I agree and was only joking of course. I for one would never fork over gt3 money for that 991 targa 4s.

Safe travels in yours

Great pictures and car, Marc! I still stick to the Mobile 1. I had a car with 253,000 hard miles on it. The engine ran great, it was the little bits and pieces on the car that wore out.

Love your Targa Marc. Not sure about the new one with the cloth roof, very fiddely, can imagine it going wrong at some point.

Guess if you go to whatever top of the line in oils your good

I didn't even noticed when we changed the oil in my Beemer untill yesterday but the cap says . . . . Castrol

As mentioned in a previous post . . . still needs to grow on me

But if this mechanism fails . . .

Wonder what Porsche is going to charge you to get it fixed . . .

Take care

Very nice, congrats! There's nothing like a 911

I wish this one was mine, I just get to bring it back to life instead.

Congratulations! They are kind of like Rolex. I had one a few years ago and sold it, but the itch never went away so I picked a 991S Cab a while back. Great cars!

Very nice, looks like an extremely early 930. Almost like hips on a beautiful woman.

Love the 930

Even the 964 Turbo is still a really attractive car

They are Tom

But the seller of the 76 930 was asking 95 k

You can buy a lot of car for that money

And it's also just a second hand

BTW how was the race in Daytona ?
