The GTS Chronicles
(My buddy @crxrex already posted this over in the general forum, but I was thinking that the post is also pretty relevant to Euro Delivery, so I thought I'd re-post it here in the ED channel. Sorry for any sense of cross-post violation....)

Hey, everyone.
From time to time, you may have occasionally noticed a few posts from either myself or my good driving buddy Luke Ward (@crxrex). What we've not revealed until now is that Luke and I have simultaneous orders for two 718 GTS 4.0s: one a Boxster GTS, one a Cayman GTS, both in Guard's Red, both manuals, and specced in a very similar manner. We've ordered them (placed a year ago) with European Delivery and have a really grand dream of doing a super-detailed content piece of the whole experience, shared as driving buddies. This idea has evolved and morphed to the point where we actually think -- if done right -- it could actually be something in which Porsche might see some brand value and who knows, might want to collaborate on.
We also thought that maybe the forum community might want a peek at what we have in mind. We are calling our story idea "The GTS Chronicles". Check the following three pieces of media out, if you've got a few moments:
1. A short promotional video describing our vision (3m42s):
2. An Instagram feed "chronicling" the GTS Chronicles - @gtschronicles (https://instagram.com/gtschronicles)
(an ongoing timeline of significant events along with various semi-random things related to this journey)
3. And finally, a web page describing what The GTS Chronicles is
(and a bit of our backstory) - The GTS Chronicles (https://gtschronicles.com)
Let us know if you have any feedback. We're a little nervous that maybe this is all too cheesy or geeky, but whatever, we're hopeless enthusiast car nerds, so bring it on!
