    Speeding in Malibu

    Well, I got an early XMAS present Sunday morn!

    I took the RS out on PCH heading towards Malibu. Gorgeous day, no traffic....so I hit it. Flying by the beautiful ocean on my left when I glance into my rear view mirror....and what APPEARS to be a Motorcycle Cop REALLY close in, basically tailgating me...but I can't be SURE. (Alas, the fuse to my Cigar lighter had blown, so my Radar was not working....) I SLOOOOOO down, creep over to the right, glance into the mirror...and he's still behind me. No lights yet, but I'm thinking, '****! I'm doomed! Exhibition speeding AT THE LEAST! Then, he pulls along side my drivers window, creeping forward, now parallel with me....

    "Excuse me", I hear....and then a mumbled question. I glance over. 'S***!' I think to myself. 'It IS a cop!'

    Having not heard the question, I sheepishly turn. "Sorry, what?"

    Then I hear..."is that a REAL RS?"
    Why, 'YES'!
    "Beautiful, I used to have one....wish I still did...." and then he zooms off....

    Merry Xmas!

    Wow, that is a real gift! I can imagine me saying, "Why, yes, it's a real RS with a real dirty seat right now."

    Stacy,

    Get that detector up and running !!!!!!!!!
    And even at that, you REALLY have to have your 'personal' radar up and running ALL THE TIME...
    Sorry bud... there's a time and place and PCH on a holiday weekend usually isn't it...

    I was up 'above' you yesterday and went through more then a half a tank in 80 'good' miles...

    My Valentine goes from car to car... without it, I feel like I forgot my pants...

    Holiday Cheers bud.... Good story... you ARE a lucky SOB ... buy a LOTTO ticket...

    You Luck Bastard

    Well, a cop who is a car head. That has Ca al over it. I am an East Coast guy who has spent about 2 months in Malibu and San diego consulting with clients since the wild fires. The whole car culture in Ca. is so much different than the area I call home. New England has some great back roads, but most are more akin to great GT cruising roads. I have been staying in Agora and driving the canyon roads to Malibu (in my rental car) and thinking the public roads are nothing more than go kart tracks! To se a porsche or ferrari working it, coming the opposite way is instant entertainment. Give me a R clone with rock hard torsion bars and airport gears and let me loose. As I have flown back and forth coast to coast I have also stared out the plane window as the plane lands at O'Hare for a flight change and have looked at the roads on the Great Plains. Straight for miles and miles. Porsche pergatory. I hope you guys appreciate what you have out there. Porsche heaven. tom

    Perfect!

    I can only day dream of driving the RS on the PCH at Christmas time. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas to you too.
