Porsche 911 Sally Special
Porsche and Pixar Animation Studios have created a real-life interpretation of Sally Carrera, the animated 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera from the Pixar movie "Cars," and they plan to auction it off for charity.
The project was first announced in March and just the one example, known as the Porsche 911 Sally Special, has been built. It will be sold on Aug. 20 during an RM Sotheby’s auction coinciding with 2022 Monterey Car Week, together with a matching watch. All proceeds will benefit Girls Inc. and USA for UNHCR, the latter providing aid for children and their families affected by the conflict in the Ukraine.
A collaboration between Pixar, Porsche's own design studio, and the automaker's Exclusive Manufaktur personalization program, the project started out as a way to commemorate this year's 20th anniversary of the 2002 911 Carrera. Sally, who serves as the main booster for the quaint town of Radiator Springs in Cars, is probably the most famous 2002 911 around, after all.

finally got around to do some greaser au stuff! i have no idea how to dress characters, other than knowing that the gang all wear matching jackets... its a little silly, i think sally is the one i mostly have no idea on...
it'd be a funny idea if Frank still had a vest on, just because they may not be above physical altercations does not mean they can't dress to impress! bwhahaa!
(they do have a matching jacket, of course of course...)
barnaby... my beloved...
i have no idea if he has a motorcycle! it's a funny thought that he may have a big truck instead... in case anyone got tired! they can sleep in the back seat while they listen to music... and put their motorcycle in the back!

The tip of your nose and fingers were starting to sting from how long you had been walking in the cold. Walking to the apartments wasn’t the most convenient in the middle of winter, considering the sidewalk was almost caked in ice and snow.
The warmth of the entryway instantly warmed up the coldest parts of your body. Rubbing your hands together, you made your way to the elevator. It had become a habit of your to wave when you walked part Mr. Addison's door, even if his mail slot wasnt open. You stood in the elevator for a few seconds before realising you had forgotten to push any buttons. Hoping no one had seen, you push the button to the fourth floor.
Sal's dad went out for the day so you had decided to go over and make gingerbread houses with him to keep him company. You enjoyed your little private hangouts with Sal, it was nice. You cleared your throat before knocking on the door. Sal opened it, you had to refrain from laughing once you saw him, he was wearing a very cheap looking christmas sweater with candycanes and gingerbread men all around it.
"What the hell is that?" You ask through muffled laughter. Sal looks down at his sweater and back up at you.
"A christmas sweater? My dad bought it yesterday.. it's pretty ugly isnt it?" Sal giggles with you. You walk in and take off your coat and scarf, hanging them up on the coat rack next to the front door. You kicked off your snowy boots and left them on the carpet of the entry.
You looked over at the kitchen, Sal had already placed everything on the counter before you arrived. You smile as you eagerly walk over, admiring the assortment of candies he had set out.
"Shall we?" Sal said in a competetive voice. You raise an eyebrow.
"Are you challenging me Fisher?" You say as you grabbed two pieces of the gingerbread house. Sal shrugged.
"Unless you’re afraid ill beat you." You laugh.
"Bring it on!" The both of you quickly reached for the frosting bags, quickly trying to frost your pieces together. It was clear Sal had gotten some of the pre made gingerbread pieces, the ones with the small details you could trace over with frosting.
You looked up and, as if by magic, Sal's house was already intact.
"What the hell? How did you do that so fast?" You ask as you frosted your roof onto the base of your house. Sal let out small, muffled laughter.
"I'm working, not talking." He says slyly, you playfully roll your eyes in response. You watched as Sal made a few snowmen out of the spare frosting he had. Clever.
You took a few candy canes and stuck them together to make a few candy cane trees near the front of your house. You reached over to the gummy candies without looking, hitting Sal's handin the process. You both stop what you're doing and look at each other. You quickly looked at both your hands in the candy bowl before slapping his hand away. Not hard, but enough to startle him.
About 20 minutes had passed. You took a step back to admire your work. You tried to make the gingerbread house look similar to your own house, though it wasnt identical due to missing pieces. Oh well.
"You're done already?" Sal asked, sticking a few small candies to his house. You crossed your arms.
"Yes. And how much longer are you going to be?"
"Not long.." He draws out his words as he places the last few candies from his hand.
"And done!" He exclaimed. You shrug.
"Not as good as mine!" You say with full confidence.
"Yeah right! Mine is way better!" Just as youre about to conter what he had to say, his dad walked into the apartment. He smiled when he saw the two of you.
"Y/n, always nice to see you." You waved.
"Hello Mr. Fisher." He had told you before to just call him Henry, but to you it felt better to call him Mr. Fisher.
"Dad! Hurry! Emergancy!" Sal said as he grabbed his dad's arm, dragging him to the kitchen.
"Which one is better?" His dad was hesitant for a little.
"They're.. both good i suppose.." Both you and Sal groaned.
"But which one do you like more!" You cut in. His dad chuckled.
"The winner is whoever cleans the kitchen first." He said as he walked over to the couch. You and Sal look at each other before quickly darting around the kitchen to clean, only the sound of dishes clattering and Henry's laughter were heard.

The Roman Empire wasn’t built in a day and therefore my Roman Empire shan’t be built on one scene.
Percy praying to his mom instead of the gods? That’s in there.
The stairwell switch in the St. Louis arch? That too.
The first Percabeth hug? The very streets on which Romans walk.
Waterland and the gold throne? That’s whole temple column, that is.
Grover gaslighting the god of war with ease? Immaculate, yes, welcome to the city.
Sally and Poseidon in the diner? You cannot have an empire without it.
Percy meeting his dad for the first time? Long live Rome, my friend.
I can’t pick just one scene, this whole show is my Roman Empire.
