To paraphrase Forrest Gump,<br />

every Mavs & Mochas is like a<br />

box of really good chocolates.<br />

In our case, you’ll never know<br />

how many awesome P-cars<br />

you’ll see.<br />

Such was the case on June 9, <strong>2018</strong><br />

at Mavs & Mochas celebrating the<br />

40th anniversary of the 911SC. With<br />

over 150 Porsches in attendance,<br />

this “box of chocolates” was<br />

incredibly good—it included a vast<br />

array of years, models, colors, and<br />

owners.<br />

Bill Orr (thanks) exhibited his<br />

charming doughnut-toting self and<br />

super early set-up for early-bird<br />

Mavs. So, how did it go? M & M<br />

was better than great! Not only<br />

were attendees delighted by lots<br />

of beautiful Porsches, there were<br />

throngs (yes, throngs) of Porsche<br />

enthusiasts. Newcomers and<br />

veterans bonded over solutions to<br />

repair problems and frustration<br />

over vexing recurring ones. A<br />

beautiful sight.<br />

There was lots of eye candy to<br />

go around, and most of us simply<br />

strolled around enjoying the P-car<br />

ambience, which included a silver<br />

Porsche reimagined by Singer!<br />

Ogled by all, lots of us were simply<br />

mesmerized, stuck in a good place.<br />

This M & M served as a preparty<br />

to the fabulous 70th<br />

Anniversary celebration at Park<br />

Place Porsche. It exceeded all<br />

expectations and I thank my fellow<br />

SC owners who showed up for our<br />

40th Anniversary celebration. All in<br />

all, Sportscar Together Day <strong>2018</strong><br />

was legendary and a good time was<br />

had by all.<br />
