Thanks!

Yeah, not too many 993tt's on the road these days. I rarely see 993's in general and even less so wide bodied cars.

It was interesting to do the photo shoot with the 997tt. that car is sooooo much bigger than the 993 in every way. You can really tell when they're side by side.

She's still a pretty girl though and definately curvaceous even by today's standards!

Kevin - Thank you for your kind words. Hope you like some of the pics I took?

True on how narrow the front of our 993TT are. I had it on my lift the other day and the front tires barely fit onto the inside ramp. My CS on the hand fit snuggly.

Nicest red 993 ever ...you could see by the pictures of both *** the 997 will never be on the same scale as a 993 widebody.

Vince,

Man those cars look nice together. Stradale is a dream!

Javier, I'd love to check out your ride one of these days. Still trying to connect with Steve. We'll make it happen one of these days!

Kevin,

Steve contacted me not too long ago about getting together... he's up in Santa Cruz now. We have to make a day of it and get all three in pics... how cool would that be!
