Nice pictures Magnus. I really like your car.
Just drove from San Diego to Palm Desert earlier this week, in a rental car unfortunately. We took the route through the mountains (the 79 to the?). Man, I wish I was in my 911!

Very nice Magnus. Best car on the fleet.
I'm in southern France right now. Very inspiring roads here... Like I told you a while ago, it might be a neat idea to ship one of those babies to Europe and drive it in the Alps for a week or so over here.... (I'll come out to take pictures.... Haha!!) |
