Thanks Cobalt!

All I had on me was my phone, kind of wish I brought my camera but it was a spur of the moment trip. Weather was decent and I wanted to burn off a bit of fuel before I filled it up and added a bit of sta-bil for the winter.

I had the car resprayed Olive Green Metallic from the first gen Cayenne. It's really wild the way the color changes depending on light. Here in the shade it looks grayish but if you look back a few pages I have a photo where it's in morning sunlight and it looks completely different. And the wheel color was stolen from a GT3. I wanted to make the car different but still keep it in the Porsche color tree family.

The suspension is H&R "deep" coilovers. They came with the car when I bought it a few years ago but I'm still not completely sold on them. I'm probably midway height wise and they're just a bit too firm for me. As I'm getting older, I'm finding myself wanting a little softer ride. Still firm and planted but a little bit more subdued then these. I've been toying with the idea of selling them (they only have around 10-15k miles) and picking up a set of KW v1 or something of the sort but I like where I have the car height now. My delima now is to decide if the ride will be better with these in the middle of the height adjustability or another set near the bottom of the adjustability. The car is never tracked but does see some tight windy country roads

Default Can't wait for Spring

The only good thing about 911 hibernation is working on all those little car projects you were too busy for all year.

Still lots of projects to do, but just got the suspension sorted and went for a nice Saturday morning run.

​​​​​​That is where I recognize the color from. My wife wanted a cayenne in this color but ended up with beige. Hard to say but I am assuming you are running RS or RS-10mm. If you plan to run this height I would keep what you have. The K1's will probably be more harsh and to do it better will cost much more. I would consider 993 GT2evo uprights instead.

I am jealous, the weather has been so poor here these last 2 months I have given up and everything is away for winter.

A friend's USDM C4 (love that lipstick red interior!) and my old Honda S on the Hakone Skyline, and at Tatsumi PA with a zenki C2, to the kouki C4...

That’s a great way to get to the trailhead although a Safari 911 would make it even better.

Pulling out of the PA on Friday night, I had a set of 964 headlights right on my tail, I moved over and this thing went past rather quickly, disappearing off into the night.
He must have been travelling on at least the speed limit...

It seems I have a lot of 964 pics...
Suppressed need perhaps.
