The 356 is beautiful...

Are you sure that's a '78 turbo? Looks like a '77 3.0 ltr non-intercooled car. The tail on '78 and later cars was enlarged to fit the intercooler and more powerful 3.3 ltr motor. Still fun and a hand full.

I had an '88 turbo factory slantnose; too much turbo lag for my tastes, though the car was extremely fast when the boost kicked in. The '88s were a bit heavier than a '77 as well.
