    And interesting that they started with a T, and are now calling it an S,
    With discussion here on this site, that only an S is an S…. Only if it started as an S.

    I’ve seen the car in person and it is impressive. As a targa fan I would love to own it. Never imagined it would sell for that much!

    I hope it gets driven. I think they were too conservative, a bit more creative. This was a Porsche Design project, not the factory, correct?

    IMHO black is one of the worst colours for a longhood

    The restored 911 is painted in solid black, the preferred color of F.A. Porsche, and features anodized Fuchs rims. Classic lateral stripes with a Platinum satin finish and integrated Porsche Design lettering decorate the flanks. As a special highlight, the ...........


    hmmm don`t think so...both of his personal cars i`v owned where not black....and a friends ex F.A. 911 is green...and for the one car i still own he has chosen the worst of the 24 available colours... 90ies metallic burgundy red code LC3T(but at least the seats are tartanish green)
