Super Carrera, but its a big milestone for this Garage Queen !

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Amazing! 50K on a beautiful 23 year old (new) SC. Your car really is a garage Queen! My Carrera is an '84 and it has 136K on it, which is still way below the national average.

Nice color on her, btw, and are those 9's on the back?

Ah yes, now you may say she is broken in, and drive here faster and harder.

6 more thousand miles and you'll catch up with my garage queen. I think this summer I put another 300 miles on the garage queen. Since I only insure the garage queen during the summer, my driving season is over for this year.

You need to update your signature, no longer 49,000

Scott,
Yes those are 9's in the rear.

The car only gets driven an avg of about 3300 miles a year.
About double what it was driven in the 16.5 years of existence
before I purchased the car.


The 70E had all the fun today. Drove a friend of mine up thru
a twisty canyon as hard as the car could go.
90 mph straights, down to hard 2nd gear corners. What a blast !
My friend was all smiles & quite amazed at what a Porsche can
do. Another convert....
