[SD987]

Glad to hear you're well, Mach. I agree, that the Monterey peninsula has some nice driving. Not sure if I've been on the road you mentioned, but I was impressed with 17-mile drive - worth the $8 bucks for the privilege.

Still pleased with the 987 S, but keeping up with the Joneses in the Porsche world can be aggravating. Aside from the 3.4 upgrade in the 07 there's spy-shots out there of the '08 refresh. In a moment of weakness, or boredom, I even specced a 997 C4S cabriolet on the configurator the other day, but had to shut'er down after I saw that I was at the 150K+ mark with all the options I'd want.

When my current car cycles are up I've been thinking I won't get another Porsche and am looking forward to the new Aston Martin V8 Vantage roadster. This will of course make sense as I'd be going from the poor man's Porsche to the poor man's AM.

You should stop by more frequently. The forum has grown in membership quite a bit but some of the posters from the past don't seem to frequent the page as often, to the board's detriment.
