WOW, Denver Porsches galore

[Grady Clay]

WOW, Porsches galore, I should get out more.

I took K’s Land Cruiser over to Burt Toyota this morning at about 7:15, returning home about 9:30. In 15 minutes each way I saw more than 33 Porsches. I lost count. Rout was Colorado Blvd, Hampden, University, Belleview, Broadway.

A new yellow Carrera GT following an identical color early ‘90s Corvette.
6+ Boxters.
19+ 911s including:
A ’66-’67 Irish green coupe with 4 1/2 chrome wheels.
Three+ ’69-73 911s, one Aubergine!
An RSR appearing 911, possible centerlocks?
Lots of 2.7s, SC, Carrera, 964, 993, and 996. I lost count.
A 356A Cabriolet.
A ’59 D-Roadster, Champagne yellow.
Two 356B coupes.
A 356C coupe
A 356C cab
AND
A 914-6, blue with subtle flares turning 5000 in traffic!

With this extreme number, I’m sure I missed all the Cayennes and more.


There was a time when I knew 95% of the Colorado registered Porsches – no longer.

If you were one of these cars, feel free to e-mail me.

Best,
Grady

Wasn't me! I spent a lot of time in Denver and rarely saw a 911. Maybe they're heading to the Porsche parade in TX. Isn't that coming up?

Grady, the porsche gods were smiling upon you. I don't see that kind of thing! I haven't seen a CGT in Denver, and I see 356s pretty rarely (Except at George Maybee's!)

wow! a yellow GT? must have looked kinda Ferrari-ish in yellow.

Naw Jim, they were heading to the 2004 SCWDP Rainforest round up !
When I bought my SC in Colorado, all I saw was a couple boxsters and a 993 cab.

that's like porn w/o the pictures....

Regardless, that must have been quite a sight. Glad you could enjoy it for the rest of us
(thanks for a good effort to describe the cars, though. They must have really etched themselves on your retinae to be able to recall that much. That would have made my day too!)

Grady can identify old porsches by their Aura.

I don't see that many in SoCal except for Boxsters and the ususal one or 2 996's. When I see an early or mid year car, I sit up and notice. Hardly ever see 964s and never 993s.

Of course, I operate out of Long Beach. This ain't no Newport.

Jerry, I saw your car at George Maybee's Gmund event. It looked great! I didn't get a chance to track you down as I think you arrived early and left a bit early and I arrived late and left a bit late.

[Par911]

Very nice ride Jerry!

another colorado porsche (been here for 20 years, but from Edmonton originally)

(PO's house, several changes since then)

Grady, do you remember seeing this one? I was driving East on Belleview from Broadway to I-25 between 7 and 8 am. I remember seeing several other Porsches but not as many as you did!
