Default Get out and drive your Porsche!
After reading all of these stupid value threads, and what kind of bubble wrap should I use when storing my GT3 I want to share this story.

Man does road trip in his Porsche to Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen from....... JAPAN!! That’s 9,330 miles (15,000 kilometers)

Full story here: https://newsroom.porsche.com/en/spor...ars-15895.html

Now Get Out And Drive!

That is epic! There's a post in Off Topic of a 90+ women driving her Boxter. Doing my part too. I did 200+ km in my 997 this morning, got lost, drove on dirt roads, and did a Kroger run on the way home for good measure. Get out there & drive people! Life's too short...T

500 miles in 3 days, basically just driving aimlessly in the back roads.

I also see see too much time wasted by people cleaning their cars, let her get a little dirty

Can't wait until I pick up my 3RS at Chicago and back to CA.... 2K miles (Thanks ADM !! I'll take this as a road trip for the memories, and then just ready for the track)

I'd drive my car but all I can think of is the money I'm losing every time the odometer goes up
