    Nope. Just an automatic with a poseur shifter. My Dream Porsche remains a 964 restomod, Singer or similar.

    I'd even take an earlier SC...

    I’d be down with that too. I have a missed opportunity on a 911SC from years ago that I wouldn’t mind rectifying.

    The scene where they’re digging the high center bottom of the car out from the sand is probably what you’ll spend most of the time doing with this thing. Maybe packed rally trails this would be a monster, but they don’t build things this low to run on surfaces like the one they show. Look up Ford Raptor R or Ram TRX for the proper more than 700hp vehicle made for this.

    One like this was parked at my oil change shop. 775HP? He changes the spark plugs every 5000 miles.

    Now that’s a car. The blue was probably the best color for that generation, but the gray might have been second best. Lovely stealth bomber right there.

    Maybe until you look at the list of known flaws. Remedying those could cost a pretty penny.

    Oh sure. But that’s just condition, I was talking more aesthetics.

    From today's WRUW, heading to Amelia Island with a good friend and his car. He purchased this car when he was 16 years old, sold it at 21, then repurchased it when he was 58 years old. Great story and a priceless car for him.
