A guards red TT cab.

Picked up on Thursday! Weather sucked on Friday but I found a little sun in Marin county Saturday afternoon.

I'm trying to get it broken-in within a few weeks. More road-trips are in order! Hmmmm. There's a great micro-brewery in Eureka and I'm kind of thirsty...

(First attempt at attaching a photo...)

EDIT: Yes, this is a 15+ year old thread.

Very nice. I just got a Gaurds Red C4S and love the color. I was thinking about painting the center console red so it is nice to see yours.

Enjoy the trip to the Micro Brewery

congrats! beautiful red. i thought red porsches look kinda orangish, but your car is a deep rich red.

i couldn't find any reds for a few weeks when i was buying my car, and silver happened to be available...

so what mods are planned?

hope you can hold out for longer than i did!
It took exactly one week until i spent some change to get wheels and moldings painted, ssk, clears, etc....

i'm looking into a cooler shift **** and a silver crest while i'm waiting for my wheels to arrive.

congrats again!
Beautiful!

Thanks! It does have a touch of orange to it-- it's the classic Guards Red you remember. The color is probably distorted a bit by my digital camera and/or the cloudy-day lighting.

No plans for mods yet. Eventually, I may put a more aggressive exhaust on it.

Welcome to the Guards Red Family!

That color rocks! I'm happy to see that other folks are trying other colors than silver and black!

Excellent ride to boot!

Nice! I know from my own pictures that Guards Red always seems orangish in pictures. Enjoy it.

tsky, welcome to the Guards Red cab club. Beautiful car. Suggest you get some RejeX on that baby ASAP to even improve the shine and ease the maintenance. I live in Los Altos and hope to see you on the road. Good luck with the new wheels.
