Many years ago I knew a wealthy pharmaceutical rep, his main car
was a turbo charged Porsche 911.
Except this car was all repainted flat black and had every possible
speed measuring countermeasure.
Until I met him I thought the car was a POS....NOT! That thing could
move and STOP! I wonder what goodies he has added to that car since
then?
