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 [...]

TweetWhile I’ll talk more about my overall race experience at Sebring in this post, the photos I’m sharing today are of the various other cars I saw at Sebring other than the race cars and, what race cars I do share, were there on display and not running. (Well, some were racing, just not during [...]

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. This first part will cover the actual race cars, while the part later on this week will cover the other random cars & old race cars that were there. That splits my SLR photos nicely, and [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Step Two, Complete

February 23rd, 2012 · 1 Comment · About Me, Cars I want..., My Cars, Porsche

TweetStep two of the Porsche plan? Sell the other car, whichever sold second. In this case, it was selling the Miata. Parting wasn’t easy, to be honest. I did have a few tears over it… Leaving her in the parking lot and saying a brief goodbye were hard. It’s not easy to part ways, especially [...]

My Second Chance Photo

February 14th, 2012 · 1 Comment · inspiration, Photos, Porsche

TweetI’m really happy that I get to share this photo. It means more to me than I can express in a way, but I figured I would try. A few weeks ago, we went up to Mt. Spokane to get some skiing and boarding time in. We had just switched to going on Saturday nights [...]

TweetEvery once in a while I get to feel like I get to go and do cool things…. This is definitely one of those cool things. We found out about it just early enough to RSVP and get to attend! Was a lucky day I suppose. Meeting the 991 I was pretty excited — Ever [...]
