Mexico Blue is my favorite color. I wish I had the nerve to buy it.

For example, our cars have a smiling face. Doesn't the 993 look kind of depressed?

Thanks guys! I love this car! Coming from a really well sorted 98C2S by way of a stock powertrain tight 96 turbo, I feel like I have the best of both worlds: quick, light, nimble, tight and powerful. I love the clutch feel, the gearbox, the exhaust note, the rev-happy engine, the immediate and progressive power delivery, the tight suspension...oh, and it's really blue!

The Dymags needed new tires (flat spots), as did the stock wheels. Plus, I need to get tire hangers before swapping, and I just haven't had time. But to answer your question, HELL YES I WANT THE DYMAGS! Between the unsprung weight savings over stock of the PCCBs and the weight savings with the Dymags, this car is not only fast but is a particularly quick and nimble example of the breed.
