Laura,

Welcome to this motley group! Of course you already knew what you were getting in to working for one of the motley-est of the group!

With all the extra 928's Rog has I am surprised he did not offer you a company car as part of your compensation!!!

Hell, my '81 has been out of the tank for almost a year now, on loan to a former 928er here in Austin who needed some wheels after selling his RX8! He will probably be bringing the '81 back soon and I'll hand him the keys for the '84 at that point! Someday he'll get his own car again and a 928 eventually too, but heck it does not bother me a bit to have a car exercised on a regular basis...

Good luck getting YOUR VERY OWN 928 Laura!

Best,

Welcome to Rennlist and it will not be long before we find a car for you.
Roger
As long as you don't mind a 5-speed, or you'll have to fight Roger for an Auto 928.

Not sure they made any that pretty, but I think Blue82 is close! Of course you will have to pry the keys for Blue82 out of my cold dead hands!

Welcome Laura - now I know why Roger does such a great job - it's always the back office team!

Cool Thanks Yall!

Thank you guys for all the compliments. I think my Motley DFW Crew are awesome. I luv'em -- they are all so speshul in their own way. lol

I don't take credit for doing much at Roger's. HE is the MAN! I just try to keep him on track - and that is a JOB. lol. I have the best job in the world with a great boss...I see the vultures circle...but I ain't going anywhere yet so Throttle Down.

Yall Crack me up. I'm not about to ask to drive one of Roger's babys - I wait til he is out of town to drive the heck out of 'em!.. BTW - When are you going on vacation again, Roger? Kermit2 wants me to take it for a ride...lol

I'm not holding my breath on the 928 work vehicle, cause before I put in a P.O. for the 928 work vehicle, I put in a P.O. for a/c in the store room...P.S. I'm still having to wear a tank top to work every day to bear the heat.

Me thinks that the workspace is kept deliberately warm.
Yeah. Rog is saving the planet by keeping the A/C off. That's the ticket.



Remember to jack up the back of the car and run it in reverse after your joyrides.

I am thinking the same thing! If the choice is A/C or you in a tank top... Why spend the money on A/C! LOL!

Welcome Laura, good to have you over here on the dark side.

And for the rest of you, now you understand about the annual mid-summer pool party!

Louie Ott is selling his beautiful early 87 5 speed, I just looked at it today, hands down this would be the car I would buy if I had the money.
