There is also:
- Eric (Sharkdad) and his black GT
- Kevin Michael's is black
- Matt's (flyingdog) is a blue OB.
- I also know there is a gold S2 local
- A nile green S2 owned by an austrailan guy (forgot his name)
- Another lighter green S4 owner from manassas is on RL
- There at least 3 others S4's that come to mind of various colors including pink and white.
- There's a black S4 still parked in Reston as of tonight
- Geoff (and Heather) I think his is black or dark blue.
- Panzer had sold his, not sure where it went.
- Bill's S3 is red but I don't think it's running.
- There's that black GTS in McLean that's for sale.
- JP's is black a GT?
- Fraggle's is a red S4

That's all I can think of off the top of my head.


Michael

It's time for me to jump in here, and deny deny deny - It was NOT me.

It appeared the driver was testing 2 gauges - tach & speedometer.

I vote for Mike.

This thread is déjà vu for me. It was several years ago (like 7 or 8 yrs.) that I saw a black S4 turn from 50 westbound onto Collington Rd northbound. It looked much like your car, Don (cups if I recall).
I was in my DD, so I wasn't able to get the guy's attention, but he was an older guy - appeared to be in his 60's (a total guess).
Maybe it's the same guy after all these years.... who just can't part with his 928 - even though at mid to late 60's now it's a challenge to get in and out of.

Steve88's recently sold his black 86 and my Meteor Metallic Grey 86.5 lives about a mile from me. I ran into a guy in a Mini out near Ashburn who has a 95 GTS....he said he'll try to make Frenzy.

Pink? Now that's something you don't see too often... a pink shark!

Which Mike are you guys talking about? I assume it's not me... especially since my shark is immobile at the moment and has been for a while. No shoes! Plus, if was me, you'd know it was me... I have about the loudest exhaust on Earth.

But I do drive a black 928S4 like a crazy person...

Don's in his 60's and I assure you he gets in and out just fine. Not to mention he ain't afraid to blow the doors off a car or two in the process!

If their wives find out all those cars belong to them and not some friends, they'll be looking for living space.

Don, I see that you've been a member since '02 (Me too, but a couple of years prior, I used to lurk on the Rennlist email list before this one).
So maybe it was you that I saw. Have you had your car since - or before then (pretty sure that it was before then that I saw this black S4).
Back in '00/'01 I was working in Annapolis and had checked out Tif's as a repair shop option...nice guy. Is he still there off of West?

J.P. -

I joined Rennlist in 2000 or 2001, when I had '87 944. Went over to the dark side, when I acquired my 928 in May 2002.

To the best of my knowledge, Tif's is still there. I sometimes use Tri Tec Automotive off of West St on Hudson St.

I think it was Mike. 89 S4. I spoke to him today and he told me that he has been driving the shark for a week or so because his DD was down. I didn't mention the post, but he did tell me that he is getting a lot of attention in the shark. I wounder if it's because of his speed? He'll be at Frenzy so we can have a Q&A with him. BTW he has turbo twist wheels.
