has nice appreciating currently desirable classic in seemingly good condition, and modified tastefully(subjective)…

lets trash your tire choice. just lol, internet.

all looks like good work so far to me :tup:

i love a duckbill spoiler as much as the next pcarfag…and i would be tempted because you could…but i just don’t think it fits the 993, as well as, pretty much every 911 prior

i think the RS on left has a great not too wild option on it.

Then why bother sharing here? This thing we are on is literally called a forum. If I make something I want it to envoke a reaction. Good or bad. That is the point of creating anything that is visually powerful. Good tires just happen to be something that give me a boner for a car. I get a semi for the car that rocks nt01s on the street.

I like duckbill spoilers but I also really like 993s wingless.

He is not required to envoke a reaction from anyone, it’s his car that he put together for himself. Sorry you weren’t able to get a boner from his tires

I’d be way more impressed if Steve hand sculpted this out of clay. Since we only care about the art and looks of it who cares if it even drives at all.

Don’t get me wrong. This car is gorgeous, I love how it looks and I don’t usually like black on black. And honestly since the point of this car is clearly just a status thing and not the driving experience then do the tires just for the status of it.

Buying an expensive watch isn’t baller cause you can sell it and recoup most of your money. But buying very expensive tires that only last 3,000 miles just cause fuck it, is a truly baller move. Spending money on wasteful expendable items is baller. Having a big house ain’t shit, having servants and a chef work for you is.

Why does anyone care if you’re impressed or not? Thank you for teaching him how to spend his money, hopefully he starts doing things the “right way” now.

It’s slightly disappointing that the car is obviously a cruiser and not going to be raced - but who really cares - I think just as much pleasure can be found from it sitting and looking pretty, than racing.

Can we get back to gratuitous 911 porno pics now

Very well said. Also don’t care about my tires. I didn’t build it to be a scene car either. Otherwise it’d have polished wheels and air bags. I bought it to beat it up on the street. If I wanted a track car I’d buy some cheap $6k car and track the shit out of it. Not some $60k vintage slow 911. Don’t care what they’re “meant” for either. This is meant for me to enjoy. And I have been like crazy putting 2k miles on it in the past month.

Anyways, my dad brother and I grabbed some ice cream this weekend. Enjoy.

FWIW, I completely love the look 🙂

I’m sure we can agree to disagree about tire choices. No biggie in the grand scheme.

If I don’t have pointless things to argue about why am I even on here? And why post pictures of your car if you don’t want to deal with this crap?

required is completely the wrong word. He is not required to post pictures of his car. But if he does, he should expect pointless banter about it. When you share something visual you envoke a reaction by those who see it. They can’t help but react.

If we can’t peacefully banter about tire choice why does a pseudo car forum even exist?
