That's more like a nightmare! I once had a nightmare that I went to the Porsche website, and every single one of their cars were re badged Mercedes cars, with Porsche headlights. So, there was a minivan, a bunch of ugly luxury cars etc. It was horrible.

50 units of 2006MY Carrera S coupe with X51 Powerkit commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Porsche Club of America (PCA). It came in Azurro California (from the 356), and a bunch of special commemorative badgings.

Someone else apparently had that dream too... ...and decided to take it one step further.

Carrara you are just pissed they don't make this in a car you can get....Hot Wheels and Matchbox hasn't pulled the trigger on this particular look.

I think that car looks GREAT.


Anyone know which wheels these are?

^ Mark I believe those are a standard/optional wheel on the .2 C4S. Seen them a lot, OEM for sure, just colored. I think CEO has them in black on his C4S.


A member in BC has one of those blue 2005 PCA cars. Might have replaced it with an Aqua .2 RS, or has both, forget his username.

The PCA Club car is awesome. I have seen a few in person and they are great. And to date, i have seen every single car Porsche offers BUT the Sport Classic and the 997 Speedster. Hope to see them sometime soon.....

Bottom Line: Porsche is awesome and each variant of the 911 is special in every way. Sure, on the "internet and forums" everyone wants a Paint to Sample 997 GT2RS but in reality a base 911 is a COOL CAR and when compared to the masses of SUV's and Minivans each one is sweeeet!
