Default Whatz up SOCAL ?

I was in the LA area last week on business for 3 days and I wondered how many 993's would I see. I saw ZERO, I thought that was kind of strange.

Most people don't drive their 993s in the weekday LA traffic, I am sure you saw how terrible it was.

How about 996 and Boxsters? There are always bunch of them on the road everyday.

What part of LA were you in? Hardly a day goes by that I won't see at least some year of 911.

Must be the same as New England. They're all hibernating 'till spring.

Weve had really bad weather out here. Last week Santa Anas were blowing - lows in the 60s and now they are calling for a chance of rain!

That is strange. I would have expected that you would have seen plenty of Porsches and more than a few 993's in "the OC". Since you seem to be defying the long odds recently you should make sure you get yourself a powerball ticket.

Needed to head over towards the Newport Beach area. Can't swing a dead cat without hitting some 911's in that place.

You would have seen plenty in the Valley too (San Fernando).

I just spent two full weeks (January) in Thousand Oaks, Malibu, Santa Barbara, etc (mostly T.O.), and never saw anything but one 996.

I live in Orange County and rarely see a 993 unless I hit Pacific Coast Highway on the weekend....
