Surprised the Hershey meet is the day before Easter and the Autocross is on Easter Sunday.

I’m looking forward to Hershey. My Touring lands in Davisville next week, so planning to drive that. Hoping for a good weather day.

If this is the Porsche of the future, I'm shopping around or taking up golf! I love the Philly Auto Show, take my boys every year, and often do the Black Tie Event, but this one was disappointing. I noticed a few other makes with limited fleets (e.g. Mercedes), and BMW didn't even show up!

Counting the days until the Porsche Swap Meet in Hershey and praying I can get through break-in on the GT3 before it comes around...
Did you take delivery yet? Are you getting PPF or ceramic? Your 997 TT was so tempting . . .

Yes, comes back from Oakes Detail tomorrow with full paint correction and clear bra. They did a killer job as always. Amazes me how rough the paint condition is on new cars.

The 997TT was a total, total gem. Hard to give it up. The buyer is a great guy and in Northern NJ - it's some small comfort to know it stayed in the region. Still suffering withdrawal from not having her - like the sensation of an arm once severed!

I'll be driving my '87 911 or GT4. Are you down the shore or is Avalon just a summer home? I'll be leaving from Haddonfield. We should get a group together.

I’ll be going from Kennett Square. I’m definitely interested in meeting up for a group run.

I am in Reading, PA... I believe I am on the way, or at least close. Can meet you guys at a rest stop or something along those lines.

The Riesentoter group meets up Sat morning in Malvern to head out. Haven't seen anything set yet though.

Just found this thread. Please wave or say hi if you see a 993 C4 cab white with blue top/interior or an Auratium GT3 Touring.

Slight correction: The Riesentoter Region PCA group caravan to Hershey starts at the United Artists Theatre in King of Prussia at 8:00am the morning of the event (Sat, 4/20) for coffee and donuts and goes wheels up at 8:30am sharp for a caravan up to Hershey. Nice and fun ride up, recommended. Separately, there is a standing weekly cars & coffee event for many different marques that generally meets at the Wegmans parking lot in Malvern, weather permitting - perhaps that's what you were thinking of.

If I end up going this year, I'll be headed out from Chadds Ford. My fiancee's family has a house in Stone Harbor - will keep my eyes peeled for you this summer!
