Obin, I was watching some show about Corey Feldman and they showed a clip of one of his movies. It was called "Redline". I saw the front end of what I think was a black 928 but the clip of the movie wasn't long enough for me to be certain. Has anyone seen this? Can anyone confirm?

I don't know how well you remember the plot but.... the red 928 is in one of the outside shots of the Maitlaind's(dead people) hou se after the new family moves in. They are having a party with their big city friends and the shot is just before it.

Obin, I just thought of a couple more. If you ever watch Speedvision during the day (when everyone is at work) there is always this infomercial on called "Motor Millions". Some guy's bull**** way of making millions of dollars by buying and selling cars. Anyway, he is always standing in front of a red 944S2 cabriolet and a black 911 (can't remember if it's 964 or 993 based). Also, I walked in the house when my parents were watching Candid Camera. They were playing a joke on people by building brick walls around their cars while they were parked in a parking lot of a grocery store. There was a red 944 in the parking lot. Luckily for Candid Camera, the 944 was not one of the cars they were building the fake walls around. Does that count?

thanks everyone! offhand, my comp[uter at home crashed again, so i am using my server as my primary computer (yes, i have a server at my house, don't all "Big Brothers"

).

i'l be updating the movies page. i saw that Motor Millions thing and the 944S2 cabriolet almost made me choke on a root beer i was drinking. i've only seen ONE of those in my lifetime. they are RARE.

and yes, candid camera counts

Obin,

Where is your movie page? I am guessing, from these posts that you list Porsche-sitings in various flicks. How about this"Some Kind of Wonderful" when Eric Stolz and that red-haired girl are attending the big party at the end there is a platinum or gold 928 parked in the driveway.

heh, i just got back from Syracuse. my CDRW decided to die and rob me of money that was supposed to go to my 924 engine's high-rpm springs. oh well.

the movie site is at:

i'm going to try and edit it as soon as i install this new CDRW. i have a DJ mix that HAS to get burned soon (doing a party next friday).

thanks!
