I am super stoked to finally and after a year or two of searching I bought my speedster baby!
I'm in the LA area/Hollywood. So I decided to share the joy with you guys first before I break it on my social media!

EXCELLENT and 'Welcome To The Madness', Elication! Your car looks great. I'm betting you'll be spending the night in your garage staring at your new 'baby'!
Hope you'll join one of our cruises in that bad boy! Keep an eye on the 'Events' tab.
Have fun cruising the Strip in your Speedster!
Congrats on the new car Eli...looks GREAT
Awesome! I just got my dream car last weekend as well. Very exciting.
Enjoy your ride, by the look on your face, I think you already have. WTTM.
Gary
hahah yes indeed! Took my first ride from LA to Torrence to a friend's house! very sweet ride. took me 50 minutes. Kind of scary on the 405 with all those big trucks passing by you. MusbJim thanks! looking forward for those events!
I guess we can call that smile a SEG, Speedster Eating Grin?

I thought you spelled it sh*t, but what do I know...
Since it is a speedster list, I didn't want to do a $hitty thread drift..........

Nothing to tell; we haven't broken any rules and everybody knows what we're talking about!
congratulations on your new ride, and welcome aboard.
i am envious that you left-coasters that can be out and about in the winter months.
we're getting snowed on pretty thoroughly here in central new york right now.
my next cruise should be sometime in late april or may. grrrr.
enjoy your weather!
Congratulations to you, Eli! Enjoy the ride.

Your car looks great. I am brand new to SOG. I flew to LAX on July 8 and ordered my Speedster from JPS Motorsports. I'm still waiting to hear from John Steele. It's been a long time. How much longer should it take? I don't mind as long as it's perfect. Mine will be painted Carmona Red, does anyone have a picture of one this color?
Thanks Gary for the picture I think I will like it.
Ron and Eli... looks like we have two new guys here in So Cali driving our tubs... NICE... As the boyz have said WTM ... That being said you need to get in on our So Cal drives and meet the gang... Hopefully by that time Ron, you'll have your ride from John... we enjoy our selves here and look forward to meeting you guys on the road here in so Cali...

Ron,
See attached. Mine is also a JPS, 2007. The color is Carmona Red Metalic, and is an official Porsche color. Pls tell more about your build.

Thanks for the pics Dave. That's exactly what my car should look like. But I live in Georgia and unfortunately I won't be able to ride with you guys It seems like you have too much fun! My car will have the Subbie engine, how well does it perform?, how about the heat and A/C?
Dave?? Who's Dave??
Ron,
Anyway, we all wish we could ride all year w/ the SoCal boyz, but it is just not going to happen. I did fly out there one week end a while back and putsch around Moro Bay and environs one spring. Very cool. But GA is not the end of the earth, except maybe in August. We have folks down there, So. Carolina, Arkansas, etc. What I will suggest is you look here for threads in Events that will start up any day now about the big bash in Carlisle PA in May. Last year over 50 cars and 80+ people. From the mid-west, down south, etc. Caravans form up. Some take a few days to get there. It is very cool fun. We have had brethren from SoCal fly in just for the event. And traveling w/ a group in a caravan takes some of the stress out -- someone to bail you out if needed, extra tools, and so forth. Just don't let Lane tune up your carbs. ;-) He's in SoCarolina, I think. Anyway, give it some thought.
It truly is a madness . . .
Ok Kelly, it looks like you're going to have to do something really memorable at Carlisle as people seem to have trouble remembering who you are. I suggest drinking heavily.
"I suggest drinking heavily."
And so what will be different this year??
I'm gonna do the autocross. I really am -- I'm gonna do it, yessir . . .
I am DAVE! remember that Sir... So Cali Dave or Speedster "D" to those that matter on this site! LOL... Happy New Year everyone...
