930 story on Speedhunters..

Speedhunters did a story on my car while they where going to the Gatebil event in Norway this summer. Came out pretty good I think, some facts and figures got lost in translation (up/down) but overall its spot on. Feel free to make any comments here good or bad.

Have had real good help and inspiration from this forum during the years so thank you everybody for that!

Cheers / zeb

That's a nice write up on your cool 930. That's a nice color and good job representing a 930!

Interesting title, re-defined is perhaps not my choice of words.

I think the owner has payed attention to detail and really got the body lines spot on.
I also like the paint, I like how it feels on the eyes and contrasts. I also like the CCW's
and how he played he worked the offsets.

It would appear that the owner has done a good job with detail and balancing the detail exterior and interior. All around a completed car, as opposed to a car that is fast but looks like a project, or fast looking car.

Some cars do look fantastic with aero parts, it can be an improvement. However in the case of the 911, I feel that when you step away from the original design and it no longer resembles a 911 or feels like it is trying to be re-defined what has already and was defined to begin with you are not respecting design language.

I would say, job well done. I would say it is more a case of an owner putting and completing the detailed effort and work and the results are a rather all around completed machine.

Ciao, and good read!

Cool Zeb.
Was not at Gatebil, but wish I was there.

Speedhunter also did a writeup of my friends BMW with Supra engine at this event.
