....not a Porsche but a 300SL Gullwing. I was driving my old SL at the time and thought I would follow him into the shopping centre. AZ has endless Sunday car meets, and we passed a very big Corvette meet (not my thing) the I began to see Porsches. Turns out there was a local PCA Concours with some very tasty cars indeed.............

I did not make it to that event but it looks like a great event I missed out on.

I am thinking that I might ship a car or two down from Canada next Fall; they are just stored there from November to April so might fun to use them here in AZ:)

Who accidently stumbles on a Porsche show! How great is that! What SL were you driving. I have my dad's old 1979 450SL and just took it for a spin this weekend!

A 2003 SL 500 that I bought new. It only has 32,000 miles on it and is in basically new condition. It was always a spare car and is used mainly for quiet cruises:)...........

I love that generation. Classis lines. Here's my dad's old car, after some elbow work...
