Fantastic trio of events no doubt, but the new donkey has to be quite special. Extra special, actually. (The new 718 and the incoming Spyder RS are right there too so no reason to pick a winner - they're all great!)

He laughed and was fine with the picture. I laughed the whole time so it was a jovial affair that I think put him at ease. Might have to name the boxster donkey.

Or name the donkey Boxster

Perfect!

Does you un refer to the Boston Bruins? If so, do they close it out tonight and how does that square with connections to the Leafs? I'm speculating a lot here, so bear (pun intended) with me!

Yes my user name does mean I am a Boston Bruins fans. I also live in Maple Leaf’s territory in Southern Ontario, Canada where the media coverage of the Leafs is unbearable.
I predict, and have predicted since before the series started, a Leafs victory. Bruins have overachieved all season and it isn’t sustainable in playoff style hockey. That is all for sports back to a Porsche coverage.

I figured all of the above - I knew you were in the Toronto area. Last night was disappointing for Bruins fans, that's for sure. I'm in Nashville and am a Preds fan - been a FST since their first year in 1998. I'll be at game six tonight vs the Canucks. I don't hold out much hope for us but one never knows which is why they play the game!

Mojonito won't mind the slight thread hijack. Besides, you came up with a great name suggestion for his new donkey!

When is the RS due in? And what PTS did you finally settle on?

I am waiting for PTS to return to 911s - hopefully I'll be able to catch one. The PTS greens are high on my list as we've talked about.

My wife thinks name the Donkey Boxster, and the Boxster named Donkey

Ocean metallic blue. I wanted the ultimate roadster to be elegant. Car should be here in July.

We named the car burra, a female donkey in Spanish.

Ultimate Roadster - for sure! It and the color are going to be so fine - love the wheels, the yellow touches. Yes!

It won't be long.

I did a story on a 'light green metallic' 911 a while ago and thought it was worth putting on a short list of lighter greens, in case you are looking for inspiration.
