Have a blast, Larry!!!

Be safe...

P.S. Make sure that you hit a few leather shops for the new "Macan" co-pilot!

The bad news; one of my old dogs is very sick, he cant stand and walk by himself, taking him to the
vet in 30 minutes, I fear that my trip is off...

Nothing beats ED and picking up a car in south Germany. Hinckley, your pics bring back great memories!! Love the e60. If Porsche offered a ED discount like BMW, would talk myself into a 991 GTS in less than 3 minutes. That said, stranger things can happen.

cvt - Do I remember correctly? Didn't I take that pic of the E60 LCI's stick for you?

I'd love to do a Porsche ED. The problem for me is that I only drive the car 7 months a year and I'm not willing to give up the two months it would take to ship home after drop-off.

Hope all is okay. If we were back there would offer to come up and help out. Totally know how it is - almost called off our current trip when our 14 year old lab had a turn for the worse. Walked my wife off the ledge and have a pet sitter in house currently.

He's at the vet now, and we have a pet sitter arranged, but he cant stand or walk, and he's a big dog, and she's a small sitter ... so not sure we can leave
with him in this state...

Ive spoken with Jamie @ PCNA, she thinks they can reschedule the ED so it looks like we will postpone...

I just heard from my vet; she is recommending we euthanize him, her prognosis is that he wont recover and be able to stand/walk by himself.

right now, I'd give my GS and GT3 to someone if they could cure the old fella...

Do what feels right to you and you won't be wrong.

My heart goes out to you and your family. It's hard to lose someone who loves you unconditionally.
