I spy a Porsche in a Garage

Its in Stuart Florida and it looks super clean. I might have to stop by and meet this chap.

Anyone recognize the car?

Is that a functional traffic signal in the left corner of the garage?

Did you get away before the police arrived wondering why you are taking pictures...

In most circles this would be considered weird, but probably not in Porsche circles.

Case-in-point, I've made a mental note of every Porsche I've ever seen parked in a driveway/garage anywhere within a 20-mile radius of my house. Sure enough, I will look for the car every time I drive by any of those houses.

The car looks good, you should meet him. You might ask over on Rennlist.

My wife told me about this car. Its along the back way to my sons school. My wife was sick today so I picked him up and well, I had my P-car and yeah a camera. So why not snap a pic, obviously this guy is a P-car nut and we will have to meet.


I just met Chip tonight at my sons school, once a month they have a community meeting run by the kids. Its really cute. Anyway I walk out of the meeting and there is another Red Targa sitting in the parking lot across from mine. Its on eo fthe other kids dads car and he was walking up to it as I was looking it over.

I get to talking with him, he is really cool, he could probably own a lotnewer one but he likes the old school stuff too. I invited him to go down to the next PCA AX.
