FAVOR to ask you fellas.... 911's......

SOOOOOOOOOO...............

Have a small favor to ask you guys..........

In 2011 my beautiful wife and I got married........

we had a wonderful wedding.......

we have a super duper awesome 911 CARAVAN going to the church.

This caravan was made of several of my good friends, AND also a few of you guys that were kind enough to bring your 911's out and join in on the caravan of 911's to celebrate our wedding. it was an INCREDIBLE gesture on your part and i appreciated it like you wouldn't believe.






sooooooooooooooooooooooooo fast forward to today....... 2018.... Erika and I have 2 sons.....

Santiago my oldest
Luciano my youngest




HERE IS THE FAVOR I'M ASKING......

I always tell my sons of the Caravan of 911's we had at our wedding, before they were born. They cant believe it!

My oldest is getting to the point where he is getting interested in Papi's "RACE CAR".... but he is too little to drive in mine (I'm a little nervous of having him drive in my car too". He really wanted to see all the 911's together, and all the different colors.... looking at pictures ISNT THE SAME!

So I was thinking.... instead of taking him out to see the cars..... I wonder if the cars can come to see them!

They would LOVE LOVE LOVE that.....

Soooooooo

Is anyone interested in making a little kids day and meeting at my house?

Maybe we can have a 911 get together at my house and drive together to breakfast or some Coffee?

We live in Orange County, 15-20 minutes from Newport Beach, CA

Any local 911's care to join in?

I've already talked to the usual suspects,

Chris
Patrick
Scott

They are all in........ 100%

How about"

Mike?
Kevin?
Joe Bob?

Anyone?

Thoughts?

The spirit says "I'm in", but the mysterious battery drain says "need to get this fixed before running around more." Happy to join if possible. Just don't know if the mighty 993 cabriolet can answer the bell.

Is everyone going away for the weekend of July 7th or 8th?

I would not suggest a fun run. Kids will not handle the twistys

When my step son was younger, I had a bright idea to take him to a NYD fun run

He threw up on my brand new Porsche jacket

Good Morning Fellas!

I kinda figured alot of you would be gone the 7 & 8th but I thought I would ask.....

Maybe the 14th or 15th ? please check your calendars.....

Jim... the idea was NOT to take the kiddos on a drive, mine are to small to be in the PCAR..... my idea was just to have a BUNCH of you guys come over the house with the cars so they can see a parade of differnt color PCARS and hear the rumble!....... from there just go for breakfast or coffee locally.....

dont really want to make a big deal out of it... just a reason to drive our cars for a bit and make the day of a future PCAR enthusiast is all.

Macans are actually welcome Eric......!

This might be a good place to ask a question........

My neighbor is looking to buy a 1999 996.

It has 98K miles, pristine condition, 3 previous owners. all service records.

Asking 18K.

IS THIS A GOOD PRICE FOR A 1999 996 ?

He is looking forward to meeting all you guys at my house........ (maybe the 14th or 15th)
