Nice to see such a colorful selection of Porsches!

Virginia City right? We were in Lk. Tahoe for Treffen a few years ago and that was one of our drives, cool place to visit but you have to watch out for some scrape points on the hills!

I recall that, and wasn't there a road that was like a mini Pike's Peak run?

yes they do a few hillclimb races on SR-341 just south of town every year... record holder is a guy who runs his GT2RS... its pretty gnarly with no rails on a lot of these turns and a 500 foot drop off the side!

Yes, that's the one, we drove but at more or less normal speeds during that trip, a hoot for sure, can't imagine it at that pace... those rocks are real!

OH MY G-D! That guy hit 150+ at one point. Uphill. On a dirty, twisty road! Wow!

Love the white faced gauges though

Just saw this car parked at the gym. My car was clean. His wasn’t. But direct comparison….if we haven’t beat the subject to death.

Sorry, but they don’t look like the same color. I know they are supposed to have the same paint code, but my eyes see a difference. Just dirt? You were there - what did your eyes see?

Since this wasn’t available when mine rolled off, I going to pretend it’s my BGTS and save it to my photos, lol. Congrats, you must be super excited at this point.
