Smile Fall colors drive

Took the top down, drove the 996 up Tucson's Mt. Lemmon, beautiful sunny day, windy roads, fall foliage, perfect temperatures!

What an excellent drive that was!

I hope you are all finding the opportunity to take your car out for some open air motoring on some beautiful Saturday or Sunday Fall drive!

In Seattle this is what we will see for the next 7 months...

BTW the picture shows the city, with buildings and people walking around, some of you might not have NW eyes and it might be hard to pick up on the subtle details..........that IS my car parked in the foregrond


any questions why I bought a bright yellow GT2 hood and wing
Nice shots guys!

Nice Wayne! I'll bet your car appreciated the beauty.

It's a shame that Phil's car never saw the color change!
