I dont mind it so much. Martini Racing has been involved with Porsche for like 40 years so its not like its a randomn made up group.

I suppose not every 944 can look the exact same (though so many do). I like it and Martini well known for racing.

I like it!

But I guess because I'm Italian...

I think za is referring to 'turbo' stickers that can't be seen on the doors, rather than the stock wing sticker!

I also don't mind this as the white and the stripe colours go however I'm not sure if its the angle but it looks like the stripe doesn't run straight?

IMO it would have been better down the middle

Hey Guys I was just stirring.... I personally prefer minimal "decor" on my rides. I think the turbo carries it off on it's lines alone, it doesn't need any help. Gotta love those Germans!

Stripe runs straight. Hood curves in...

I've seen numerous 911's with this same graphic setup at many races in the 80's.

It's not a 924 LeMans if it doesn't have the orange carpet!
