Because I've beeen so succesful at capturing other
Porsche's on the road (in part to my new TREO and it's handy-dandy
digital camera), I thought it only appropriate to dedicate a section
to the many Porsche's in my sights. |

MD Boxter While in MD visiting family we went into downtown for brunch. On our walk back from a very nice meal I spotted this Boxter on the street. I took a couple shots of both the car and the family walking by the car to not look so obvious I was really taking pictures of the car... not so much the family. |

Colorado Targa While on our summer trip to Colorado we stopped at a motel to rest for the night. As we pulled in I caught this in the parking lot. Very clean. I don't normally like the brown 911s, but this one was very well taken care of. |

The 914 That Got Away Local traffic patterns have been screwed up here due to construction. So a road I normally drive I just haven't in a while. So I was surprised to see that a local gas station had been dozed and people were selling their used cars there. Wait a second, is that a 914? Let me tell you, it did need some work (VERY minor), but it was a fantastic example. I should have bought it on the spot. I should have offered him $500 less then his asking and driven it home. I walked out of the house with these words from my wife "...promise me you won't buy it until Stephen has had a chance to look it over...promise ME..." So I did, and I started the process of getting it over to Stephen to look it over... and I get a call that the car sold to the OTHER guy who was there looking at it same time I was... |

Porsche Three-Way Again, stopping by Imagine always has a good chance to show some cool Porsche's. I'm in the middle this time. |

Gold 944 on Southwest Traffic Southwest Traffic is right around the corner from my office. I visit a client which requires me to cut through on my way back. Sitting right there at a used car dealership is a gold 944. It's been there for over a month. Since I'm not in the market for a gold 944 I haven't stopped by and taken her for a test drive. |

Halloween Parade RS This past Halloween we dressed up the kiddies for our downtown parade. Beautiful day to walk around the block, go trick-or-treating sponsored by the local retailers, and... wait, is that a black RS? Tucked right on the main strip was an early 90's RS. Needless to say, my wife used my photo capturing need to poke fun. Justified. |

If I want an easy Porsche sighting all I have to do is swing by Imagine Auto. Odds are out front there are at least 2-3, while around back there are always a set of cars in progress. This one I can across during my "first" engine rebuild when I was stopping by to check progress. |

At Work Again Man, is my office park hopping with Porsches these days! The owner actually had the top down today (in the 70s here currently). |
|
At Work It's always nice to drive in early and see one of these sitting in the parking lot. Half asleep, I walked up to her, pulled out my camera, and caught the shot. After, I just kept walking. I almost forgot I took the images till I went to clean out my camera. |
|
On the Plaza We were driving back from KS when I noticed this Carrera from the other side of the river. I did a quick left and slowed down to capture her. Tail was up? Stuck? I don't know why it would be forced up. |
|
Office Park Parking Lot I've driven by this Boxter a couple times now. I'm guessing I'll be seeing a lot more of it from now on. It's a couple buildings over from where I'll be working. |
|
301 in MD We were driving down 301 when I noticed a 911 on a tractor trailer. The wife started to freak when I tried to snap a shot. As we merged onto 495 I got another chance, but this time it was a silver Boxter on the road. |
|
Driving to Work I was on 50 highway in the left lane passing cars when i noticed something. I grabed my cell, pointed out the front window, snap. Cayman. Black. |

Harry's
in River Market | |
944
Turbo on 50 hwy Traffic was bad; so I felt like a dick when I blew by him while merging. I tried to slow down to hold a hand of "hey" but he then flew by me. |
|
911 at Legacy Park My wife was getting pretty pissed at me because we had to leave and I kept backing up the car to get just the right shot. |
