This is not the North Aamerican version of the car. I imported the car into Canada from overseas. A quick look at the car and you will see that the euro version does not have the big clunky looking bumpers. Also different are the small side marker lights behind the front wheels. The North American version has larger marker lights that are forward of the wheels.
Love your S2 ,is it from Japan? & where are you located.More pics of the int/engine bay will be appreciated TIA.

Those bubbles in the glass that you can see when viewed from certain angles, are those normal? I can see some in mine like in your photo, although the window tint pretty much negates it. Is it manufactured in or some process that occurs with age?

Yes they are normal.

My LandRover's windshield does the same thing. Its usually when I have my sunglasses on that I can really notice the effect or take a pic of it. Not too sure, but I think it has something to do with UV ray protection. Don't quote me on that though.

Porsche 944 Crash Pictures

Some of these pics make me cringe. I hope I never crash mine.

Saw this picture of the 944 GTP Le Mans and decided that I want a side exhaust on my car so I can shoot flames too. I wanted to make sure it would be a good look for my car before I spent the cash on having a custom exhaust made, so I modified a picture of my car. What do you guys think?

I've seen electrically operated exhaust diverter valves. It would be hilarious to set up an installation where you could switch from your normal street legal exhaust to an "out the side" cannon at the touch of a button. A bit too much effort just for ****s and giggles.

Hmmm.... I do have a spare pipe laying around...... maybe I should do some cutting and bending.

kids used to do it in the 50s. you put a spark plug in the tailpipe. flip the switch and it ignited the vapors and flames shot out the pipes. lol - not without problems though. there were a few stories about the flame going the wrong way, fuel tanks catching fire, yada yada.
