Thank You! Nice video!

I have a healthy respect for all of what Porsche has accomplished for decades; but the beauty factor of older 911's leaves me cold.
Once that the flatnose 930/935 look came out for the racecars; I always felt that, that frontend should have been a factory option for the street cars within a year's time!

Most Porsche owner's are not light of the wallet! The peer pressure between friends would have earned the firm extra money, and the WOW factor would have been immensely increased!

I really like the 928's look with the exception of the popup's!

I had the pleasure of watching a 904/6, one of 4 left (of the 6 variety) compete at the Portland Historic Races this year! What a beauty!


My final rant here is that there are a few yrs. where OEM 911/912's have an Amber light in the rear quarter panels that is easily viewed from the back. ( turn signal, and constant w taillights) The Amber shows up well in fog.
My beef is that I can't legally custom any other car to have that quality; only well walleted Porsche owners CAN!!!
