Anyone in Virginia???

Are there any 911 owners here on the board living in the state of Virginia? The reason I ask is because I spotted an extremely nice late 70's/early 80's white 911 Turbo over the weekend and was just curious. I believe the license plate was "Bud 4U" or something similar. Anyway, I was in my 2000 Mustang GT and was trying to get the guy in the 930 to get on the throttle so I could hear the wail of his car, and to also see how my stang would compare.

Anyway, I finally go the guy to get on it a little bit. We went from about 5mph up to about 60mph before I let off because of slow moving traffic. The guy stayed pasted to my rear fender, but did not move forward. I am certain that he would have blown past me if we would have been able to go faster than 60mph, but I would like to see what would have happened. I really love 911 Turbos, but until I can afford to have one, I guess I will have to be happy with my Mustang GT and 73 911T...not to difficult. If the owner is out there...Nice Ride!

Where did you spot the white 930? Down in your neck of the woods or up here in the greater DC area?

I live in Virginia but in the Richmond area and I have a white 76 that fits the description except for the plates and I haven't been up in that area in some time.

That was Mark Marshallton, who happens to be a distributor salesman for Budweiser. He does have a fast Turbo, and was the car that inspired me to have the same color and everything on my 71e Turbo looker, just no where near as fast.
I believe everything on his engine is stock, but the suspension is a different story. I've seen the car down here in my area about a month ago. I live below Richmond by about 45 min.

Cool...the guy turned into my friend's subdivision. I guess he lives there. He has a very nice car. It did look like it was lowered quite a bit. Had what looked like BBS rims too.

Hey y'all (Virginian for hello)
I'm up in N.Va. near Chuck. Haven't seen the white turbo you described, but there are a few up here with the local PCA. I drive a silver 79 turbo with vanity plates and just last week was leisurely driving down Toll Rd with my buddy in a black 86 Turbo. That was the first time either of us was reasonably challenged ('mericun car, rice burner, other german marque).

And for looks appreciation from the 911 sucks thread : Mcd's parking lot, slammed pickup driver says"that is low!" I say "yeah and it is fast too!" Just happened to be one of those days when you get compliments everywhere you go. All I can say is, it makes me smile

What are your vanity plates? Mine are VA plates with "83 SC". Red with a tail. I'll keep an eye out for you on the Toll Road. We live just off Reston Parkway, about 2 miles south of the Toll Road.
