4/29/201811:45 estFiled to: Porsche 959By: Bradley Brownell

As I rounded a corner at Luft5 this Sunday to see a gorgeous deep blue 959 sitting there with gunmetal grey wheels and an interior the shade of Marilyn Monroe's lipstick, I felt like the bottom had fallen out of my brain. I had known it would be there, and I even knew what color the Porsche would be beforehand, but the visual I'd crafted in my head …

In this case, 'LuftAuto 002' is that outcome and it fits the bill to a T. The LuftAuto thing all started with Luftgekuhlt 3 when they built a white Safari-style Carrera to be …
