Put a guard rail at the top of that retaining wall.
I not partial to the green?
I don't care for the font?
It's a beautiful car as is; leave it alone and go cut the grass or something?
Nice photochop job though.

Mikey, Mikey, Mikey......IMHO, Porsche got it right the first time.

When are you gonna convert her to a coupe :)

BTW, any word on another SB Run?

I have to admit...the first time I saw the "real" Carrera font... I thought "Oh Great.... another example of Cheezy 70s logos, I cant believe that Porsche got sucked into that too"

Then I learned more about that particular classic car, 73 RS and slowly my mind changed and now I like it. The duck fin helps too.


Remember the 70s? I was just a kid...but like every other car had some cheezy logo or stickers on it... like the auto manufacturers just had to differentiate a Le Car from an AMC Pacer.

no no no...I already did the drawing, you can't change now! Ha Ha

Mike, that thing needs some tack-on flares and red 993 wheels. You know, to match that other...car.

Couldn't be gayer. Well, hot pink lettering might do it.

Well.....THAT pretty much shoots it down.......

Looks kinda Hanna-Barbera Carrera . . . you know, makes me think of the RoadRunner and his ACME products

Yeah, uh...NO!

The only reason I think we think the original Carrera font is 'kewl' is because it goes with the times. It never was cool in it's time but has only become so as a retro thing. It puts a car in a specific era, fine. You will have a hard time making it look decent apart from it's history methinks...

What're you anyway, some closet ricer, needs a bunch 'o decals and some coffee cans hanging out the back (joking, joking, joking)...

Do you have a vinyl cutter or something, Mike? ;)

Looks a lot better with those wheels, too.

Don't quit your day job.

Mike, cemon...what's the deductible on your vision care plan.....? Maybe we should start to collect
