Actually it was the fact that the car had not been crash-tested that
completely held the 959 up in customs, in addition to the emissions.  
At one point they were working on a computer-simulation to try and get 
the cars passed; there were two, and I can't remember who the other
owner was.  I doubt that such a program could be run on Windows, as
it would probably crash while running the simulation!

don't forget the 944S coupe turbo...a truly wicked car that was light and
had a monster motor...then there's the uber-porsche 959, which bill gates
has but is stuck in customs due to not passing or meeting emissions. btw,
he drives a dark blue sc400 as a daily driver. i hear the new 911 (996) is
put together much better, alas no more distinctive air cooled whirr.. :(
