That 997 is very nice, I saw a white 997 Turbo in a car park in Canary Wharf the other day, it looked stunning.

I'd have a white Enzo:





This is the only one ever made, photographed on a track in France.

That looks rather a smart little CRX, even if fitting angel eyes & then tinting 'em is a bit daft.

Mugen wheels & a body kit that looks like it wasn't designed by a five-year old - those were the days!

Looks great! Brings back memories of the corolla AE86 one of my friends had 10 years or so back. Used to love the look of that.. hasnt aged as well though.

not tinted .. just have black surround and clear lens. Similar to our rear lights.

Was written of at Nur the next day.

The Lambo - most definitely agree


But a pimped up white convertible 997?

Again, a bit like a white SL55, it just says: "Fat American boulevard cruiser on board"

Ordinarily I'd agree but TechArt (and I couldn't find a coupe photo !) do a wonderful 997 coupe in white with black bits..... looks

I think the new Audi R8 can be added to the list of cool white cars:
