Hey Dave,
It's been a very long winter and I am a warm weather guy! Been in Arizona more due to the rain.
I recall Mark has 3 lift's in the garage thus 9 car's total plus 3 in the house.
With all his car's it's like Dirty Harry "Did I fire 5 or 6 shot's -Do you feel lucky Punk!

Mark, AMAZING color on a Scuderia ! Love the titanium wheel caps ! Can't wait to see your Scud in person !
I talked to Eric at FoS about the wheel caps and he said he sold the last set several days ago, I didn't ask him who did he sell it to, but I was assuming that was you ?
He said he can probably get me a set within 2 weeks !

wow...nice shots jason. the car is a lot of fun. most of you guys saw it at lunch friday. it matches the cs nicely I was amazed when the paint code said "Porsche LB9" under the hood. Gee I wonder why it was 3 months behind 
steve yep i've got room but thank you. yes the camaro is here and i just love it. i've even got a drag race planned in it. just have to figure out how to get the damn dirt off of the black paint
so I can keep up with the Z car I'm racing.

Mark gave me a ride back to Tacoma Friday after our 6-speed lunch. The sound of the car is amazing! When he gets on it, the car is a loud deep howl, then goes into a nice burble on decel. It's also so smooth, you almost don't how fast the thing goes!
The trans is simply amazing! It shifts so fast, smooth & precise! The downshifts get a little throttle blip before the shift, to match revs perfectly. All doing this the car makes Mark sound like Shummi. We got into some stop&go in Fife, the car handled it perfectly, not one jerk, mis shift, or anything.
What amazed me was the interior room, I could stretch out my legs all the way, & still had some room, the seats fit a bigger guy like me. The fit & finish is very, very good. I'd say the "worst" part of the car is the sound system, while looking impressive, it doesn't sound the best over the sound of the car, it gets drowned out by the exhaust. But that can be just a settings thing, & we all know Mark will not read the owners manual to fix it.
He did find the suspension adjustment button, but on the freeway, were unable to test it.
The worst part was getting back to my 993, it felt very loose, slow & oddly extremely quiet. My radio is the same type of old school nav, but the only thing my car does better is the radio. It was almost like when you are @ the track all day, then drive home in the slow mellow somber.
