Up in Noosa north of Brisbane for the build of RWB Senshi (997.2 C2S 6MT). Nakai san took a photo with my Mrs between cigarettes which was nice, several other RWBs were there along with a whole lot of people at GT Collective Noosaville.

Anyone else notice the little Fiat 500?

With some people, you wouldn't want to know what their living room looks like.

A rare sight here in the US. Nissan Silvia S15, might be a Spec-R as it has 4 piston front brakes. I'm not the biggest JDM fan but it is always a bit exciting seeing a car never offered in our market. Watching Top Gear and playing Forza Motorsport 2, Ryuji Miki's 2004 D1 championship winning Top Secret S15 really encapsulated dirting in the mid 2000's. The "Mona Lisa" in Toyko Dirt cememnted it into the public zeitgeist.

Those Top Secret cars in the early 2000's were prime time Super Street fantasies of this here teenage boy.
If the opportunity arose for me to pick up an S15, I probably wouldn't hesitate.
Same with an FD RX-7.
Those Blitz wheels on the one pictured above are insane! Would love to see the engine bay of that one.
Looks well done!

While I'm not the biggest fan of his cars, I appreciate his passion and love to watch him work.
I had the opportunity top meet him when he came to Tampa.

One of my favorite paint jobs of all time. Got to see it at Laguna Seca in the late 90s.

Great turnout for an early morning Porsche event, the only time I'll ever turn up at a Golf club as it's my least favourite sport. Lots of cool green colours which are my favourite, Oak Green, Lighter Green, Forrest Green etc.

Lol eh to each their own.
The 997.2 3RS is probably my grail 911. At least for "modern" 911's.
I also lust after a 964 RS. Not sure if you consider that modern or not...I feel like its on the bubble.

Good Sir, that is in fact Ruby Stone Red, and how dare you compare that exquisite color to the likes of a dog penis!
🤣
Seriously though I'm of the opinion that RS Porsche's NEED to be a crazy color.
Like, it should be a rule, with silver being the only exception...and maybe white.
Maybe.
