Default Michigan Fall Color Tour - w/ pics

We had eight 928s at Sunday's event. It started out cloudy but improved as the day went on. Here's a few pictures of the day.

Andrew -

You should have been there Ms. Spain and her runner up were there! Also Rob V's car pulled a shark attack on a 911! You mite want to put something in the shrine for him.

Where's all the leaves????? Us guys down here in so Cal (the endless summer) want to see some fall color. We already know what Porsches look like!

Heck, the day after Sharktoberfest, we are on a plane to New England to tour the fall colors for a week. Can't wait!

The leaves here is SE Michigan are being very slow to turn this fall. Threre's still more green than yellows and reds.

This year reminds me of '97 - the year I bought my 928. As I remember we only had one significant snowfall that whole winter, and that was in March! I got to drive my newly acquired 928 all winter. Hasn't happened since, but I'm hoping for a repeat this year!

Hey Dave - is that a police escort I see in the background???

Unfortunately I couldn't make it - we were celebrating my wife's birthday a little late this year. On her actual birthday we were still recovering from our daughter's wedding the weekend before...

Leaves are beautiful right now in Michigan's UP!
You city-slickers just need to venture out a little! Maybe next year we can fix that, eh?

Sorry I missed it also. I'm in New Mexico right now am missing the fall colors & temps!

The SEM chapter of PCA does a run up to Harbor Springs/Petoskey every year, but they do it in June. It would be fun to do something similar around this time of year, but recently I don't seem to have time to do even an afternoon run.

That gold car is beautiful...so's the black one without the side mouldings.

Wish someone had some video of that 'shark attack'!
