Taken long ago at my parent's house a few years after I got the car. Still have it. Yep, I agree, cab just don't look right with Slant nose.
LOL, the standard bodied turbo cabs are much better than the slant nose, IMO.

Very cool. I'd not heard of those. So Al is the color or what many of the body parts are made of (I'm assuming the latter).

Personally I think it is ugly, but it a rare car. I was never a fan of the Don Johnson era of slant nose 911s. Just my opinion.

The silver car just above is pretty cool Aluminum body slat nose and late enough in the production that the car looks finished and not a hack job.
I actually prefer the lights either down low in the valance like a 935 (like the DP935 above) or as pop-ups.

I'm not a fan of this look with the lights in the bumper.
