So..I'm at our new (old) place in Olympia, WA....low on gas.....and not too familiar with the surroundings...head over to the closest gas station to fill up. Signal left to turn into the gas station..and see a strangely familiar sight up ahead. Seems there is another S4 pulling in to the same gas station. Isn't it funny how the sight of another 928..no matter how many times you turn back to look at yours, is just pretty cool. Anyway...start to pull in...and promptly run out of gas....haha......just enough slope to get me to the pumps Whew....!..
I guess when the distance to empty shows 12km ..I had better stop.... ;-)
Anyway..back to the story... I am the listmeister of the PACNW 928 list out here and we have about 170 or so 928s on list. I figure I know pretty well where most reside...and I did not know of any in the Olympia Area...Well...sure enough..here is one...a nice 89S4 (black/black) with 80k miles or so. Strike up a conversation....seems he just got it a few months back (from Michigan...one owner car)..very nice shape....spent about 20 minutes just chatting about the 928..and how..(like the rest of us)..he has always wanted one....
I did point him to all the web resources...so he should pop up eventually...
Wife was wondering what the heck took so long to get gas....after I told her..she just rolled her eyes..haha...love it...
It is amazing..these cars just seem to come out of the woodwork...being picked up by enthusiasts...we must find them all haha...
