withers Posted 4June, 2013 Report Share Posted 4June, 2013 Went for a run up Mount Sugarloaf, out to Kurri, down to Cooranbong, through to Dora Creek, then home. Great couple of hours and the car, is just awesome. I agree! Your car is awesome! Love the yellow Ben C3.o 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Mouth Posted 5June, 2013 Report Share Posted 5June, 2013 Wow only $23.000 for this beast! I wish I lived in the UK I paid almost 20k for a 98' Model. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2006-Porsche-Boxster-2-7-Tiptronic-S-Showroom-Condition-Throughout-/190836452701?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item2c6ebd2d5d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvs11 Posted 8June, 2013 Report Share Posted 8June, 2013 Drove from Ashwood to Springvale and back yesterday and today. Odd thing is that I used a tank of fuel and put 300km on the clock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Posted 10June, 2013 Report Share Posted 10June, 2013 Caught up with Mark and Carmine today for a drive and lunch. We all swapped cars today for part of the drive, me in Marks 968, Mark in Carmines C63 and Carmine in my 996TT. Really enjoyed Marks car, very flat cornering capabilities and surprisingly lots of torque down low. I think these nice fat Proxies make a difference, 245's and 295' x 18 to be exact, the fronts are wider than mine and really stick like glue. All in all top day, good company, great weather, top drive ( another Mark special) and good old fashioned hamburgers and coffee at Panton Hill. 9fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazzieman Posted 20June, 2013 Report Share Posted 20June, 2013 Shortest (and probably coldest) day of the year ; sensational clear blue skies, what else to do but drive to work listening to Joe on my dvd http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDrD6HTqsoI Later I will drive back up the hill , stereo off and windows down Red3.2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben C3.o Posted 20June, 2013 Report Share Posted 20June, 2013 Very jealous, mine has been tucked away for over a week now as we keep getting showers go through. The odd fine day we have had of course i have been tied up with work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazzieman Posted 20June, 2013 Report Share Posted 20June, 2013 It rained the rest of the week and the 944 was used - but only to preserve the "treat" factor. You should not fear the rain , the body is galvanised. They were built for salty German roads! Of course there is always the risk of idiots and that is a reason I avoid 911-ing on a Monday!

9fan Posted 22June, 2013 Report Share Posted 22June, 2013 Blue sky and frost on the paddocks so donned the driving gloves (to keep hands warm) out to Healesville and yes Theo - the Nurburg run. Cold morning air good for accel and crisp bark from exhaust. Nice coffee and eggs bene then back home via another deviation - good for future runs.

Chris-p Posted 22June, 2013 Report Share Posted 22June, 2013 Fired up the Pcar for the first time in two months, gave it a good wash and then drive into St Kilda and back along beach road. Perfect day and car drove perfect. Had a very nice black 944 pull up beside me and gave me a friendly nod. Also saw T2's mate in his white 930 cab. Gave him a wave but was duly ignored Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing like crisp mountain air to get things stirred up. If you want some company on your morning jaunts, Mark you know what to do... An SMT notice the night before will usually be answered by a few early risers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9fan Posted 22June, 2013 Report Share Posted 22June, 2013 I would SMT if I could, but only got permission late evening before and had to come straight back. Like you say would be better with mates ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Man Posted 22June, 2013 Report Share Posted 22June, 2013 Had the nephews birthday today which normally calls for the family car. Alas, the Mrs had a migraine and the eldest son was coming down with a cold. That leaves the 11 year old and myself.......perfect for a 911. Normally takes 15 minutes to get there. Somehow it took 45 today. SteveT and Red3.2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko Posted 22June, 2013 Report Share Posted 22June, 2013 Weather too good yesterday, pulled "old yella" out of he garage, took a drive down PLINK, and back, with JJ Cale along for the ride. The way the weather has been, the Hard top might have to go into storage again. A few old classics and a rod out and about, as well, great day for it.
