2012 Auto Boat Speed Show

April 17th, 2012 · No Comments · Car Event, Photos, Porsche

TweetShortly after getting home from Florida was the Auto Boat Speed Show here in Spokane. It’s not a huge show, and almost all classic and muscle cars, but to me it means that spring is here and progressing and that car things are FINALLY starting to happen again. Lucky for me, there were a few [...]

When Buying Used, Learn All You Can

April 12th, 2012 · No Comments · Guest Post

TweetWhile I’m still a ways off from buying my own Porsche 911, it’s a topic that I think about on a daily basis. The thought of getting my own 911 consumes my thoughts almost all day — everything that I do I do in the hopes of buying her sooner rather than later. In the [...]

Driving the 458 Italia

TweetI really didn’t want it to happen, but it did anyway (not that I REALLY thought I could get away with it not happening) — I fell in love with the Ferrari 458 Italia. Hopelessly in love. It is such an amazing car that you can’t help it. The entire time we spent at the [...]

Sebring, the Race Cars!

April 3rd, 2012 · No Comments · Car Event, Photos, Porsche, Racing, Travel

TweetI’ll be splitting Sebring coverage into two parts based on the small amount of photos I have to share.

On a Different Scale…

March 29th, 2012 · No Comments · About Me, Porsche, Random

TweetThis year I’ve started to build my very first model car. She isn’t the first kit I’ve ever bought, but she is the first being put together…. And, not surprising, she’s a Porsche. A slant nose turbo at that. One of my favorites, a 935. (Street version, not the famous Martini track version.) I’ve been [...]

The VW I Kinda Want…

March 27th, 2012 · No Comments · Cars I want...

TweetReally, I don’t think I’m cut out to be a Volkswagen owner. I don’t mind them, but they just aren’t for me. That’s why I’m basically by-passing the jump to German cars via VW and going straight to what I want, Porsche. However, there is one VW that I really wouldn’t mind calling my own…. [...]

TweetI’m interrupting my normal posts for this important announcement! As of March 14th, I left the chilly Inland Northwest and headed down to Orlando, Florida, to spend just shy of two weeks having fun in the sun. Part of this trip involves attending the 12 Hours of Sebring live! I’m excited beyond words. It’s totally [...]
