Great pics! Wow so many amazing cars, Speedy looks great as usual and fits right in.
And now I know why the famous Speedy wasn't at 993Fest, till next year.

Baron-- I am not worthy! Any photo compliment from you is high praise. Even without the benefit of your good eye & photography skills, your Turbo leads the pack for how a 993 should be dialed in for perfection, IMHO.
Besides lots of other goodness, I always look forward to an annual re-charge with RL's fun-loving Canadians -- a cool breeze from up north.
Even in 115 degree weather in Washington (any Cabrios drive with their tops down?), it was tough not to make this my 3rd Fest in 4 years.
But since they were the same week, Parade turned out to be the perfect choice for me.
^^ ^^
Can't blame ya, Mike. Gotta LUV those classic curves:
Looks good from the back, too:

After staying up late for the 'slumber party' under cover with the "60 for 60" group, it was an EARLY start to take the Concours field.
This brave 356 led the way out of the safe & secure air-conditioned cocoon to the Speedster Heritage/History Display...
...followed by a pristine 964 Speedster that literally looked better than showroom floor brand-new,
as if it had just emerged from a time machine that delivered it straight from 1994:

Started the day with top up for the Concours, then dropped it the moment judging was over so others might enjoy how a Speedster's meant to be:

It was amazing to meet a true part of 911 Speedster history at the Concours, but speaking of judging (above):
It was nerve-wracking to compete with the very same 1985 factory prototype that I've hunted down pictures of & posted on RL.
Read more about the high-tier award winner here. Its owners were SO great to meet, as well. The car & their charisma drew crowds to these Speedster celebrities.

Definitely can't find the windshield wipers
Can you find the windshield?
From this angle?
LOW-drag / low-profile!

Thank you for the pics Jager!
Just got a marketing email from Lufteknic. Featured in the email and on the Report: Porsche Parade 2015 on their website ...
(Link for the higher-resolution image.)
I was there when the owner drove his diesel tractor in -- quite a sight.

Great pics as always! Thanks for sharing. Glad you had a great time!
I think a person's face might ruin the whole 'low drag' concept.
Someone needs to install a set of itty bitty wipers on it. Just because - it needs them!
I wonder what the posts on the dashboard are for?
