If I lived in Burgundy I don't think I could stay sober long enought o fix a car. It's bad enough here in fruity Pinot-land....

I'm with you Randywebb. But his roads gotta be great to drive on. What a dilemma on a sunny day. Drink wine or drive the 911.

If gas weren't $5/gallon, an early 911 would be a great daily driver in certain parts of France.
Philippe, I look forward to seeing more of your project.
