Here’s a little excerpt about the Porsche 964 from Wikipedia:

CLASSIC GARAGE: Land Rover Defender

I was a little torn as to where I should park the Land Rover Defender – in the Classic Garage or in the Dream Garage.  I opted for the Classic Garage for 2 reasons: 1) They don’t sell them in the United States anymore and 2) the more vintage Defenders are cooler.
The Defender is well [...]

CLASSIC GARAGE: Factory 5 Type 65 Coupe

The Factory 5 Type 65 Coupe is a replica of the original cars built by Carroll Shelby between 1964 and 1965 to compete in the GT class.  Factory 5 has done a great job sticking true to the original and I definitely wouldn’t mind having one in my own driveway.

CLASSIC GARAGE: CDC ‘67 Flashback

I was reading through a Robb Report in the airport when I first saw this car.  It was so beautiful that it brought tears to my eyes.  Well, not literally brought tears – just figurative tears.
In any case, it was basically the car that Steve McQueen would have driven in Bullitt if I was the one [...]
