Dropping her off tomorrow for first checkup. Tune, all fluids changed, valve adjust and a look over. First 3 days since I owned her she will not be under my direct watchful eye especially at night.

Got to admit I am real nervous even though the doc comes highly recomended.

When I drop the Acura off for service I pray she is stolen so I have to drive my special one.

Who are you using?

Chris Powell. I am not so much worried about him as he has already cared for the car. Its leaving it over night for tonight and tomorrow.

I love the "Your wife still smiles and waves at me when I drive by your house"

Ouch, $2K for 60K service. Oh well, nobody ever said Porsche ownership was cheap.

Looking through the records that came with my car, the PO paid $2400 for the 60K a couple years ago at a Chicago Porsche dealership. So you got a deal!

Ever heard anything about Pete Bristow's in Tacoma? Trying to find somebody in the south end.

I have seen him mentioned on Rennlist but have no input from someone I know either way.

It was interesteding in talking to Chris's assigned mechanic that they don't put in blue brake fluid of go for synthetic oil. They use oil made for a diesel truck when they do oil changes. I froze for a minute because everyone here says to use the other two but Chris comes so highly recommended. I guess I will know the truth sooner or later.

Thanks Bearclaw.

ps. If you are looking for high octane gas for your car I found a place right in Auburn that sells 101 octane for $6 per gallon . I usually add 2-5 gallons to each tank. Sure makes a difference in how she attacks the road. Zero knocking either.
