Congrats, Droo, we would love to hear any comments about it...am wondering which of the folks will realize the significance
Chris there is no doubt folks understand the significance of that car. Droo has given a number of interviews to press and media people on it this day. It is generating a lot of buzz, and was invited to the very exclusive hangar party to be displayed in the hangar. This is awesome and I am humbled that Droo brought it to our show!

One more day and I'm on my way. Can't wait to be there!

Love that pics of Ed too! Appears the driver seat with the VIN plate is the money-shot.

Jim - cannot wait to get #6 here too - this is a double whammy - such a historical event for Porsche people (who definitely do seem to grasp the signifcance) and for us 928 guys in particular!

Ha! Nice. I'm glad my sister ran into you guys. Was also nice chatting with you today on her phone. She sent me a nice video tour of your car. I especially like the door tag with the name of the importer etched into it. Cool quirky stuff on #1. Hope to get to see it in person someday and cash in on the beer offer!

We plan to be at the double wide welcome party this afternoon. We're looking forward to showing #1 to what will likely be the most appreciative crowd of the week and first time meetings with many of you. Hoping for a safe, successful, and fun drive for everyone coming in today.

Best Saturday breakfast I have had!!! Brilliant!!! great interview Droo, so good to hear people that obviously have both the knowledge and passion for their vehicle.

Got a real sense of the occasion.

Cheers for posting Nate

#1 at the PVGP porsche welcome party Friday evening. Got to connect some faces with avatars and see some phenomenal 928s. Otto's car just blows me away every time I see it.
