The best part of the trip was all the little towns in the mid-west and east coast! Around Rochester NY, I met up with a 2001 996 owner named Larry from Ohio who was playing golf with friends in NY. We drove together thru NY, PA, and OH until he turned on. Good guy, loved his mate black twisties he had.

And thats all I got for vacation photos 2018 (well ones of the car at least lol)

You don't have 93??? Your knock sensors must be working overtime :o

While I know it exists in some places here in the States, I've never encountered 95 (what these cars really want). That's why I said "aw fuck it" and got myself 11ish gallons of 100 at $8.80 something a gallon :mrgreen:
