Very nice indeed!

Paint looks almost brand new. Is it?

What rims are those?

Oh, how I envy your climate. You are heading for summer, we just had the first grim touch of a long, cold and tedious winter. Imagine six Porsche-less dark months. Scrapping by in the Jeep. I suppose rust is not a big issue neither Down Under?

Every year at this time, I almost start filling out the immigration forms for Australia and USA (southern part if you please!).

Hey Markus thanks for the compliment, the paint is about a year and a half old, and the rims are borbets, 16x7 & 16x9,
and yes the weather is warming up here sumemer is coming,
Im in Melbourne and rust isnt a issue unless u live near the beach I guess, no snow in winter so no salt on the roads
Cheers

Very nice. I love my Targa. Some say it's an acquired taste but for me it has always been love a first sight. I also love the extra headroom the Targa top gives. Just got my traveling orders for Australia. I'll be working down there for about 10 days in April '07. I'm planning on a side trip to the Great Barrier Reef.

Very nice

I like the tail you have and I am thinking about getting a similar one or a Ducktail for my Targa.

I am waiting for the temps to get above 35 this morning before I drag the hose out and clean the crud of mine.

I'll be conducting a training seminar for physicians and nurses who are preparing for a certification exam. We'll be in Sidney. I'm taking my oldest daughter with me so we are planning on taking a few side trips. She's got the whole trip all planned out. It should be fun.
