This is not a probability of success.

Just looking at the 6.2 800 ks of road crap and bad weather on her , No point cleaning her more crap weather on the way

So is there a secret clubhouse where the 996/997 crew organise drives in or around Sydney?
I’ve had my 996 for almost a month and haven’t even seen another one of our generation on the road. I did get a wave from a 991 driver yesterday though, bless him.
Just drove my 996 to work today. It is my daily, although I have been taking the Macan more lately because it has heated seats and it is stupidly cold here in the highlands
Mine’s my daily too. I was expecting I’d cross paths with a few of you in my travels, but not one yet.
I just sold a car with heated seats, I’ll miss them the most…
😅
I drive my 6.1 cab as a daily and it has heated seats
😉
the only problem is I don’t drive daily with WFH for the past 15 months
😢
.
I have suggested to dreamr that we do need to organise a drive either up to Wollombi or maybe head sth to meet up with Jeff.
All the Porsche crew down my way keep them in the shed all shiny

I'd drive mine more often, but to keep insured for the agreed value I've negotiated I'm currently restricted to 3000kms per year... And Luftwasser blew me out of the water this year
actually no - read it again you numpty ... as I mentioned I don't drive with anyone so there's no 'cool', or 'not cool' kids involved.
In terms of flashbacks, my memory is shot so anything past last week is a blur (which is lucky cos I don't want to recall you at all
🙂
)
I drive 996.2 every chance I get, which usually means on a weekend. Recently have been doing trip from the Central Coast to Yarramalong, Wisemans Ferry and then either through Galston Gorge or just turn around and back via Spencer.....
We started a Porsche group at the Sunshine Coast about 5-6 years ago and now have over a 100 folk with cars involved. We meet every Monday after a drive. We always seem to get plenty of cars and many 996 and 997's there every week. If we miss a week for a national holiday, the whingeing .... The trick is - no membership, no committee, no fees and just car talk and drives.
