almost missed it :oops:
jumped on my bike and did some short-curts to catch him again, ufff
after chasing the car for a few minutes, skipping all red lights, I was ahead of him and ready to shoot :fuck:

one of my first panning shots I did with the Sony V-3, what do you think of it ?

That ain't a GT2, they started in the 993 series.....not before. ;)

Love the 993TT though, such a sexy car which is rare to see here.

Thanks for the report, and rice = Honda S2000. :D

I adore the de-badged RS6 Plus! Too bad for the side mirrors, should have painted them too!

Not sure what exactly that 964 was. Not a GT2 afaik since the "GT2" name didn't exist back then. And it has rear whiper and rear seats, so definitely not a "GT". Actually even the 993 "GT2" was in fact just called the 993 GT. Only later we started to refer to it as the GT2; only after the 996 GT2 was born.

Now, an RS? Just heavy tuning? Don't know.. did the real RS have rear seats?

[Wutputt]

Nice street sightings! The 964 with the GT-style wing looks brutal. And I love the 993TT 's. But the last one isn't a Turbo S. It has the Turbo S rear wing and the Turbo S logo. But the owner missed the logo on the wheels and the car doesn't have the air ducts in the rear wheel arches.

^ thanks to the experts :good:

[davide]

wow, nice sightings! :)

you got my sightings whipped with a stick ;)

[pzgren]

did the real RS have rear seats? nope, they're only equipped with carpets.

i think it's a modified turbo because of the wide body and two exhausts, the RS mods only have one exhaust.
but an awesome looking car anyway! nice catch dude :P
