Amen to that, Simon! But it would be better for Pete if my friend and colleague had his own subscription. Which gives me an idea!

Thanks, Tom!

They’re my ‘winter’ wheels and the 20” Carrera S wheels finished in Titanium Grey will be going back on as the weather gets milder.

I like the silver Carrera wheels too and it’s nice to refresh the T with a new look for a few months of the year.

Or Easter present, or just a present.

Say, Pete, speaking of ways to promote 000, maybe encouraging current subscribers to give subscriptions as gifts might be one? Just my $0.00125 worth. ;-) Some magazines encourage subscribers to do that by providing discounts for more than one subscription...hint, hint. ;-)

God bless,

Since California is Porsche's largest US "market," would it make sense to concentrate promotion efforts in California to begin with, especially since 000's headquarters are there? Instead of encouraging California Porsche dealers to give 1 year subscriptions to 000 to purchasers of new Porsches, would you consider encouraging them to give one free issue (maybe only to purchasers of 911s and 718s?), which you might sell the dealer at an attractive cost (maybe Porsche NA would help subsidize them?)? It seems to me just one issue of 000 would blow away pretty much anything else the dealer might give the customer. Could 000 handle the production of that many additional copies? Sorry, my brain won't stop noodling about this, perhaps because it's part of what I do for a living. I'd bet you've been over all this territory already.

God bless,

This warms my heart. To see a 000 "pizza box" far from our offices in San Francisco, in the snow, is just plain cool. And man, doe the T look great in white without PCCB. Love it!

This pizza box just travelled 4,735 miles (not bad for $20 shipping cost) and has arrived safely at the home of this Carrera T owner

Looking forward to savouring this masterpiece over the next few weeks...

P.S. Apologies that the photos are out of order



The anticipation builds...!

Pizza box in good shape after travelling 4,735 miles!

Something to savour over the next few weeks...

Apologies that T is not clean, but it is a daily driver that’s covered nearly 12,000 miles.

Edition 006 of 000 featuring... ...a Racing Yellow Carrera T!
