Default Parade 2010 Concours Win

I was at the Porsche Parade 2010 for the Concours event July 5, entered in the Performance Touring group and won first place!!!!!!

Many will know my car as the one where the roof got crushed on my car lift four years ago. The restoration took three years to complete. I wanted to show the car at the 2008 Parade, but the car was still in the shop. I never expected to place given how some people prepare their cars for this event.

Many people came by and commented on how they liked the car.

This is the icing on the cake after the rebirth of the car.

Many thanks to and words of encourgement from Rennlisters far and wide during the ordeal.

Congratulations on your win! Especially after the painstaking rehab after the lift incident.

Congrats! As someone who has attempted to help a friend prep a car for a Parade concours (a near new 944), the level of prep that goes into this is pretty unbelievable.

Congrats! Saw your car Sunday and was amazed how nice it is. It's funny, my wife & both looked at it from the front and said "wow, I don't like Arena red, but this car looks stunning." Yes your car is that immaculate!
