Uncovered FGT today as it was 76f, no pollen and stretched her legs. Was in roadblock on hwy for 30 min, drove her another 95 miles afterwords. A couple of pops at friends house and parked it, dirty but who cares......

great day to strech the winter legs out of her and enjoyed every F'ng minute:banana

Looks to be a dealer plate (not my photo). Why?

Did you delete your coupon photo or did I foul it up somehow? :confused

I must've fouled it up. The paint color coupon you instagram'd. Was wondering how it compares to Mexico Blue.

According to my buddy at Porsche of Monterey, this color is "Miami Blue". I can't tell much of a difference between the two.

Miami is much more turquoise than Mexico.

I un-covered my GT 4 weeks ago; I had a half-tank of gas sitting in there since halloween.

Between holidays and torrential Jan-Feb weekend rains, somehow I racked up 90 days of not driving.

Start up was fine; maybe a hesitation or gurgle here and there.

After third weekend of putting 100+ miles on the GT and 2 tanks of fresh gas, its all fine.

Yes, have some road mist/silt from wet run-off slicking canyon roads and early mist and drizzle.

Makes washing it more fun.

Get out and drive; esp. in Cali!

Saw a Miami Blue Porsche in Daytona and it is has a crazy amount of turquoise in it. Way different than Mexico.

I was at Amelia Island but you know you always have a local destination (my house/garage) if you need a reason to drive.
