Did you guys had a run on the past Sunday ? Unfortunately I was out of town. Hope we can have another one soon. My car has been sitting for so long.

Can anyone recommend a HK mobile detailer to give a car a wash valet and wax etc ? Not for the 993 so doesn't need to be top end. Thanks!

I use "Cars" for both my BMW & Porsche. Is there such a thing as mobile detailer here ? If you want top end car detailing, you should try "Keeper" from Japan.

Its not a real Turbo S because the model was only available for sale late 1997 and 1998 as a celebratory end to air-cooled Porsche.

Besides, I am very suspicious of the authenticity of the ad as the pictures seems to be taken from a magazine article and other sources.

FYI, there are at least three Jebsen supplied Porsche 993 TTS in HK: Exterior colors are Grand Prix White, Silver, and Speed Yellow.

Did anybody watch The Layover last night with Anthony Bourdain. They were in Hong Kong and as they were crossing the street they had to wait for a silver 993 to pass in front of them and they commented "Hold on wait for Mr. Porsche"

Mine is refinished. Shall we have a morning drive on Sunday morning (Jan 1) ?
