    993RS is a beyond cool car and RHD ones are quite rare. I also have a killer 930 Turbo SE that is the same year as my GTO and they are an interesting contrast

    A Cobra inspired hot rod. It is not a replica but a custom built car using a full spaceframe chassis, TVR running gear and 5L engine, serious suspension, 940kg, 52% weight on rear, etc. Car will leave a CS for dead in the corners. No need to even mention straight lines

    What kind of restoration would a 993 RS need? :confused:

    A 15,000 GB pound UK restoration! The car is completely gone through and every thing is cleaned or when needed replaced inside, outside and underneath to make the car almost as brand new. A couple of little examples; the seat bolsters were worn so replaced and restitched to match. The main part of the original seats had a multi-color design and were retained showing a nice patina of wear. The nose is resprayed red and then clear coated. Owners are literally lining up to get their 993RS cars worked on. 3 were in progress at the time the red RS was finished and shipped off to Hong Kong.

    Yes. We went to container port to eat snacks and watch the ships and cranes. Good visibility from the Cobra!

    I love the FF. As someone who has been lusting after the 456 Venice for years I couldn't believe it when the factory announced a shooting brake. If a 456 is not the next F car in my stable the FF will be. The configuration tool on the Ferrari website is great fun, and I've been able to convince myself that if you don't opt for the shields it is less likely to look like a Z4.
