I have 2 artists who have painted the cars with Copic markers. Jeff has painted all 3 cars and Jazmin has painted the 991S.
A good day: 964 inside a 991S Bulletproof
Today was awesome. I drove my little man to School and he left me the 964 in the car. It was a rainy day, the car looked amazing in the rain and last but not least my good friend Jamie hooked me up with a BulletProof Coffee experience. First time ever.
PorscheRB 1st Drive: Trains in Sacramento
Andrew loves trains. For the longest time, I had heard about the Sacramento Rail and train museum and I decided to get us up there and explore the trains. The drive was easy and smooth, Andrew and I enjoyed as always looking for cars, trucks, trains or planes on the road.
We drove from San Jose to Freemont, Danville, Walnut Creek, Concord Fairfield all the way to Sacramento.
The return was via Stockton, Manteca, Tracey, Livermore, Hayward, Freemont 680 all the way to 280 and then home.
2017 in review.
So much to say. So many trips, so many car events, car activity and so many books and scale models. So much that I am limited the purchase of books and scale models in 2018!
So far best things in 2017 are the people I met via IG, the events I visited, the places I drove to and the drives. But overall People.
Carrera T
For some reason I really like this car, its not over the top and yet it delivers what one wants from a sports car. Interestingly enough, my 991S is 3045lbs where this beauty is 3175, mainly due to Turbo weight and other newer things on the 991.2. I would like to make my 991S a sub3k lbs car eventually...just for fun. I am guessing Exhaust and wheels (carbon?) replacement will get me there.
000 Magazine Issue #004
Its here. Like Pizza.
This is a great magazine. Actually its mor eof a book with a yealry series of 5. Highly recommended for the Porsche Aficionado.
IG Friendships
My friend from Nice does it again! Mr. Pardini and his son gave Andrew and I some amazing gifts! And the traditional postcard! #FOI < Friends Of Internet
Last Carwash 2017
Last carwash of 2017. Macan and Carrera got a quick wash. I decided to open all doors and hoods to be #aircooled.
Original Mancave
My first Garage: Original Mancave
Friends
Andro and Jamie were in town and we got to hang out and drive cars, drink coffee and create new business ties. The first social network has been the oldest practice for people: friendship.
LAAS 2017
LAAS started off with a fine. But that is just fine. Lots of cars, friends and more cars.
PECLA
Visited PECLA and got to see the GT2RS in person. What a beast.
Art
While visiting LA we had a chance to see Art and dine at a nice place called Nobu.
Happy Holidays 2017
Lights are up! Andrew, Baba, Parinaz and I headed out on our yearly tree search. Previously, Scarlett "helped" this time it's all Macan! Happy Holidays 2017!
Blue & Red
Koichiro my new buddy. Met him for the first time at Starbucks. He brought the Blue #doghaus and I brought the Red #scarlett. 75 and 76
Carrera GT Prototype
Lately I have started to notice Prototype's from the Top 64 to these beauty CGT.
Urban Outlaw: Dirt Don't Slow You Down
Great read. Highly recommended.
Macan: Spare tire
Long story, as short as I can tell any of my stories...
Wife gets her Macan back after 2 weeks at the shop (rear ended/minor), she calls me and lets me know she got a flat. I let her know she could call Porsche and she did. Porsche sent a tow-truck to help her swap in the spare. The tow truck is not a Porsche tow truck, just a service hired by Porsche. And given it was rainy day... they were swamped. After 2 hours, she calls me (understandably) upset, the tow service would take another 45 mins... I decide to make a run for it... Back in Mexico I was able to swap tires in under 5 minutes... I drove 20 mins to get to her, hit the same curb as she did (it was submerged...) luckily my tire did not pop. Which is suprising given that mine are low profile vs high profile... m anyway I find the spare and swap it, well under 10 mins including finding the tools in our new car. Then it took me 15 mins to figure out this tire was deflated and it would pop up to be a full tire. Cancelled the tow and had my wife headed home a bit happier. Funny thing is, the wheel is red with yellow sticker and the car is blue, Koichiro coined it McDonald Wheel... and we guess the color is to avoid using the tire beyond the intended us of getting you to the shop... Here it is
Singer+RWB
I have learned to understand the revision of 911. Singer does this amazingly. However, recently the latest re-imagination seems to be a mix of a Singer & a RWB from Akira. I like both, Singer more than RWB, but I respect what these guys are doing and could only dream of having either. But if I could, I would choose the 1st Gen. 964 Singer, and if possible I would like it to have the Williams-Singer engine (which I am certain the reason of the RWB-ness comes from the 500hp). If not, then a smooth transition of the flared fenders would be my request. Wishful thinking does not cost.
The Yellow Wall: Silver on Yellow Part Three
Third visit to the Yellow Wall. This time Isabella is the model and she turned out really well.
