Default (RUF!!!!) I'm willing to bet you don't see this everyday

I stopped by to see Hans Hoffmann and the gang this morning and there was an obvious road block into the property.

Saw them this past weekend, really wish they had fired one or two up for us dreamers.

Great picture.

Jet, were you there on Saturday? I went there to meet a few guys from the 996 Forum that I had not met in person. I would have liked to introduce myself to you.

Just so you know, I made sure I parked my Accord 1/2 block up the street so I wouldn't embarrass anyone that I was talking with!

Nice pics. Where do North Dallas owners go for service after the warranty period? Mine just went up. I have been getting great service at Boardwalk thus far. Anyone with experience at other places. Sorry for the bit off-topic nature.

Last time I saw one of those up close was a couple summers back when I got my kids into an Usher video in Atlanta. We don't see many in my neck of the woods.

His car at the time...

RUF is a full service Porsche and European auto repair/sales/comversion shop. They will take care of all your out of warranty and service needs - best guys in the business - In fact, I always tell Hans that i don't know how they stay in business, because they are so honest (if it aint broke, don't fix) - they do the right thing ALWAYS!

Tim- Sorry, I was not there on Saturday - soccer practice, Home Depot, Bed Bath if we have time, etc.. My weekends are full with the wife and kids!! I am breaking away to the DE at Eagles Cayon First week in March though - Nothing like the smell of brake and tire dust in the morning!

Drop me your contact info, maybe we can hook up for coffee or lunch during the week.
