NEW YORK - There's nothing like a limited-edition sports car to incite a heated custody battle. A judge recently awarded joint custody of a $200,000 911 GT2 Porsche to two men who both wanted to own it. A car salesman at Silver Star Motor Sports wanted to keep the car for himself, but a customer had already put down a $500 deposit to reserve it. Marc DiLorenzo, the customer, took the salesman to court when he refused to give up the car. In turn, the judge made DiLorenzo pay the entire amount due on the car, but the salesman still gets to drive it for the first four months. The salesman has agreed not to drive more than 2,500 miles on the car during his months of custody. DiLorenzo wasn't completely happy with the outcome and said, "I'd rather get it sooner than later, but this way everybody's happy - or unhappy. I'm a little frustrated, but glad it all worked out." The car has been called "the ultimate Porsche," and only 166 of this model will be sold in the United States in 2002.
