Yes, this counts as a unicorn, even though I have seen 3 or 4 others in the flesh, as far back as 2007. The split between flashy and bleh is actually even. For a Porsche model, that is pretty great to see so many in real colors
Porsche Carrera GT
Porsche 911 Carrera 4S
None of the Zagatos were were hoping for showed up to Cars and Cigars. In the meantime, have a Porsche 911 Carrera 4S.
Unrelated to this week’s events
These cars remain crazy fast, yet innocuous. They look like a Cayman with some HGH. They sound like a Prius. they are as forgiving as a 1976 Turbo when you erroneously lift throttle in a curve like you might in a normal car (HINT: everything you know about controlling a car does not apply.)
Anyhoo, one rolled up to C&C. Usually, they’re rare birds. Not so this week of all weeks.
And yeah, EVERYBODY looked at it and said, “that’s the kind of car that one guy died in.” EVERY BODY.
Tomorrow is Yesterday
Yes, a Porsche 356 vs. a Carrera GT IS kind of like a Starfighter vs. the Enterprise.
It’s been a long time since we’ve seen one in town. Not 23rd century vs. 1968 long, but long enough. Yes, there are some more beauty shots, after the break.
I Like Big Butts
