Herr-Kuhn announcement!

Introducing the future "Frau-Kuhn". My girlfriend Colleen and I got engaged this weekend. No specifics yet on timing, but we will likely get married sometime next year.

Never fear, turbocharged 928 work will continue...Colleen amazes me (still to this day) with her patience with my hobby and side business. I'm truly very fortunate to have her in my life. Who knows, maybe someday there will be "twins" in the picture?

Colleen helped me install the sewer pipe exhaust on the TT before SITM. She has also ridden shotgun for Shark-Tuning.

We're already talking about the plans for the wedding...time to "shake a tail feather". Housing will be easy as Colleen still lives at home so she can just move into my place when the time arrives.

This heard from the future Mrs. Kuhn, "Of course he'll give up his car's. That's why they invented dog houses and the like."


Just kidding. It sounds like you found a good one. They're rare.

Nope...that was the "old" Frau-Kuhn, the new Frau-Kuhn would never do that.

Yes she is younger than I, but not to the level you might think.
