I have a '93 Cab w/ the wimbledon green - reason being: When I was a kid I saw the movie Gumball Rally and fell in love w/ the 365 Spyder - this car always reminded me of that styling and was something I could afford since it was (2) figures less than the Daytona was at the time.
Kinda funny how I acquired it: I was driving to Bodega on the coast early one Saturday morning to meet my Aunt and Uncle - there I was driving on these twisting and turning roads w/ not a car on the road in my Mercedes diesel thinking "what's wrong w/ this picture" I told myself that when I got home on Sunday I was going to go online to autotrader and if there was a wimbledon green cab west of the rockies I would buy it. Miraculously, I found one in the Bay area just an hour away (I had looked on and off, but not very serious for a number of years for a wimbledon green and this was the first I had ever seen for sale) I called immediately, I got a very agitated woman who explained that it was her husbands baby, garaged since day one etc... "the bastard cheated on me w/ his secretary, but the car is in my name" I interrupted, and said "stay pissed, I'll be right there".......... and that's how I got my 968.
I am really looking forward to learning about performance modifications etc... from the wealth of information from the members of this site.
Cheers,
Paul
