Now that I look at that yellow Turbo more closely...

VagScum is right on target--it is as blatantly gay as a rainbow flag or a purple teletubbie. I love Porsche Speed Yellow and it's inspiring that VagScum is evolved enough to be comfortable and proud of his gay motoring pals=Speed Yellow Porsches and to share his profound understanding of the nuances of gay culture to even pick up on this color issue. The world will be a better place when more people are like you--courageously and proudly pass on the obviously gay positive message Porsche has been sending out in their Speed Yellow cars for many, many years. I would not be shocked to find out (VagScum might know the history) that Speed Yellow was planned during WW2 as a way to clandestinely show support for the gay and lesbian German population. After all the, let me borrow part of your avatar, ***** scum were not exactly known for being gay positive.

Here are my textured black HRE Monoblok P40s--they have most likely already been posted but I missed them. There's a lot of really great looking wheels out there. I love RUF RU hyper-silver, all the HREs, and now I covet a set of black 19" BBS CH-R. My last thumbnail shows the set of 18" silver Rousch 3 piece rims I had on the car prior to the HREs. I thought they were fine looking wheels and that they looked great on the car. The switch to the much lighter one piece HREs felt well justified in that I lost about 25 lbs. just in wheel weight. Also, love the Champions on the silver GT2 above--stolen? Very sorry to read that. I don't know how long ago the theft occurred but I hope you got the car back as it's amazing.

C90's 18" Stepped Lip!

White is SWEET, Porka share specs on your car

Porka that is a sweet car, who makes that front bumper, susp mods wheel size and tires, what gives if you don't mind. Also where are all your garden tools hanging in that garage, that thing is nicer then my den.

I like the Champion RS98 or CCW's..... hell just about any wheel/tire combo that fills up the wheel well looks good on the 911.
