Cool Northeast first nice weekend picture thread

Looks like the north east is finally in for some nice weather this weekend. Pull the car out of the garage and go for a ride. Then post a pic here. Targas must remove tops!

We're having a bit of a cold snap here. Good thing though, gives this years third sunburn time to heal.

They're definitely out there. I saw a 996 and a guards red SC targa while I was driving to lunch today. It's rare for me to see any 911's around my area (cept that one with 'Baltic' as a vanity plate, I see that one in my commute all the time, but not yet this year).

With all of the liberals in MD we are closer to MA than VA. Heck they just voted to increase the sales tax by 1% and raise income taxes on the "rich." If that isn't the northeast....

Sure, laugh. We have two big fronts coming in next week. I'll prepare as best I can, but some damage is inevitable. Is there no end to the devastation?

The evening is star filled and gorgeous. I removed the Targa top and cruised home from a hard day at the hospital, the long way of course. Philadelphia to Honey Brook, PA.

Actually, Maryland is south of the Mason-Dixon line. It used to be a southern state, but thats kind of a stretch any more. Maryland (DC/Baltimore areas) has more in common with Philly/New York/Boston than it does with Atlanta/Charlotte/Charleston. Like it or not, so does NoVA. We're all pretty much the "Northeast". The real south starts in the middle of Virginia, around Richmond. This concludes our East Coast geography lesson for the day .

Well it rained this morning and then cleared up a bit in the afternoon. Visited a friend that has a supercharged SC.

Some pics

Took my SC out today....it started on the first try after sitting all winter, new Optima no trickle charge-pretty impressive. It was awesome! It drove like a raped ape! Came back and already involved with my first project a new floorboard...what a pain in the ass! Everyone enjoy!

Nice Here Too.

Well Guys, I am not exactly in the Northeast (rather North Midwest), and we finally got a break in the weather. So I took her out just before we got a ton of rain. I had the top off too, boy was I lucky...

We had 1...yes 1...nice sunny day last week. Closest we got to the 930 was to just call and see how everything was coming.

But hopefully in 3 weeks our driving season will get going.

dheinz...awesome picture!! The other pics are nice too.
