It's so sad (and unwise) that Porsche has decided to send ICE Caymans/Boxsters to the Great Car Graveyard in the Sky.

We had several fine days fly fishing on the Bow River, even landing some aggressive pike on Bow Lake. Thanks for the fine reminder!

I agree with Tim, poor marketing move by Porsche because the rules for Europe are different than their main outside market ( the US ) . They could easily have built 718s for the US market for 3-5 more years , easily, yet with China their other big market I guess they decided to go with the European rules and the Chinese trends. Sad as there is still a strong market here and a 718 Hybrid would be welcomed warmly , but an Electric Boxster/Cayman is not currently practical in many parts of this expansive Country. Glad I have my 2024 Cayman GTS and I would have to wager ICE machines are going to be a cool buy for many years to come , though the prices will be " Hot!" All puns intended , ha!

I like it! Here is my current, less ambitious, color pop.

Green to Checkered and all the ones in-between - love it!

edit - all except for the debris flag that some tracks use. :angel:
