Great in the dry.
Great around town.
Great on the highway.

David,

My cousin used to work for the company that built that car. They build most of the prototypes for concept cars. They are located in Fountain Valley, CA. I have a photobook of several others they were working on at the time when he quit.

The red and black Dauer 962's were purchased by a gentleman in Saudi Arabia; after taking delivery of the red one, he decided to get the black as a back-up. There's something quite lucrative about being involved with the Saudi Royal Family.

That Company is right by Fry's electronics right? Or is it the one in front of the D-Link?

The 037 Rally is just an awesome car and the last of the truly competitive 2wd rally cars. I've wanted one of the road going homologation versions for years. What a neat car. Wish I had a pic to post.

All you guys who posted a pic of a car without the Porsche crest on the hood: SHAME ON YOU!!!
All you guys who posted a pic of a red Italian rust-bucket: GOD DRIVES P-CARS AND WILL STRIKE YOU INFEDELS WITH A VENGEANCE!!!
For the last time/ there is only one car and that's a P-car.
Over and out.

It's a touch over a half mile North-north-east of Fry's.

The have an amazing toyland in there. They have gone fairly high tech in the last few years but they will build a car for a private individual if you pony up the cash. In the 90s they built 6 'one off' Bentleys for the Sultan of Brunie. (I thought the grill looked like the one on the Mercury Cougar. :() Hey just bring money.

So in a rough count so far...

34 Porsche
14 Ferrari
25 Other Makes



My choice would be a 1995 993 RS 3.8
