2001 996T pics of corcourse winner

I've never really taken serious pics of my car until yesterday. I bot this car from a dealer in May 2005 and immediately ran into serious problems, which were mostly solved by a brand new factory engine—covered under warranty 100%. It’s my first Porsche and the introduction was a hair-raising experience that finally worked out well. I just created my signature below and after making the list, I had to confess that I’m an addict. And all this time, I kept telling myself I wasn’t.

I joined 6speed about 2 ½ years ago and realized I had to have one of these cars. I drive it to work. I track it at Laguna Seca. I drive it hard through the lesser-known twisty roads near the coast here in Monterey County, where I live. It’s a wonderful place to drive a Porsche—especially a turbo. So far I’ve had it up to 165mph and it’s just rock solid, baby. This car has won first place each of the last two years in the Porsche Concourse in Paradise competition in Carmel Valley. Makes me feel pretty damn good to win against cars that arrive in covered trailers.

So here’s some pics I took at the golf course at Quail Lodge in Carmel Valley.









And here's 2 more. 1 taken last year at Concourso Italiano, the other taken yesterday after driving from Carmel Valley over the mountains to the Salinas Valley. That's a field of celery in the background. Edit: JPEG of Concourso Italiano is too big for the pic poster.

Phillip,

Thanks. That P21 gel wheel cleaner I got from you is great stuff. The judges wiped around the inside of my wheels and came up with nothing to deduct points. If anyone wants to save $ in the long run I recommend you get it by the gallon from Detailers Domain.

P21S is probably the best stuff out for wheels, super safe and very easy to use. I'm glad you liked it.
