I notice there was no 356 envy on your list , and I sure wouldn't trade my Boxster for a slantnose. If I owned a slantnose, it would stay in the garage until the folks at Krause could sell it for me. I'm pretty sure I'd want to keep the rest of the cars in that photo.

I didn’t list the 356 because you could only see the front 1/4 panel in the picture. It’s actually a 356 Speedster. There was no way to take a picture of the whole room, and hence my picture is actually only 1/2 of it. Behind the camera was a bunch of various limited production Turbos (another slant, a Turbo S, and a 3.6L Turbo ect) and a 911 RS and '04 911 GT3RS.

This was at MidAmerica Funfest in Effingham IL.

I completely ran out of space on my web server, so I only have a few pictures uploaded. Here is the GT3RS

Yer preaching to the choir.

I promise this will be my last "nut" joke!
