I'm new to this forum. I've known about it for a while, since Ed told me about while we worked on headrest covers for Porsche folding bucket seats. But I figured it was time to join since I have a new car coming...

First Porsche: 1970 911 T, Guards Red / Black interior
Current Porsche: 2017 911 Carrera GTS (991.2), Carrara White Metallic / Black Alcantara and Leather interior
New Porsche: 2023 718 Cayman GT4 RS, Arctic Grey with Weissach package / Black with Deep Sea Blue interior
I second Tom's welcome to Carpokes - we're glad you're here!

Nice cars too! The 4RS will be exciting as heck - the build's going to be a beaut I know! Congrats! (How's Ed handling that? I know he wants one in the worst way! :mrgreen:)

Hi everyone. New member here from the Houston, Texas area. I'm a regular on some other forums, but just finally registered here after seeing ads in the PCA magazine a few times. I have a Cayenne S that's my "daily" as well as a 968 coupe that is my weekend fun car. I participate in lots of shows and get-togethers (especially with the 968) and look forward to both consuming and contributing content here!

Pics of both cars:

1992 968 - Black / Cashmere - 155k miles

Hi Everyone! My name is Aaron and I just joined a week ago. I didn't see this forum page until just now. I guess I was caught up looking at all the pics and looking for mods for my 2023 718 Spyder convertible!

I live in the Tampa Florida area, and I have dreamed of owning a Porsche almost all my life lol..mostly my adult life.. just could never afford a new one till now...and still really cant afford it.... but YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE :-)

Thank you Tom for all you do and sponsoring such a great platform to chat with other enthusiasts! Thank you

A-A-Ron :-)
