Default Sharktoberfest 2012

Greetings Porsche 928 Owner!

We hope that you are already planning on attending this year's annual Porsche 928 event, "SHARKTOBERFEST '12" scheduled for October 19-20, 2012 in Anaheim, California.

This prestigious event has grown to historic proportions. Last year's event proved to be a tremendous success, gathering over 100 Porsche 928s in one location.

If you had attended last year's event, you would already know what a sensational time was had by all. This year's event will prove to be even better, though it hardly seems possible!

The focus of SHARKTOBERFEST is the camaraderie among owners of this German super GT. You'll be able to share your 928 experiences with other owners and make new 928 friends at this event. We have scheduled in plenty of time for you to enjoy the many 928s on display throughout the day, from daily drivers to garage queens, as well as race cars and modified street machines. Plan to be amazed by the display of so many Porsche Type 928s in one location.

Sharktoberfest '12 will be a great opportunity for you to meet and view presentations from some of the most knowledgeable and technically adept 928 personalities in the nation.

Take the time to browse through 928 International's amazing collection of 928 parts! This will be a great time to get the items you need to maintain and enhance your car. There will also be other 928-related items available for purchase should you desire. Enjoy a fabulous BBQ lunch on Saturday, generously provided by 928 International.

We are in the final stages of this elite event, but we wanted to get a message to you letting you know that this is an event that simply cannot be missed! We are so excited over this year's activities that we can hardly wait to tell you about them.

We will be contacting you again as we get nearer to "SF12".

For more information, visit our website dedicated solely to this event at http://sharktoberfest.com.

For more information on the event and for all your 928 parts needs, visit 928 International at www.928intl.com.

For discussions related to Sharktoberfest, post in this thread.

Make plans to join us at Sharktoberfest!

Does he physically copy the key or go by number? I'm way to far away and I haven't even taken delivery of my car, but I do want another key. Any contact info?

I' definitely will try to make this event. I have a oversea trip coming up near that time, is the date "scheduled for October 19-20, 2012 in Anaheim", or Oct 8th on the website?

ooops, just saw the link said 2011 Oct 8th... hope I can still make it...
