German Looker to be featured in Feb Practical Performance Car Magazine

He he he. I'd watch out or this might turn into the GL/Euro look debate on VZi! ;-) I only wanted to post 1 or 2 pics since there would be some proper decent photos in the mag. In all honesty, I don't necessarily deem the car a GL-er. It's supposed to show my influences more than subscribe to a single style. So the sleeper thing is important to me, but for *me* the main criteria for GL is brakes, handling and usually type 4 power, of which I have aimed for handling and power, and deemed the brakes good enough for my current use of the car. There's also a strong porsche influence inside the car....

Congrats on the feature. Lets see some pics! Never heard of that mag, is it available in Canada?

PPC is quite a small mag in the UK, but it's my favourite, so I'm dead pleased. Does this gain me a bit of GL credibility?

2145cc (96mm bore 74mm stroke), 9.1:1 comp, 44x38 valves, Webcam 86c cam, dells, built by stateside tuning, one-off stainless exhaust, etc...

Fully re-trimmed porsche interior, with back seat trimmed to match front. Cloth chosen to look as stock as possible. More sleeper I'm afraid, but hopefully cool to those who understand and notice these things.... You can maybe just make out the porsche steering wheel.
