How dare I? Won't happen again.

Must be a generational thing. As a young cat, I adore a lowered (NOT STANCED) 930 with a crazy motorsport inspired widebody and aggressive setup. I love the RWB look, but the older guys prefer the sedate stock look with lots more altitude.

**** resale, drive it like ya stole it. have fun.

Having had my 76 since 85 I've seen many trends. DP was huge then, they look 85 ricer to me now. Gemballa pretty out there but so gaaaaaaayish now. Ruf cool then still cool. I don't mind the looks of the RWB's but I sure wouldn't mod that direction.

In fact as an older typical 930 owner I'm not doing anything else ever to my car. I promise

Strangely I've gravitated back to the stock look and would go back to it just to sell it if I ever had to sell.

You should see threads in the 911 forum when the geriatric bastages get in their knitting circles discussing if a 911 of any kind looks good with a tail on it; seems many of the geezers prefer the VW-bug look!

Cheers Ronald; meanwhile, when I get my fancy-pants Griffiths A/C charged this spring (the PO installed one hose wrong, and it VIBRATED itself into explosive R134 orgasm) I'll have to check my temps. $2600 in parts (again, PO's mulah) should get me below 40 F no?!?

Seriously. 930 guys are no worse or better. The "original 1980 tires" TV dinner club is everywhere.

Brent, you will easily get into the 40s, possibly below even, depending on how many extra condensers there are. Griff's gear and service/tech support is top dog. I had never heard of his shop when I began building my a/c, piecemeal style, but am very familiar with him now. Getting one of his kits is definitely the way to go if one can afford it, and doesn't want to mix and match parts - also an excellent choice for a novice a/c guy since his tech support sets the bar.

Agreed on the "930 guys" part of your post - plenty of the similar stuff over here. I'm sure that others would say that I start my own knitting circle every time the subject of dilivar studs comes up over here (and the laugh-out-loud subject of "valuation", too, buttofcourse)! I didn't mean my "you should look at the 911 forum . . ." as a dig on the forum or 911 owners in general (for once ), but know that some/many of the peeps that post over here do not look at that forum.

Good to know 'bout Griff, because while the temps in CO top out in the low 90s usually, I am a hairy werewolf and need ice out of the vents on a 75 degree day to avoid developing TexASS. I'm just glad the PO footed the bill

I also don't think all aversion to RWB is due to cutting up an original 911/930. I know guys with pretty hot-RODded 911s that dislike RWB, just for aesthetic reasons. But the keeping it stock knitting circle really harshes my buzz, man... I'm reminded of the famous line from Glickenhaus about not driving your Ferrari.

You're all just making yourself look like A holes...

Back to the actual topic. I don't like all RWBs, but I think there's a few really badass ones. The white rs america style 930 that was built for the guy at rotiform (i think) is really badass, and the green atlanta car is pretty cool to. If you ever watch the idlers races they're full of rwb racecars that are really cool. And ultimately, to each his own. I'm not going to bash a guy that's making a living doing what he loves and being creative. The fundamentalists are never going to change though (whats new), their just going to whine about people doing anything they don't think is acceptable. I mean the only post I've made on pelican was about wheel fitment on my longhood and the only response i got was "keep the fuchs". I mean yea, I like the fuchs, but I like doing things that are different better, and some people can't accept anything that's different...
+1

GREAT point on the fuchs wheels. Some cars would look 50x better if correct wheels were fitted on them and not the cheapest fuchs without a lip they could find..

I took a little drive to Calgary a couple weeks ago to visit some friends, and check out the RWBYYC build at tunerworks. The paint and fit and finish of the bodykit was nice, although I found it a little disappointing that they didn't really fix up the interior, or do anything to the motor, bone stock.

The place my buddy Mark gets his RX7 FD tuned at in Philly was hosting the newest RWB build that has been finished in the past few days. Sent me a few pics on snapchat. Pretty sweet!! More pics probably posted on the IG page etc.

Turns out they completed the yellow one and also a lighter green build.
Here's a few more pics from a quick search. None of these are mine but thought I would share.

Wheel set up and color is on point!!
