Famous 928 Owners
Hi Guys - I don't post over here, but I saw Dean Kaman (of DEKA / Segway fame) driving a 928 this morning on the way to work. I thought it was interesting. I wasn't able to tell what model it was, however it was definatly at the stock, US ride height!

I worked with Dean 20 or so years ago on a design project for a medical device. Amazingly smart guy. He won't remember me from Adam - but now we have something else in common I should give him a call!

I didn't even think he did his own driving - I had heard that he commuted via helicopter from Long Island.

He lives in Bedford, NH. Sometimes he helicopters instead of the 15 minute drive.

I am a big Dean Kaman fan, I love the fact that he is trying to push science to the forefront and get kids interested in invention. Brilliant guy. The fact that he drives a 928 only reinforces that!
