well, same here, i don't see myself buying a new porsche, i am not ready for all the depreciation yet. getting a used one is much more affordable

Come on Brendan! I've seen the awesome pics you've taken of your car, how come you can't take better pics of your brothers Porsche?

Look at all that clutter in the garage!

Now that's more like it! Take that baby out of the garage and take some nice shots against a better backdrop. Night shots, anything but that garage as the background! The car looks as if it is ashamed of something - hiding in that garage.

The below picture of a HEAVILY MODIFIED 911 by GEMBALLA 996 GTR650 is:
"The SICKEST MOST WANTED PORSCHE on EARTH" IMO.
I do NOT count the Carrera GT Supercar, cause for that $$$ I would choose:
a Murcielago + SL65 + AudiRS6 + Navigator and enough $$$ left over to MOD them all!
