I’ll cross post on the Facebook page, but curious who all is planning to attend Parade this year with their CC.  I think Alex G. and Joe M., in addition to Michael Pohlmann are planning to attend.  Anyone else?

Hey George – I think there’s contact info elsewhere for the 1:18 model.  I’m pretty sure that’s still available directly from the people at Porsche Exclusive in Germany.

For the books, I think the project will be revived in April, now that all 60 cars either have or are about to have their first owner.

Yep – Voodoo Blue.  If you check out the editor’s column by Pete Stout in this Month’s Panorama, he talks specifically about it.

I’m with you in that it looks very much like Club Blau in the pictures, but I think it’s lighter in person.  Sort of between Mexico Blue and Club Blau.

All,

PCNA commissioned a new batch of 14 indoor covers, which are now available through the normal parts channels (your dealer, Suncoast, etc.). Less the six people who ordered one, there should be several remaining to purchase.

Here’s the Part number and “list” price:

Porsche Tequipment part number 991.558.096.009.00

Michael – thanks for registering and welcome aboard.

Nice plate. There are multiples of yours, mine (PCA GTS) and Joe / Rene’s (CLUBLAU). Any other multiples? Must be…

Mike – I know there are still a few cars for which PCNA / PCA are working to find buyers; cars where the original “buyer” backed out. I think all of the other cars have been delivered.

Thanks Jim – glad you liked the article.  It was fun to write and helped me process the whole experience.  I sure wish it would have been okay to take pictures in Butzi’s office to help share the experience.  And no about the watch.  I have the original Orfina version and it’s my go-to watch.  It’s cool though that they have an identical watc…[Read more]

You bet – we had a new Rennlister join the ranks today – Mach86 / Frank Hayes.

Sorry to spill the beans, but I understand that there were 20 manual cars built, so PDK wins 2:1.

Hopefully as the final cars are delivered we’ll get more people signed up for the register, but yeah, nearly half way there.

Yeah – I corresponded with him (Frankie) and he’s now in the registry.  Speaking for him, I think it’s a case of “let’s test the market and if someone comes up with this much $$$ then I’m a seller.”

@jam2 hates it when I point this out, but I think he’s well ahead of the pack in the race of the most highly optioned CC.

Cool.  Road trip.  Thanks for the info; it’s on my calendar.

Hey Mike – yeah, it’s the actual formula… at least the formula using their prime supplier’s tints.

And Alex – the code is the one that’s on the sticker in the service / maintenance book – it’s W60.

Alex – my pleasure.  It’s really (really, really) nice.  I’m not as skillful a snapper as Mr. Alfenito, but here are a couple of pictures of it on my desk in poor lighting:

We’ll probably skip the next Parade.  Jay Peak is a helluva long way away from San Francisco.  But will likely attend the 2017 Parade, assuming it’s somewhere in the Pacific Northwest.

That is one hell of a lot of C’s. Club Coupes in Cambria at Heast Castle. I love it. It was cool seeing 5 of them together. 10 or more would be quite a thing.

Trust me on this, John, it’s worth the wait!

Nice clean plate.  Let me know if you’re up for organizing a west-coast CC gathering, maybe in SLO, for the spring.

I just updated the summary configurations – now with 22 of 60 cars (including the car to be given away at Rennsport next week).

PDK cars now soundly lead MT cars at 14 to 8.

Its kind of a PITA to update location information, so I’ll do that after there are more cars registered.  Interestingly, according to John Alfenito, 13 (!!) cars are…[Read more]

Here are a couple more pics from Schuttgut, the Porsche family estate in Zell am See.
