Its out of my realm some what, but its one of those I would regret not having in my collection if it sold out.

Side note it was purchased at Collector's Studio, simply delicious place. They were very welcoming and awesome treat for the senses and historical buff. Favorite piece with the authentic Enzo Ferrari jacket a leather shoes, a bit creepy but sooo interesting on the flip side.

Yes! LOL if it wasn't for Joey asking we would have missed it. Some of the stuff on display places you in a state of ah and amazement. Some really special and expensive stuff that you and I could potentially own :money: :money:

Great way to wrap up my long weekend with these two long awaited gems. Jface gave me an awesome deal on the facelifted G55 (still keeping my fingers crossed for the G63; although when I spoke to Steffi, there were no plans). But the savings was somewhat offset on the S63 as I ended up spending about $35 more than I had wanted. At the end of the day I think I still came out ahead and have no regrets. I was planning on sending these both away to be painted white but they're both perfect right now. You know what they say if it ain't broke.. Now I can comfortably sell my pre-facelift G55.

Nice add! They look great in silver, no need to waste the $$ on white.

I only collect sports cars, but if I didn't, those two would be high on my wish list. Great adds, congrats.

GTS models are simply top-notch, In my opinion. Really impressed with both, more so than the 964 RS 3.8 I already have.

Love the Targa....a timeless classic!

Speaking of Porsches, I just bought this. When I saw the price, no way was I going to bypass it!

I bought it from Model Car World, the same people I bought the Caddy from.

Philip, those TSM 935s are like the bargain of the century.
