Spotted : The new Porsche 911 - flash - 08-26-2011

just a note: it was kind of the other way around on the 996 - the boxster used the 996 stuff, as the front part of the car is the same from the doors forward



but i get the idea - that's one of the reasons i didn't like the boxster - i liked that they used the 996 front end, as i like that front end, but i didn't like that they used the rest of the tub and doors, because i sit funny in that tub and am not comfortable



as for steve mcqueen's car, i get that - i have a buddy who owns the watch he wore in le mans - we know it's the real one because ali mcgraw gave it to my buddy - i don't really like the watch, but since it was steve's...............

I always remember a Road & Track test of the 911S when it first came out in the US; the headline was - "Performance of the order of an Americam Muscle car without the stigma of low cost."



lol - I vividly remember that same quote. Yikes - really showing my age here.
