Just saw the 911's answer to "Bullitt"

"No Man's Land ( 1987) w/ a young, skinny Charlie Sheen and lots of pre- 87 911's , lots of hotrodded ones, some in various states of dismantling. I recalled seeing this movie in passing on cable almost 20 years ago, and looked up "Charlie Sheen / car theif" and found this film ( and that it was available on DVD) in the IMDB
and went down to a video store in bought this for like 15 bucks.
TONS of 911's, A few 356's, cast in the age of the mullet and Ray-Bans ( hey, they're bacK!) It's a good time over a beer with your Porsche buddies. Entertaining lapses of reality ( DVD stop-action is great to get even more, (like 40 year old stunt drivers in Sheen wigs) hilariously conspicuous product placement, and a very youg Brad Pitt cameo as an mullet-wearing tuxedoed hors d oeuvre waiter extra in the first party scene. Love that DVD freeze-frame
for picking out gems like this......

It's actually "No Man's Land". The shop in the movie is TRE if I'm not mistaken.

My favorite line in the movie was, when it was suggested to Charlie Sheen's character that they should steal a Ferrari instead of a Porsche, he responded by just saying "Italian trash". I guess I should refrain from using that one around my Italian mother-in-law.
