    yeah they are relatively cheap in UK, europe.

    ridiculous is many respects for a 1980s car.

      Well... at least the car was white, which would have consealed the load I would have spontaneously blown on it.

      So that was the car that Bill Gates bought and couldn't drive... I was just talking about that with my in-laws a couple nights ago.

        I've seen 2 of them before, beautiful cars.

        Speaking of "A Day To Remember", my brother's band is playing with them tomorrow :D

                I dunno, it kinda looks goofy. Looks better in Dakar trim .... ala Rothmans 959. Sure it was the most technologically advanced car at the time, and the engine was a derivative from Porsche's F1 stint in the 80s, but unfortunately it's being compared in the US to modern day supercars since they've just become legal...

                    Front looks so much like the new Beetle. Nice cars - I have sat in one, but did not get to ride in it. No bud vase in it. ;-)

                          I must be the only one who thinks this car looks like fucking ass and doesn't give a shit about it. I followed one for a while in my E30 a while back and didn't think any thing of it. Just another POS Porsche that leaks oil.
