Ever seen a RED Carrera GT?

I did today.. I saw it, I heard it, I touched it, I drooled on it

This was definitely a case of being in the right place at the right time . After the Geneva Show earlier in the week, I headed up to Stuttgart for what’s become now a fairly regular pilgrimage: Museum, Tour, etc. Over at one of the buildings, all the sudden everyone (I was with a large group from a French/Swiss Porsche Club) turns when we hear a VERY LOUD, great sounding car coming up: A Guards Red CGT. It even drew a lot of PAG employees out to look as they had apparently not even seen a running, undisguised CGT before.

I can’t begin to tell you how really, really RIGHT they got the exhaust on this thing. It has me thinking about where to find $400k . I was impressed by the “study” car; I was impressed by the car on the stand in Geneva; but this simply blew me away.

Once again, here’s a link to a bunch of photos of my day in a Yahoo gallery.

A Day In Zuffenhausen

One tidbit for GT3 waiters: I actually saw (but could not photograph) a US-spec GT3 that was fresh off the production line. Two good-news items: It looks “euro” low (like the GT2 it doesn’t seem jacked up for the US), and they are using the new painted rear bumperettes like the other “narrow-body” 911’s (but unlike the ugly black ones on Turbos, etc.).

Let me know if you have questions on any of the photos.
