If I ever have the means, the first car I'm buying is a 12C. There's just something about it.

Yeah, I work for them - I am the head of the photography team. Jeremy Cliff is also on board. We are scheduled to have 2 events at Autobahn this year, you should come!

That's awesome. I love his work too.

Absolutely! I would love to. I'm really going to try to get out for a lot of events this summer, and track the ST, too.

560SEC. Pretty rare, no?

Photo blocked at work, but if I'm remembering my W126 correctly, not too uncommon. Precursor to the S-Class Coupe & CL.
Still nice cars, my grandfather had one for a while after a 560SL. The SEC drove pretty well for a large/heavy car.

it's "rare" because it's an old car, not for any other reason

nice spot regardless

Not the most desirable by any means, but this thing was in really good shape. I remember wanting one pretty badly when they were new.

Pretty good day yesterday and this morning.

<iframe src="https://www.flickr.com/photos/rphilman1/13624075144/in/photostream/player/" width="1440" height="1080" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe>

Is it a Turbo S? I couldn't catch a glimpse in time.

Loved hearing this bad boy peel away for the turn.

Nice S8.

I hate how Flickr has changed the embedding process

That 911 isn't a Turbo, it's a regular 911 that has a different rear spoiler and some black crap on the side

Yeah me too... I don't really like the changes Flickr is doing. Oh well, I just hope they improve it.

Okay, the spoiler threw me off. And the wheels look like the 996 version. I wonder if they were aftermarket.

I had a brand spanking new 911 Turbo S fly by me while I was sitting at a light this past weekend. I had my windows down and my god that thing sounded amazing! I told my little boy that was a Porsche Turbo and he repeated it and said I like that car lol. Wish I got a shot of it.

Not rare, but the most popular car for F1 drivers in the mid 80's. Road and Track had a article back then on what F1 drivers drive off the track and the 560SEC was by far the most popular choice.
