targa

Kinda like the idea of going retro and stripping the targa band down to bare metal. The new 2014 Targa went retro...so why not make your SC or Carrera look the same way!

Pray it's just a seasonal change thing. I have contributed to the recent "gay" theme and I am "out" as they say. Growing weary. It ain't right.

However, I still have an unusual sense of humor.

And an unusual sense of clothing style, too (skin tight, polyester pants AND shirts) ?!?!?!

I don't even like sun roofs

just something that's going to break and I'm going to have to fix

I got rust issues down in the corner where the sun roof drains on the passenger side

Porsche is very calculating... Mk1 cars usually have round bumpers.
Mk2 cars have square bumpers, aircooled, eg: swb, lwb cars or watercooled... the 996.1 round bumper & 996.2 square bumper... 991.1 round bumpers, 99.2 will have square bumpers...
Mk1 cars started with SS bars, Mk2 have black... 991.1 targa will be no different... 991.2 will be black.
each generation has unique distinction... and they will take different queues from previous generation and copy the design to future generation but with a slight twist... that has always been the 911 ways...

but yeah... going retro is cool...

No I do my own work cut my hair and shave once in a while lol. I think if I had more money than sense I would be more of a Hugh Hefner protege lol. Thanks engine is coming along slowly as time and cash allows. Learning a lot about tig welding along the way.

OK that was mean i shouldnt say bad stuff about someone I have never met. I tend to be a little eccentric my self sometimes which due to my age gets me accused of being a dirty old man.

I stared at this interior as long as I looked at Ken's (best) friends legs.

How in God's name can an interior be so pristine? OK, I see a smidgeon of "puffy" in the sun visors.

Outstanding.
