    John, I hope you're leaving plenty of opportunity for sex.








    But please spare us the details.

    Go get 'em, JP!

    I may never make it to Europe --- let alone, Italy, so . . . take lotsa pics + tell us yer tales --- everything you can . . .



    Plus? . . .

    . . . I like all the 'projects' + 'builds' as much as the next guy, but . . . it's especially nice to see someone actually drive their Porsche some place . . .



    And be sure to post some fuel costs, too, huh?

    And have fun!

    .........

    Sounds like a great itinerary John. If you've never driven the Amalfi coast you're in for an experience. I remember my first drive there in my 72S Targa many moons ago. All the curves have mirrors and the locals use the mirrors to look for oncoming traffic and will pass you on blind curves.

    If you are staying in Portofino one of my favorite restaurants was La Paranza in Santa Margherita. Good luck on the Grand Tour.

    And maybe they can catch a NASCAR race while in Europe as well? Or see the Grand Canyon?
