Porsche 917 inspired ball and egg chairs

I just saw these babies in the British classic car mag Octane. I already have a similar (cheaper) reproduction copy of this type of ball chair, in plain white, and they are great fun. Now all I need...

I sold my 1973 2.4S and got myself a 1994 993. I just wasn't using the S often enough to justify keeping it. It needed a better home.

I miss the noise, the looks, the instant acceleration, the...

Any Porsche "must see or do" things in Santa Cruz, CA?

I'll be spending all of January in Santa Cruz, CA - my first trip to the US. Is there anything that the committed owner of a 73S should see or do while in the area? Porsche-related, of course! ;) I...
