Editor’s Notes (Cont. from pg. 5)<br />

RSR programs might stay fairly strong<br />

as carriers of the corporate escutcheon,<br />

if anything because they don’t threaten<br />

any program from the rest of the VW<br />

holdings, <strong>and</strong> <strong>this</strong> may be the best news<br />

as arguably these cars advance the street<br />

cars we all can drive very directly. On the<br />

other h<strong>and</strong>, what becomes of the R8 <strong>and</strong><br />

R10, the “911 fighters” from Audi? Oh<br />

<strong>and</strong> how does the Panamera fit in against<br />

the A6 <strong>and</strong> A8?<br />

If you’ve got ideas <strong>and</strong>/or opinions<br />

about <strong>this</strong> let me know. Hey write up<br />

an article <strong>and</strong> share it with your club<br />

members; these are indeed “interesting<br />

times.”<br />

Speaking of the Panamera<br />

It is here! A Porsche with four doors. No<br />

that’s not a first, of course the Cayenne<br />

gets that distinction in history. But<br />

Porsche now has a sedan <strong>and</strong> the early<br />

driver reviews I’ve read are generally<br />

complimentary. The styling on the other<br />

h<strong>and</strong> revives the controversies that I<br />

remember with the Cayenne launch, those<br />

that hate it <strong>and</strong> those that love it with no<br />

one in between. I have not seen one in<br />

person so I’ll withhold judgment, but I<br />

will say that I’m hoping it looks better in<br />

the flesh.<br />

Epidermis<br />

I always thought that Epidermis was the<br />

name of a Roman Emperor. Or was he<br />

the guy that pulled the thorn out of the<br />

lion’s claw? But no, that is the correct<br />

Latin name for your skin. As the poem<br />

say, “be kind to your skin, it’s the only<br />

thing that holds you in.” After many years<br />

being outdoors, my own pelt is getting a<br />

bit used up. Enter the mostly painless<br />

Doctor Peter Helton, the friend to my<br />

skin. Can you imagine what I’d look like<br />

if Dr. Helton didn’t blast me with liquid<br />

nitrogen from time to time? And to top<br />

it all off, the good Doctor drives a GT3.<br />

That’s the kind of contact you can make<br />

in the Porsche Club, although I can’t<br />

guarantee you’ll end up as good looking<br />

as me. But it’s worth a try.<br />

Stimulus<br />

Mrs. Cooper is no stranger to deficit<br />

spending. When I borrow her car―the<br />

black BMW 750i I call the NSDAP staff<br />

car―I struggle to keep it to the left when I<br />

drive past South Coast Plaza or any other<br />

one of a dozen high-end shopping centers.<br />

Now you too can stimulate the economy<br />

by keeping your Porsche in tip top shape<br />

with our sponsors. Read the president’s<br />

column <strong>this</strong> month, Mr. Arm<strong>and</strong> Gastelo<br />

makes a good point.<br />

Ciao Bella!<br />

Speaking of Mr. Gastelo, I drove with him<br />

to Italy last month; yes really. Arm<strong>and</strong><br />

has an insiders touch with Pelican Resort<br />

<strong>and</strong> we got the royal Italian treatment,<br />

including a bit of bubbly on the terrace<br />

overlooking the sparkling blue Pacific.<br />

The whole day <strong>and</strong> tour which began<br />

at our newer sponsor (?) was molto<br />

Bello. It made us feel lucky, <strong>and</strong> happy<br />

to be part of the Orange Coast Region.<br />

So it is appropriate at <strong>this</strong> point to say<br />

Arreviderci.<br />
