We went by this event, in Vienna Virginia on Sunday. A nice venue, and some beautiful cars. I saw some familiar faces (and cars) from Katie's.

What's the story on the Porsche emblem with the black tape? A Tony Lapine memorial?

 

I assumed it was for the death of Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, designer of the 911, who died in early April of this year. I think it's a great tribute - surprised I didn't see more of the same, on other Porsches.

^^^ that's exactly right. That's the crest on my gt2... I was the only crest to have that from what I saw from the rest of the Porsche show field. I was surprised not to see any others with that...

 

Very cool, Sunir... I didn't realize it was your car - I was focused on the badge.

Thanks Bob... Just paying homage to FA (Butzi) Porsche ... The father of the 911 and his vision which would go on to become the most iconic car in motoring history.

 

The white cayman with the transparent engine cover had it as well; just not on the front crest (he had a sub box in the rear with a porsche crest + tape)

 

cool glad at least one other Porsche had the tribute stripe...there was a circulation on PCA about it, surprised not many more cars (especially 911 varients) have it...
