This is one of my favorite cars of all time, its just a classic car that still looks great today. My customer just picked up this car and its perfect, however the paint was a bit different. He brought it to us to get it up to par with the rest of the car. Take a look.

Seems like a great car to work with. Great job as always Phil!!! Love the before/after shots and the outdoor pics!! Really shows the depth and clarity of the paint! What SLR camera are you using if you don't mind.
the t1i its a pretty good camera played with the 7d this weekend and what a camera that is. thanks guys!
Beautiful job Phil. Recently sold my Lusso, but you're making me regret my decision. When I come by maybe I'll pick up another tub
Lol, Porsche love affair - more pics of the final output than the detail Great job, Phil - that black is why people by black - wish it could stay like that forever
That detail brought a tear to my eye, that is the most beautiful Porsche in my opinion. Some day I will get myself a 993 Turbo in that exact color combination, wow. I saw you apply your Lusso Oro pretty heavily and have to say I do the same only because it spreads so thinly otherwise that I cannot even see where I applied it! For anyone interested in Lusso, it is such a pleasure to use and looks like even the most expensive waxes (that I have used anyway) and is enough of a bargain to make it a great impulse buy.
thanks guys! GDAL yup just applied it maybe 30 minutes or so afterwards, didn't pull away from the slickness of the power lock. Believe it or not I saw the owner on the road today heading to an appt and let me tell you I saw the car coming down behind me and I had a huge grin on my face the car looks nuts!
Great great job Phil. I saw the write up on other forum, and it's incredible how you and your team do the job. Once again, congrats.
