Here's a way delayed one, but been a bit out of touch.

Two weeks ago, Wednesday, noon, black Alpina "Z8" in the New Leaf parking lot in Half Moon Bay.

Silver Turbo in San Ramon - RennTech on the windshield

I think it was silver turbo ... with sticker on front windshield. Your car sounded soooooo good. I wish I could afford to make my 996 Targa sound that good. I hear it in my sleep

Next time ... wave back. I was just admiring your ride.

Slow drivers boggle my mind... Why do people drive that slow...? Sometimes I will drive by and wonder how does one live life so slow. Then think that they probably write books or are a pottery sculpting teacher. Haha thats judgmental. But it makes me laugh when I think about it so W/E.

Hey Green,
Not sure what you were talking about, there are many modded Porsches in the Bay Area. I see 6/700hp (crank) all the times. However, if you're looking for 1000+, you have to go to TX, AZ, or the mid-west.

Slow drivers don't bother me at all as long as they stay in their lanes. What bother is some people cut or turn in front of me and then slow down.

Ya it mostly when people are on their phones. They stay in the fast lane and slow down.

But naw man. Compared to orange county and florida. There is nothing up here. Where the hell do you cruise around an see 6 700hp porsches. I'd like to go where ever they are at... 8)
