I don't think this car has aged very well... flame suit on. 25th Anniversary is a bit of a different story but this one looks like a stripped down version of that.

I feel the exact opposite. The 25th looks dated and awkward, while the original shows the clear connection to the Miura in the side profile and isn't as bloated and contrived looking.

But I'm the guy that prefers my 911s with aluminum headlight and window trim.

Yeah, I had a poster of a white one that I can't seem to find on google images. I looked for a while earlier today and couldn't find the poster I had. Kind of strange considering how popular is seems to have been.
