Welcome to Manhattan.
I've been here for about 2 years, and I often drive my GT3 in the city. mostly at night or in the weekend.
I service my car at a shop in Long Island: M-Chanics.
And I park my car at parking lot on 42 and 9 called MPG. it is ok price, and more importantly, it is self park. it has 5+ floors.
Multiple Porsches in there, even a 9ff.
Feel free to connect via mp if you need more info

I live outside NYC and fully agree with others that have said live outside the city and commute or store your car outside the city. Do your research if your going to live in NJ as the commute can be brutal by car.
I believe the Classic Car Club of Manhattan provides car storage in Hoboken, NJ which is easily accessible via train or ferry service from NYC.

the good old news is that roads like this are only an hour ( plus ) away from NYC.

I'd also suggest the 7 lakes road near Bear Mountain: less crowded and more fun than bear mountain.

lived in NYC last 15 years, half a dozen Porsche GT cars there and many others, no issues, left the city when i was going on drives or going somewhere, if i had to go downtown i wasn't taking a car anyways. not sure what all the drama is about, its not a big deal. Take care of your cars, tip the Valet guys, its just a car, life is short. Live well today, don't protect or sacrifice things for tomorrow.

Roebling Bridge Lackawaxen PA
NPS 615 ( National Park Service) is one of my favorites as it’s pretty isolated has some awesome turns, very tight and very technical- not so smooth it some spots but I take it as a challenge - I learn to read the “ texture “ of the road and adjust my speed accordingly. There’s no side street entering the flow of traffic and obviously weekdays are best. What ever you do don’t go up the road towards Blue Mountain Lakes - I wouldn’t take a 4 x 4 up there. When I come to the intersection for the road towards Blue Mountain Lakes I turn around or you can follow the road onto Old Mine Road.
Another one one of my favorites is Pennsylvania Route 590 from Lackawaxen PA to Lake Wallenpaupack PA - awesome road with some extremely challenging turns. Start at Port Jervis NY and pass through Hawks Nest to the Roebling Bridge and onto Route 590. Once in lake Wallenpaupack head towards Dingmans Ferry PA VIA Pennsylvania Route 739.
And another favorite is Storm King Highway just north of Bear Mountain.

Cover the car in PPF and you’re good to go.
Having a nice car in the city is a real treat. Plenty of people in NYC keep their Porsches here, they’re just too busy enjoying living here to post on Rennlist ; )
I look forward to seeing your GT3 on the streets on New York.

Has anyone living in NYC used parking in NJ along thre Path line?
Also when getting car insurance, does it matter where you park the car vs where is your residence? I’m guessing insurance rates would be a lot lower in NJ or upstate NY.

My insurance company wouldn't even let me store it in Jersey (out of state).
