I'm really pleased the focus is on creating new way of enhancing the traditional. I like the Magnus design and how a small design change can give life to something new.

But "backdating" a 964 to a 3.2/SC Impact bumper look with some modern day and puny looking Fuchs just looks naff. If you're going to do that, you may as well go all out and sign up the Magnus Walker love fest that's currently in vogue and bolt his latest "innovation" on :

I have to say I quite like that.

Sorry, I'll get my coat.......

I'm not trying to keep this thread alive but… Cups look great on this one, I WAS WRONG about writing them off.

Do you want to run 17" or 18"? 17 will limit your tyre choices. Only realy relevant if you are intending to track the car. Are you looking to upgrade the suspension or brakes in the future?

Overall I'm more interested in the look rather than performance. I was drawn to the 964 by it's offer of easy to drive and classically smart appearance and had no idea of the cars capability before I purchased it. I prefer the 18' look.

Yep. I looked at one 8 years ago for £28k and thought it 'a bit dear'.

Its easily the biggest automotive cock up I have ever made.

This is an interesting subject which I am quite passionate about, in fact, I get angry.

Yes I would use it. A lot. I see the increase in value as being a reason to keep using them, ie, you are protected from depreciation and can actually spend money on the car to keep it as it should be, whilst knowing that you could recoup your investment!

It would seem that most owners start to get worried that any increase in mileage will see them broke. What utter bks!

Do buyers of a 2.7RS even look at the odometer? In fact, do they even inspect the car!

Life is short. Enjoy, and keep everything in its true perspective.

I don't naturally go for red but your 964 looks fantastic and the Cup 1's finish it off perfectly. smile
