      Nah, Pedro has no ego. Haha. Besides, there are more Miata parts under Pedro's bonnet than Festiva parts.

        This was right outside of my local municipal courthouse, so I didn't really want to test how close I could get with all those cops around staring at me...

        • I was in a parking lot full of Mazda's and Fords and Hyundai's and what did I decide to park
          right next to...parked all by itself? (I would have gotten a picture, but it was raining pretty hard)

          Similar, but I can never tell the iterations of the 911 apart.

            That's a 991 turbo in Arctic Silver Metallic.

            • Arctic silver is my favorite Porsche color. Pedro's stablemate is a 987CS in Arctic Silver. It's a great little car, but doesn't hold a candle to Pedro's roadholding prowess.

              • How many Pedro-clones can you build for the sticker price of that Porsche? :-)

                  Exactly...most Porsche's look the same to me. I never was too interested in them haha
                  Beautiful to look at and I've heard they're fast and handle well, but too far out of my
                  price range for me to look at as a realistic purchase.

                    Just the price of the tires will build 2 swapped Festivas, however, the Porsche pays for itself. I bought that car with money I made developing Porsche race cars. For a decade P-cars were my bread and butter, so technically speaking, I have more money wrapped up in Festiva parts, because the only return I get from developing Pedro is the unchallenged driving experience that a Festiva can provide.

                              • No idea. I didn't think to check. Was on a mission to get a door. It is right across from a building that says it's something to do with Octoberfest right on the river.
