I've been trying to do it but I can't seem to angle it nicely. Next time I'm there (this weekend) I'm going to try. I wanted to make a new "Justification for Higher Education" image.

Now that is a real man's garage. Incredible. Don't think i've ever seen a white 996gt2, or a 993gt2 in the states.

There are a few, I believe this is the only white 996GT2 there is with red deviated stitching though, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

The owner is a very cool mellow guy. I met him a few months ago and never knew he had such a collection. (He never mentioned it) Truly a humble person who enjoys the fruits of his labor....

They generally are. Unless of course they buy the cars solely to talk about them/impress people, which case of course, they lose the humility.

I had no idea a collection like this existed in my neck of the woods..

He doesn't like to talk about it at all, he was actually astonished by all of the comments towards his cars and how everyone thought how beautiful they are. He really is probably one of the most humble people I've encountered in my entire life. Definately a person that deserves the chance to own all of these amazing cars. Although I'm pushing for a CGT... ahem..

Sam at Speed Gallery has a silver replica 993 GT2 as well. They are pretty stunning. He uses his car though.

I don't think so... You are welcome to come along if there is a drive afterwards. Hopefully the weather is good and we'll get to take those pictures afterall.

Thats the kind of guy you like to see with the necessary $$ to buy such nice cars. Its the guy that buys an Enzo or Lambo, solely so he can talk about it and be seen in it that bothers me.

Ive heard the owner of the P345 (enzo transformation by Pinfarina) is a similarly mild-mannered guy with no desire to brag about his ABSURD collection.
