I know there are some porsche fans on here. I also know there are some porsche haters, but I defy you to hate this thing after watching the video...

It'll always be the ultimate Porsche to me.

Classic style, modern engineering. It's perfect.

The early cars had a small oil cooler in the right front arch (oil isused to cool the engine as well as air)
The 964 which these are based has a large cooler infront of the o/s front wheel at an angle.
With the setup of the early wings and bumper there is no space for the cooler infront of the wheel so it is relocated in the front tub

another issue is you cant fit one big enough in the arch

Things like this make me tick.

Im not all fussed with race cars, that kind of no comprimise mentality is almost too easy. I like the challenges they are conquering to make it work as an everyday, everyman car. At home going over speedbumps outside your local school as it is on an Mway or Broad.

Engineering porn.

I was massively upset when the price was revealed
£150k could have bee a reality, but £300 - £500k, I very much doubt it

Think that'll happen? The guy in the video does say that he wants people to be able to buy his stuff if they can't afford the full thing. I'd get a 964 just for that bodykit!

I'm deeply thinking about getting another 964 and back dating it. Got a friend that has one done by Paul Stephens. I've scruteneered every square inch of it
