Gosh, I would love to have just ONE of those cars.

And no, I ain't talking about the VW van either, LOL.

If I had to choose just one, i'd go blue Porsche 911 speedster #1, BMW Z8 #2 and the 355 #3

I'm sure my list is different than everyone elses.

355 - although I hate the yellow on that car
Z8
Hmmm then either the 996 GT3 (I think that yellow car is that) or the cayman gt4

I'd take the Z8 and drive (damn the frame weakness issues…)

Maybe its because my dad had one, but no interest in a 911 Speedster. They really have not aged well (and that looks like the 964 version -- the '89 Speedster had squared off mirrors). My dad's was an '89, white with black top and grey interior...

Agreed. i don't understand why people want them so much now.

yeah was wondering if someone could name all the cars. I will admit with the 911s I go a bit crossed eyed.

You've been wrong an awful lot on here recently.

I can't find any instances where that statement is true.

Bah. The Z8 was OK when new, but just looks tacky and plasticky today. It has aged *terribly.*

Van is sweet though

From the Fuchs on the van and the company it's keeping, should I assume it's a Porsche engine swap?

The 911s are pretty sweet, but that's a lot of different variations on similar flavors. Assuming this is one person's garage, I'd probably get rid of a few of those (the Speedster and the whale-tailed 964 Carrera 4, to start) to make some room for something else.

And I probably wouldn't keep both a Spyder and a GT4.

In fact, now that I think about it, I think my (reasonable) Porsche garage would be a 964 RS America, a 997 911 GT3, and a 2012 Boxster Spyder.

I like how this guy went from a 2.4 to a 3.2 to a turbo 3.3.
