Quick Intro

Just wanted to introduce myself. I've owned a couple different Z3 M Coupes over the years but recently stepped up to a blk/blk 02 996 Turbo.

I live up in Snohomish and fortunately/unfortunately, the Porsche is my daily driver so if you see a black turbo w/aero kit cruising up 405 on a miserable rainy day...it's probably me!

Looking forward to meeting some of you at local events and leveraging the collective knowledge of the group in the future!

Hello! Nice intro and nice to meet you! If you have a chance, I know the other members would LOVE for you to post up some pics of your pcar!

The entire 6speed family is a great group. I think you'll enjoy meeting the NW crew. We have tons of events throughout the year including Exotics at Redmond Towncenter. If you do a thread search, you'll see a ton of pictures! I also host and organize the Annual Remlinger Farm Exotics Photoshoot and Luncheon in May. We also have charity events and shows that we participate in along with many other activities!

Welcome! If you are on Facebook, please check out the 6speedonline fan page!

Thanks Jody. Looking forward to meeting you at a PCA Autox (used to take my M Coupes to them all the time) and other events soon.

In the meantime, here's the only picture I have of the car at the moment and I'm hoping it doesn't get me permanently banished from this site by the Porsche purists.

Can't say I'm very proud of the fact that my first "mod" to this amazing car was a....trailer hitch (which, for the record is completely hidden when not in use!) but as you can see, it's there for a good reason!

I've got a set of Fikse's on the way and am planning to install some coilovers in the spring, so future pictures should be much better.

YOU ROCK, sir! Welcome aboard! I thought I had seen it all when I spotted that BMW M5 pulling a trailer with track tires and that other 996TT with tires on top but this takes the cake!

Thanks Guys! I figured I'd catch a little flack for the hitch and know it's definitely not a common or popular direction to take a Porsche...but I figured someone on the list would eventually see me with it and "out" me anyway! Fortunately I have much better plans for the car and it will be receiving some "proper" mods soon.

Anyway, definitely looking forward to meeting many of you and seeing some of your cars in person. Hopefully I'll be able to drag a couple of my friends along with me. One of them owns a gray R8, the other has a silver Andial 993 Turbo...and neither of them have plans to tow anything with them any time soon.....

How many CC's is that kart?

Fikse's make some wonderful wheels that look good on Porsches
