    No action on the garage because I have spent the last month in Tahiti, Hawaii and Phuket. When I get back to HK in a week will start to move in cars. Garage is complete and everything is perfect. Unfortunately it was just before I started a big trip. Really looking forward to getting set up and pictures will follow!

    Always welcome. 430S in white (due in July), GT-R V-Spec in white (due in Oct), Evo X SST in white (just arrived from Japan this week) will look great with my 8C in red (due in July) so there are some youngsters in house too!

    I was in Hong Kong on Monday ... wondered around for an hour looking for a decent restaurant, ended up about 2 mins back from where we started ... although we didn't know it at the time!

    How the hell do you find your way around downtown Hong Kong?

    On the plus side ... I saw a suuuuperb 993 GT2 ... one of only 134 ever built ... just cruising through HK :)

    Do you have any Porsches DM?

    Downtown HK is no problem. But if I am Downtown i am more often in the back seat letting my driver do the work. Had many Porsche including CGT and 997 GT3RS (which i sold because I thought the car was rather underpowered). Now have a manual 997 C4S for fun. Will probably sell it when my GT-R V-Spec arrives and no plans for another Porsche. 993 GT2 is a big favourite of mine although I have never owned one.

    An awesome projected which budget and mind have to come along in the same package!


    O.T.: Spotted several nice houses around the Repulse bay, and some on the way to Stanley market. It is one of the best sceneric route on the island. Wondering you

    might be apparently living on that area as well!

    I live in the Southside. IMO the more scenic route is further along from Tai Tam to Shek O

    Weather in July and August sucks. Bring your umbrella. I will likely be in Alaska for most of both months so you won't see me on the road. No fun at all to drive anything other than a boring car in Hong Kong during July and August I am afraid

    Go on a trip to China. At least rain in HK will be warmer than what you are used to

    I am back from Phuket and ready to start moving in some cars. Got my new Evo X from Japan and it is just amazing. The DSG box was worth the wait. Will post photos when I get everything set up. Had to do my 2,000th post in my own thread!

    Moved in the Daytona, 288 GTO and F40 along with a few Harleys - FINALLY! The lift and turntable are fantastic. Will try to post some photos tomorrow before I head off to NYC.
