Went to the PCA/Stevens Creek show this morning in Los Gatos and said hi to quite a few Carpokeans. Very well attended show with lots of exhibits and a new record for the amount of food available at a Porsche show -- coffees, pastries, breakfast burritos, chips, specialty drinks, morning cocktails, cookies... endless... I assume Porsche Stevens Creek funded all that. Bee Line European Auto Care was there with some examples of their paint and body work -- they are an up and comer in Santa Cruz that does both body work and mechanical, with several alumni from near-by Canepa (more on them in another post....)

I neglected to get pictures of some great cars, but thought I'd share these.

Went to an interesting cars and coffee this morning at a local high-fashion detail shop. :) The 992 interior really caught my eye with Cognac and Paldao wood trim. :)

From last weekend’s SUPERCAR SUNDAY Porsche Day in Los Angeles.
I’ll “see” your 992 Cognac interior and “raise” you a Cognac leather interior with Papita inserts on this rare(ish) 992 Sport Classic. :shock:

One of the cleanest Supras I’ve seen. The lines are iconic in my mind.
