Washington porsche,
While driving home from work earlier tonight, I saw a black 996 just like yours on 495south. Was that you smoking a cigar while driving??

Haha, the thread title cracked me up because I just took mine out to Ralph's for no reason, forgot my wallet, came back home, went back to Ralph's... ended up with some pizza snacks and six of Kirin (?). Took the long way back, made sure she was all warmed up. Got comfortable and started reading Rennlist. Weekend warriors, unite!

heh sounds like something I would do. Sometimes I just decide I need to drive somewhere far, just so that I can spend time in blissful driving.

How many miles do you guys drive per weekend? I use at the least a half a tank of gas though I don't recall where the hell I driven.

I usually get to drive only on Sunday - about 100 miles around town (I only have 20,000 miles on the car)

Yeah, quarter to half a tank sounds about right. Last weekend I took it to Santa Barbara. Some weekends I just take it around running errands or whatever. Friday night to Sunday night is all Porsche Time.
