Spotted your car and upgrades on a 993 forum thread Macca - very nice. Those carbon bits look great. I am guessing North Island based?

I caught up with Macca in Auckland. The car is stunning. A work of art, I doubt there is a more sorted 993 in New Zealand. It looks better than when it rolled off the production line 16 years ago. I will see if I can upload the video I took of it.

Hey Macca, you would be more than welcome to join us on a run one day. The next one won't be until early February i think. We used to get together about once every three months but now everyone is keen on 6 weekly jaunts.........and rapidly running out of places to go.
If you and John are in the country when a run is on (check the website) feel free to join us.

Cheers,
Nick

Interesting seeing the size of the Panamera next to the 993. Maccas car certainly does sound nice. I have Fabspeeds on mine and I like it. Its quite loud but more interestingly a VERY different sound to Maccas 993. I prefer his as it sounds more crisp and refined. Mines just loud and obnoxious. If I get time I'll do a video of it and post it up.

The Panamera is a barge and even uglier in the flesh LOL!

Thanks Nick - would love to take you and the guys/gals up on that but alas I will be gone for the feb date but will keep in mint the April one. I hope this glorious weather holds. We had some excellent driving adventures to Whakatane this trip and out to Ohope around the back roads in the 993 and a friends 993TT. Supurb fun! The CannonBall 2011 run was also alot of fun too (needed 4 seats so the M5 was pressed into service). The porsche guys should do that annual event.

Cheers

Nick,
If you're running out of places to go, I can suggest some pretty cool driving roads around here. It might take 3 or so hours to get here but it would be worth it. Accomodations not too expensive either. I would come on your drives but it's the Auckland traffic that puts me off a bit........... a lot.
But I can work out some great roads up towards TeKaha. Happy to help.
Cheers
