Coming clean here, I struggled to decide if that was a 280 or a 300.

My cognition was weak on this one, and ironically I was out for exercise when I posted the picture.

You have to be one of most in shape people on this board for both body and mind, independent of age. You don't have to know the sad story of the slow and then steep deline of the Z series after the 240, just keep posting pics.

Thanks, Shaun. That means a lot coming from you.

This cat came over to say hi to me when I was taking the picture of the car this morning.

"Cat Paparazzi," ha ha.

I always thought the Z1 was kind of cool; never actually seen one in the flesh.

I bought an '08 Audi S4 in March, the car is a beast 4.2L V8 6 speed manual... with Just 31K on the odo.. I've hardly driven my Cayman since I picked it up..

This car is something you may spot around Long Island now... 1 of 929 built between 1976-1981..

512BB

I've been helping my friend dial in the carbs.. Seems like the PO had Mario or Luigi maintaining the car..



Yoda at work



Hey Mario, lets make some really complicated wipers...OK Luigi






That GT4RS is brand new... just break in miles.... Its in the shop for a brake upgrade..

^ ^ ^ I have a notion that the white 911 poking it's one eye out is pretty special, too.

That WW arm is definitely trickle down technology from the LeMans program.

I saw this, uh, thing, parked next door to the Home Depot in Alex City, Alabama. Sorry for the multiple pics but I just had to share all angles.
