^ P.S. The current homepage of 911uk.com's especially prudent for avoidance...


^^ P.P.S. Dominated by good updates on Graham & 9M's work, too.

Speedy's high-resolution slideshow can now be accessed by everyone!

In the name of everything good in the universe, click here:
993Speedster.shutterfly.com

Then select "Full Screen" (top right).



What's your favorite choice for a potential RL calendar shot?


Post your slide #: 8, 23, 87, 116, 146, etc. ... currently 176 hi-res shots to choose from; more may be added.
