Can anyone ID the year/make model of the car in this song?

Its at the very end, so you can click near the end of the song if you can't listen to this 80's song.

Sounds like a Porsche but what year would be pretty tough. It could be an SC.

It sort of sounds pre-89 but who can say for sure? It has a bit of rumble like a 3.2 but again, can't say for sure.

Without a doubt, a Citroen 2V, probably vintage 1948..

Haha. I didn't expect anyone to ID the year When I heard this song today for the first time it was refreshing to hear the 911! Personally, I think it was a SC :]

Thanks for making the song stick in my head today!

I have a tiger plecos in my fish tank. Cool guy, but I don't know why I spent the extra money, when the thing mostly hides during the 'light' hours. Oh well.

Sure What you need are the garden variety Plecostomus. My guys are always cruising around and they're friendly. They stop to check you out and you can see their eyes move to look at you. Funny stuff (no,I'm not cracking up)
