As for the car swap, never missed the boot space the Cossie had?

Nice Cossie, what year Turbo (if it is) is that in the garage? In the states they had aero-kits to make a carrera look like a Turbo, thats why I am not going right ahead and calling it that.

Yep! Another 911! 8) That was my father's...but he sold it 1 year ago...

About the Cossie's boot: Not really! I don't need a big boot!

The black one is a unique Rinspeed Turbo 3.3 Speedster (330HP). It was built by Rinspeed for the Geneva Motorshow in 91. Don't like too much the wing but we needed it for the intercooler.

The old porsches have something over them that appeals even me as an 19 year old.

Not crazy about the wing either but the cars looks good! For a -91 it's a fine car, cherish it well...

then if Gis get's a Supra he surely wont be moving to Switzerland. Supras look horrible without spoilers along with RX7's imo.
