    Anybody guess what these are??Hint, they are very Italian. And for some reason, I leave the garage one night, I come back in a few days and there are more of them! Enjoy looking!||

    Yes, the 928S4 is a great car, it is the only P-car that I would consider buying and keeping.

    You should have kept it.

    Oh Jesus! I don't understand why he didn't just sell it!

    Hopefully it will one day be brought back to driving condition:)

    Did you just send it to a shop Euro308, or did you turn it into a restoration project. Either way, would love to hear some details of what needed it to be done to restore it to road-worthy shape. Seems like a very interesting project.

    Here's a pic of my replica.

    Also, not the best resolution, but 2 pictures of the Stars from "Spy Kids" sitting in my car at a Wrap Party we had after Spy Kids 2 was finished. They were actually some very nice kids and had alot of respect for my car.

    We had it sent out to a shop.. It was so bad than when we went to take it out of the corner of the garage and push it out because it wouldnt start, the tires had huge flat spots on them, so as the car would roll out it would be smooth than PLUMP. It killed me to see it.

    As far I know the car needed a new clutch wich i dont undestand why concidering it only had about 6000 miles on it..(car currently has about 8500 on it now) complete new fuel system, and somthing with the suspenion from sitting for so long.. it was a few years ago so i dont remeber in great detail. The engine got a complete tune up (not rebuild) It ran all and all about 6 or 7 thousand dollars. The car today starts right up but has an iffy idle to it.

    It was coverd and sat in a heated garage all its life so the cars body is flawless. As to why he just didnt sell it, im not really sure but im glad he didnt hehe

    Thanks! :D

    The visual modifications you see are subtle. AIR chin splitter and 17x8 and 17x9 993 Cup II's.

    Beneath the hood (or bonnet for the Euro types), I went through two seperate setups.

    The first was a simple Authority Stage II software upgrade and some boost control. This one was more peaky, but ran dangerously lean in the mid range. The second was a Guru setup. Simple software and boost control again. Somewhere in the neighborhood or 250 RWHP depending on the tempurature.

    Very addictive after about 3500RPM as Im sure the other 951 owners on this thread can attest to. :D

    I believe he bought it from Naples motorsports or thier sister dealership Baystate Motorsports.

    I remember because I remember seeing his picture somewhere else online.
