THE Perfect Store???

Some of you may actually crap your pants over this one, so may I recommend you stop reading and print this article out right now… Take the printed results to a hygienically appropriate place and continue reading.
Paul, who happens to be the brains behind the PorschePerfect.com "operation", sent me a link to a store he came across on a bike blog named Bike Snob NYC. Check out this picture:
The Porsche 944 is the window display at a high-end fashion store named Marc Jacobs in New York. Now if you're into Porsches AND fashion, this may be the holy grail of all shopping experiences. If you're a knuckle tattoo fan in addition to the other two, your knees are probably buckling right about now (assuming you're not already "sitting down"). Here's a closeup of what's on the hood of the 944:
It's a knuckle tattoo that spells MARC if you can't quite make it out.
It's interesting that a high-end fashion store would use an older Porsche like that in their window display where clothing samples would normally be. I'm no marketing expert, especially when it comes to retail stores, so maybe this is all the rage in New York fashion stores these days. It definitely is an interesting use of display space.
Think the sign behind the Porsche is legitimate? It reads: "For Sale Make Best Offer".

Wow, definitely different but I like it. I'm about 45 minutes outside NYC, in Connecticut, so I might have to go check this out. I'll be in the city next week too…

I live right outside of New York and this one definitely doesn't surprise me. I do need to check this one out ASAP though.
