1. What leather cleaners work best.
2. What waxes work best.
3. Creative financing.
4. The joy of driving something that looks great, but yet the majority of the population does not even know what it is.
5. The adventure of flying 3000 miles across the country to buy and drive back home a car.

I've learned that nothing on a Porsche is unbreakable.

Lots of auto elec and mechanical lessons but most importantly

There is nothing so valuable to a 928 owner as a friend with another 928 or other 928 owners needing friends.
aka here and other similar 928 gatherings.

Could not agree more.

Look after Kingsley (Ex Green 91 GT) he's heading your way.

Aw c'mon H! Nicole may be 'married' to her 928, but our '928 babe' is currently single!

Things change, but the 928 remains the same.

It taught me that if you want to fix one thing on the 928....two or more things must be removed first..in order to get to it..and of course..while you are in there....takes on a new meaning..hahaha

That the 928 is a car that comes with a horde of
great and interesting people (fortunately).


G'luck all.

I've learned that anything is fixable if you don't give up.

I have learned that if you own a 928 you had better have some other means of transportaion.
