Porsche Crest A few shots of the new 993

Backed by popular demand, I present to you a few hurried shots of my '95 C2.

Erin and I just got back from a 900 mile road trip from Colorado Springs to Great Falls.
Everything went very well with the only casualties being the 40,000+ bugs that tragically lost their lives.

Some of you may think me a traitor for moving to the dark side, and to that I say... ... ... well, no one's perfect!

It was great meeting the gang in CastleRock for dinner, even though it is obvious Fritz was far too impaired to be legally operating a camera.

I hope to meet you all again sometime!

By the way, why is it everytime I meet fellow pelicanheads, I get this very strange, "and you must be Leland..." from people... am I that bad?????

Cheers and enjoy the first of many photos to come of my new and very esspensive baby.

Gorgeous car!! You're gonna fall in love with that 3.6 torque. Where are you planning to source the SC conversion kit?

Leland,
Great looking car! Glad to see my old home town has one Porsche. You must love the smooth streets of GF.

Awesome!

I think you can be given a special dispensation - after all, the 993 is the SC of the 90s!
