^^ My thought as well. There is a prominent RIM executive (cant remember his name) that is a huge Porsche aficionado and has quite the collection I have heard.

It was bought at Pfaff. People reported seeing it inside their showroom for a few days before delivery.

Very cool. Let's get Wekerle on the fall cruise, he seems like a blast to be around!

“He’s like Mick Jagger meets Warren Buffett,” he says. “He heard the concept, understood it immediately and said, ‘I can do this, no problem.’”
