Porsche 911 Turbo X50 Cab – what a mess

Look what happens when you loan out your 911 Turbo Cab (X50)

I get a call from Marc Faraj at Town Motors Porsche and he tells me he did something bad…..

I asked him what can be so bad?

He said: I loaned out my 911 Turbo Cab to a buddy.
I said: How bad he says you’ll see……

When I received the car it was early morning the sun wasn’t out yet, the next day when I was able to pull it out I couldn’t believe my eyes! The car was shot!
