Spent a sunny afternoon browsing round the Porsche's at Lancaster off the A12 today. Not buying until later on although was good to see what's about. Saw a very mean looking black boxter with black wheels. Looks very tasty - wouldn't mind that colour theme on a 911. Their demonstrator 911 cab in deep blue looked very tempting, bathing in the sun. The way the hood stows away looks neater than previous models. Then my faveorite turned up, after the service guy finished it's run out - silver 993tt. Sounds very intimidating with a sports exhaust. Love that agressive rear stance!

Decisions, decisions. 90% certain about a 993tt for the outright speed, it's just for the same price a new model 911cab looked sooooo good, inside and out! Speed or a tan? Arghh! Girlfriend loves the cab too. I've got a few months to decide. Am I being silly thinking a new 911cab won't be fast enough or handle as solidly day to day?

I know! I was only ever going to get the t4. It's just the cab looked really good today. Wouldn't have crossed my mind if it were grey and miserable, as per usual.

They also had a carrera tarted up to look like a GT3. Wouldn't say no to the real thing! Looks very stylish. Has the slight benefit of that modern interior over the 993 too.
