I'll be going with the Wifey and my 13 year old (he's gonna have to Squeeze in the back Seat). LOL. I believe Paul Miller Porsche is meeting up at 6:30 am and doing a Rally/Drive over to MetLife Stadium. Where are you heading in from?

I attended with my friend's AR 993TT - my first time in a 993 since selling my 993. I can't get enough of that car!

Hi, was there with my Son in the GR 993. This was the pic they wanted us to be in formation for. Photo credits from an Instagrammer.

Pretty good overall event. I met a few RL members and saw some really nice cars it was a nice mix of old and newer cars. They organized the “70” really well given they were set up for double the amount of cars initially.

I really enjoyed the event. Great cars and great people, what more could you ask for on a sunny Sat. morning? Standout, really would have to go to all the wonderful people I met, the cars had to be second in comparison to the people.
Big shout out to Roger who did all his own wrenching on his rad black 74 911 with the 993 engine, Mark and his back dated 78 SC with it's large supply of ear plugs on the dash and all the others who I just can't remember their names, sorry for that. Favorite cars, that gets a bit harder since there were so many amazing cars but, the white 67 911S, the late 60s-early 70s brown 911T, the silver 59 1600 Super drop top with all it's great patina, the white 968 with matching white Fuchs, roll bar and manual tranny and for something new, the beautiful grey/blue GT3 Touring whose owners I also really enjoyed talking with. At the end of the day though, I have to say, my favorite car was my own white 93 964 C2. Not that my car is the best or better than any other of the Porsches there, it's just that feeling of satisfaction and love of one's own car and nothing more. I am sure, most who attended and most who are passionate about their Porsches would agree. There's nothing really better than the Porsche you get to call, your own.

Nice day but was confusing to what was going on. A lot of no shows and people left early since they were quite disorganized. It looked like more cars there than the picture shows although most all were very nice examples. I was grouped with others in the lower portion of the 0 in the 70 with only three cars in my row which should have been spread out to make it more clear.




This PTS amethyst turbo S was stunning.

RUF cars were pretty neat. Rturbo and Rt12 (tip). Yellow Rturbo was a Nardo package car - good for 220 mph !

Met the owner who restored the white 356 next to RSR.

I had to leave early. Great weather - most fun was rally from PM to stadium. That Red Bull car was LOUD.

I agree it was good but could have been better...I was in my midnight blue 993 C2 behind the blue 930 turbo parallel to Cobalt on the outside of the "0"...his car was stunning as was that PTS amethyst turbo S definitely two of the highlights of the event for me along with the polar silver 993 RS Tribute.

Hi Jeff, it's Roger. It was great to meet and chat with you and your wife. I really enjoyed the people and cars. A friend and I ended up walking over to the flea market a few lots away for food and drink. More selection and no lines when compared to the Porsche event.
