Wow Neil thanks for posting. I showed the commercial to my wife and children. No exaggeration; this is a near duplicate of my experience: Guards red Porsche Turbo with the huge hip and whale tale, circa 1976-1977, had my jaw hit the floor. It was a dream for the next 30 years.

930 Turbo (factory slant-nose) was my dream car 24 yrs ago. loved those hood vents and side vanes. commercial brought all those feelings back. those were much simpler times great posts now-a-days just enjoying my modded 997tt when ever i can. THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE!

Great thread. I have seen a couple of commercials and the new one about the turbo, i think the one posted here (first post) is the best one. Thanks Neil
