***** c) Installation for not that expirienced users:

!!! ALWAYS BACKUP FILES BEFORE PLAYING AROUND WITH THEM !!!

Start IMG Tool and open \models\GTA3.img in your Vice City folder.
Use Edit/Find to locate "comet.dff"
Rename it to "comet_old.dff" or something like that
Add the new "comet.dff"
Find "comet.txd"
Rename it to "comet_old.txd" or something like that
Add the new "comet.txd"

Use your text editor to open \data\default.ide in your vice city folder
Find a line beginning with "210, comet ... " and replace it with this one:
210,	comet,		comet,		car, 	COMET,	 	COMET, 			null,	executive, 	10, 	6,	2ff0,		249, 0.73
Save the file

Open \data\handling.cfg with your text editor
Find a line beginning with "COMET ..." and replace it with this one:
COMET           1200.0 1.9 4.7 1.6 0.0 -0.15 -0.3  75  0.85 0.78  0.47  5 230.0 25.0 R P 11.0  0.45 0 30.0  2.0  0.15 0.25 0.60 35000 0.28 -0.14 0.5  0.3		0001		1  1
Save the file

Open \data\carcols.dat with your text editor
Find a line beginning with "comet ..." and replace it with this one:
comet, 1,71, 12,71, 6,71, 0,12, 53,1, 76,12, 12,1
Save the file

Hint: Be sure that you don't add any blank lines to any of those files, GTA: VC reacts quite allergic to that.

Okay, you're ready to go now... Just start the game and enjoy driving the rare 911 Speedster.


***** d) Notes, legal stuff, contact
legal stuff:
This car is copyright by Fragdieb. It was 100% build from scratch for GTA: Vice City. You are allowed to host it on your website as long as you give proper credit to me and send me a mail which informs me that my car is available on your site now. 
Installation and use of this car happens at your own risk, I cannot be held responsible for any damage to your hardware, software, your body, your life or your social contacts that may occur when installing or using this car.

notes:
This is it, finally, a classic open-air Porsche for Vice City. The Body is 90% identical with my 911 Turbo. Although it's a bit too new for Vice City (Porsche 911 Speedsters were only built in '89), I think it is a good comet replacement.
There might be a minor bug when replacing the comet. On my machine, it is impossible to damage the right door of the comet or cars that replace it. I don't know if this is a bug in the original vehicles.col file or if my Vice City is just modded too much. It is definitely not a bug in my *.dff file, the damaged right door works fine when replacing other cars.
I usually post the previews of my cars at http://forums.gouranga.com, so have a look there if you're interested what I'm doing.
