Hey I've got a 911!

Just sharing my thought and gratefulness as I walked out of my garage!
Thinking of how bad I've always wanted one my garage has two Porsche.

Welcome to share your thoughts

LOL!!!

Absolutely right...

First this is my 87' 951 which was ripped off wachuko's hands
Got to get better shots though but here it is.
  • SFR Stage 3 Turbo
    SFR Full 3" SS Exhaust
    Megasquirt
    Fuel system w/ 72lb injectors
    LEDA Coil Overs
    LSD





And this is a whole different loads of fun. Never thought I would love a targa so much.
Here she is the day I picked her up for the first date...

You are right about not realizing how much fun a Targa is. With the roof off, and the privacy of that rear glass, you have open air driving but can hear your rear speakers at the same time (they do get in the way of the engine sound though...).

Nice car, and love the deep Fuchs!

Nice! Love how you don't trust the GoPro suction cup. I've used mine on many Autocrosses and it never fell off. Enjoy the car - it's a Beaut!

Tippy thanks...gave me idea for my mancave name jejeje.


Jdub the fuchs are 7 fronts and 9 rears. Felt lucky the car had em. Really givesmit an aggressive look while keeping it narrow body.

Jack Olsen come on! totally envy yours! Spent some time reading when you did the install of the floor jack. Great info. I dream of a two post but don't have the roof clearance. And the Max Jacks are expensive to get down here.

Olsen 911 if you feel confused again I can trade that longnose for my 951

I did learn to next time use some type of stainless steel wire... I used on the pic some construction rope and learned that it gets on the way of the video at speed LOL. I was in a hurry to do a test drive

Plus I do trust a bit the suction cups but the road conditions here can get pretty bad sometimes

Nice Targa, and another silver 911. Can you share the color code? I'm trying to gather up metallic silver 911s in a thread "Simply Silver". Please post your new baby if so inclined.

Silver Targas are the best. I don't care what anyone says about Targas, but they are sweet.
