I just came back from spending a week in Paris for our daughter's spring break. Saw about 5 or 6 911's, 2 Cayenne's and 1 Panamera (and about 7 Aston Martin's and 6 Bentley's, LOL).

One night I left the hotel to hit a close-by grocery store for water bottles - walked past a Cayenne S parked on a side street. Very interesting paint job - it was flat black - as in almost a military black phosphate camouflage color. Completely non reflective.

Then about 2 days later saw a BMW 650 in the same finish. Anyone seen anything like that?

Talk about separation anxiety. It was great to be out, but I missed my car. Took it out for a spin Saturday afternoon when we got back!

Ahh,, a beautiful white 930 with box rocker panels. The contrast of the white with black trim always amazes me. Good Lord,, you have some meat stuffed in the back there. Are those Lindsey wheels? It's hard to stuff that much and 18's to boot without it looking like a 4x4 truck,, you pull it off nicely!

Hmm, wait a minute,, I didn't know they had coastline in Minnesota! It kind of looks like Catalina out there,,

It's not all it's cracked up to. It's pretty amazing you can keep primary in MN. That must be a skillful trick. The State of Cali wants ALLLL of your money,, not just some of it.

BBS` look great.

Any time of day on Sunday, especially in the morning on the way to a car meet.

Cool vid, but what happened in Eagle Rock? Camera suspiciously stops recording.

The 210-134-101 is kinda dull, but with the 2 still closed not much to do in N LA... Still, I would have loved to see you all cut over on Laurel to Mulholland.
