I [think] i saw my first Ruf 911... in any case, its at least a turbo, aftermarket wheels, and a Ruf R turbo spoiler.
basically, this is update 1 this week... i think there are going to be three more, as its been a busy week/weekend.... 2 weeks until 355 spyder in-depth :-D ! [the same one in my sig right now]

I don't think thats RUF, seems like it only has the "Turbo" (instead of R Turbo) badge on the back and the exhausts are different etc. I love black-on-black cars though so its still damn cool. :D
Any more pics of the yellow 997 in the group shot?

^^^^^
no Ruf badge on another picture i didn't post... its nice to have some experts when i can't quite identify that last 6% :)
997's are starting to become more common; so sometimes i'm not quite so enthusiastic about them ;) joking of course. ;) the angles available, and the lens i had locked on at the time didn't let for a nice picture of the yellow 997.

I have to say that the first group shoot is great, i like the black M5 it looks so mean :P
And i sure like the looks of the black z6 corvette, maybe its a z06 8)
Thanks nth, for the pics :D

Nice update nthfinity :D The groups shots are nice - but my favourite is the 996GT3... especially the pic you've posted above :wink: Thanks for sharing!!
unfortunately; its "only" a C4S with the aerokit... but it does look great with it :)

^ thats also only a Carrera 4 (not C4S as your filename suggests) of course, but the 997 version.

the combo shots are great! I love the shot of the sting ray too..
I still have yet to see a C6 Z06 in person.. although I've seen a couple E60 M5 on my way to work but they've only been creeping in traffic. Glad to see you're working on your site.

Thanks a bunch nthfinity. This is a cool pictures set with a lots of great CTS-V and Z06 pix. :good:
Do you see some 300C SRT-8 in your area ? Because they seem very rare. :hmm:
I see you took a picture of the Cherokee SRT-8, I'm sure one day you will trade yours for this awesome 4x4 beast. :wink: :twisted:

there is only one 300C SRT-8 in the area. in my travels last week, there was a Charger SRT-8 that passed me; but it was bad lighting, and angles to make it a good picture; but i tried.... i cant help but think they aren't selling well...
about the Jeep SRT-8; it is indeed pretty cool; faster then a Cayenne Turbo in a lot of benchmarks too! and while it may eventually replace the Jeep I have... i need a 5-6 speed manuel sportscar first :wink:
