We go to Cannon Beach at least once a year, backroads all the way from Bellingham. It's one fun twisty drive! I had serious back surgery this December, so this Summer we are taking off, but next year we already have reservations for mid July (I think!)
You get up to the Great North much?

Hi all. I was did the entire WWSCC slush series this year. I have had my Boxster for a year now and have been lurking around on this site for a while.

Were any of you with that group on the hood canal two weeks ago? I was up there for an event in Quilcene. It was really cool to see a Carrera GT in the wild!

I'm in the South Sound area (Lacey).

Unhappy Seattle Area Boxster Owners

I am a new Boxster Owner, and Porsche Club of America, Northwest Region. Just got my 2007 Midnight Blue, Boxster S (only 16K on it, like brand new!).

I love it, but not the ticket I got a week ago on my way to Palm Springs. Anyone have any ideas on how the Escort 9500ix works on a Boxster without taking up too much windshield view?

I'm also a new Boxster owner - Lapis Blue 2001 S. So far I love it. I own a few BMWs also and this car is the most fun you can have, clothed. Or not depending on your preferences.

I'm in Puyallup so looking for things in the South end. Thinking about starting a coffee and cars event down here.

Joined PCA and am joining the PNW club also.

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Hey, Joe.

Your Lapis Blue doesn't look much different than my Midnight Blue.

There may already be a Porsche Boxster Club here in the Northwest. If not, am more than willing to be a part of a "Coffee and Cars" event, or Porsche Club event here in the NW. I live in Seattle and Palm Springs (a bit older than you, 65 in July).

Let me know if you'd like to connect.

Thanks Spence.

I definitely want to do a 'coffee and cars' type event for the South of Seattle. So, here's what I'm thinking. There are events on the weekend but they're all in the North end (University Village and North) except for one on Wednesday nights in Tacoma. I'm thinking that Federal Way would be a good location at The Crossings shopping center (Hwy 18 & Pacific Hwy, just 1 block off I-5). There's a Starbucks there, a McDonalds, a Subway sandwich and Jamba Juice (something for everyone). Sunday mornings, 9am to 11am, starting in May and running to around October. All cars are welcome even if it's the family mini van. If this sounds like a good plan, I'll coordinate it with the property owners and get it started. I know I can't use 'Coffee and Cars' because it's trade marked so I'm calling it:

Cars and Caffeine. I'll probably still get in trouble, but I'm always in trouble somewhere so I don't care.

Comments, suggestions, whatever are gladly accepted.
