Saturday was a beautiful day for a drive here in New England. I was heading to the Tappan Zee to meet a PCA member selling a set of BBS RS GT wheels. Spotted this car in Bridgeport, CT. The car looked super clean, and I managed to squeeze off a few photos. The autumn leaves, autumnal light, and the red 993 all came together perfectly. Anyone know this car?

Jim,

Is that an ML that you are driving? Only because I recently sold my 2009 ML63 and those hood vents stuck out to me in the photo..

Hmmm I've been thinking of picking up a naturally aspirated ML63. Not to hijack the thread, but what was your opinion of it? I'm a big fan of the older ones with the 6.3L V8...

In the interest of not derailing this thread too much PM sent

I was driving my wife's GL 550. 135,000 miles and the car runs beautifully. We owned a prior series ML 550 - great vehicle, but too small for all of the the family's ski gear.

Hmmmmm, just how many sets of wheels has that GL picked up at this point?

LOL Al,

Seems like just yesterday I was backing the GL down your snow covered driveway for those minty Sport Classic II's. They will be going on the zenith this weekend for the winter shoes.

I think I have as many sets of wheels now as you have 993's.

If the first step is admitting that you have a problem, then yes, I admit I have a problem. But I saw these wheels listed on PCA for just $1,000 and couldn't say no. They're perfect for the track.

Is that the Merritt Parkway? Used to live in that area ...

I went and checked my garage, my car is still there (so "not me").

Yes, I hadn't been on the Merritt for many years (84 to 684 to the Saw Mill is my usual route). The roadway was in nice shape, and it was a great drive.
