Passed by my (N of Spain ) OPC today & happened to glance upstair to the 1st level where I know they store customers cars (for a fee ) etc.
I had never thought to ask to go up for a gander, but the white 991gt3rs wing I spotted suggested I should make the effort.
The sales chap was very happy to open the gate & accompany me. . . . . well, whoosh ! !
A million € of prime Pork, being stored like "modern art".
The white rs, a stunning lava one (under a cover ) and, the cherry on the cake , a white/green stripe 991R. . . . holy moley.
Which one said the salesman ? "Oh the R, no doubt, and not because of the value " was an easy conclusion (for me anyhow) so. . . . . half a million win on €millions & I could make a cheeky offer.
Unfortunately, as many have remarked on here & elsewhere, none of the 3 of them looked like they had been used (the R didn't even have plates FFS, so, really just being layed-up like a good wine )
Wine is for drinking & Pork is for Driving, so, I left in awe of what Porsche can produce, but, at the same time saddened that the 3 of them are unlikely to be used for any appreciable part of their lives for their intended purpose. :envy:
