Nice automotive memories that you have accumulated... life is too short to drive boring cars as they say

That Gullwing is a dream, so much new tech from the time. When I visited the Stuttgart museum about 30 years ago, the Mercedes guide asked our group what our favourite car was: I was the only one to mention the GW and he nodded appreciatively. I assume it was his favourite too!
Congrats on your wedding too: I am running towards 15 years and some days are easier than others!

Vinnie, your 911 is awesome. Original Fuchs wheels are the cherry on the cake. The engine bay is making engine sound trough my screen. Compare to the TVR of a few days ago, your Porsche is definitely the winner of the two cars. Here a Porsche picture: ...

Saw this in my wife's garage every day for 20 years (1977-1997)! It was an "upgrade" from the vipergreen 2.4 "T" (1974-77) that she took very good care of - as you can see Cheers from Old Europe RIchard ...

the RS feels truly ancient. It is unstable at high speeds just as the 2.4T was. No noticeable effect of better high speed stability due to the ducktail. Acceleration was brisk of course but without the punch, for instance, of a 3.3 Turbo when the turbo ki...
