Tervetuloa! Välkommen!
I am part of the early Finnish export program and relocated to the States in the late 70's. I grew up in Munkaniemi and still spend occasional summers at my place on Ramsinniemin (east end of Helsinki). This is why I am glad to see the Finnish contingent growing
Your GTS is stellar! What color is it? How was the drive to Travemunde on the autobahn? Have you met Jaako also? He had an 88 and a hobby garage near Malmi and not to far from Erkka I believe.

Thank you.
A long time ago I read somewhere: "the best (928) Porsche is the one in front of your house", so in that respect I think every 928 that is kept in good driving condition is a special one!

The color of my 928 is Irish blue. The drive back on the autobahn was great: I did a large detour and clocked up around 1000km, while doing max speed of 220km/h where aloud and possible
(as I was on winter tires with maximum rating of 240km/h).I have not yet meet with Jaako nor Erkka, just a matter of time I guess.

I'm really enjoying all that you, and the other sponsors, do for the 928 community at large - including me reading and following about events like SITM here on Rennlist. Keep it going!
