Our local Porsche club here in Toronto has a friendly annual concours, and some nice cars turned up this year, including a 73 RS and a slant nose RUF, both the real thing.........
there was quite a good turnout, and the weather held off despite being threatening.


























MY Personal favourite was a simply immaculate 912, looking like the 901 prototype......





Pic below is the 901 prototype from the POrsche archives:

Very nice, the more i look at the old air cooled porsches the better they look. Can't wait for magnus and his urban outlaw movie

not sure if we're seeing the same pics, but that black gt3 has its sunroof open.

and i find this whole swapping out factory incandescent for LED aftermarket tail lights ("dectane" brand) to be a complete chav mod. the more exclusive and expensive a car, the more one should leave it well enough alone. cheapens the look of car and the owner who chose to put them on.

blue light special fetish and now an LED one. smh
