Rules i've learned here:

1) Washiing and waxing strokes in the direction of the airflow....no circular wiping please. Never take it through ANY kind of automatic car wash...hand wash only!

2) Regular Oil changes and examine the oil/filter for ferrous particles with a magnet or even send it in for analysis if you suspect something.

3) Drive it regularly to keep it working properly and for the sheer enjoyment. No garage queens please, we want to pull up next to you on the road, admire your car and flash a thumbs up.

Highly Recommended:

1) Take the car to a PCA Performance Driving School, you will be amazed at how you can learn to handle your own car in adverse conditions and when you want to go racing to be confident to ride it right to the edge of its performance envelope.

1b) Do one Auto-X just for fun, its highly addictive, lots of fun, you will make new friends and have an even bigger smile than you have already. Its competitive for standard stock cars as well, nothing extra required. Get the full Porsche experience! Our San Diego meets typically have over 90 Porsches, lots of pretty cars and excitement and you'll love all those engine sounds.

2) Learn to wrench on your own car. Many things are easy like Oil Changes, Brake Fluid Flushing, Brake Pads, Rotors, Serpentine Belt. Plus, you will save a bundle over taking it to a Porsche dealer for service and none of these things take more than an hour.

3) Take pictures and post them here, we love looking at Porsches.

Congratulations and enjoy!
