Blue Ridge Parkway yesterday..... oh what fun!

Yesterday I attended a 928 event at Grandfather Mtn just off the BRP. B/f the group left for their annual blast up to Mount Mitchel I took a tour. The group of over 100 928s usually clogs the parkway up pretty good and I wanted some open road. This car just keeps impressing me every time I drive it. I know I sound like a broken record on this one but what an amazing car! It was also a huge hit with my 928 buddies too. A few said "this is what a 928 should have evolved into!" I think that the ultimate compliment.

Here's a few pics:

I honestly don't know which is more beautiful...the background or the CLK?

Don't worry Chuck. Even though you sound like a broken record it's music to my ears! LOL Proceed with the repetition.

You should video tape your cruise sometime.

There are only a few passing zones on the BRP, what would be cool is to video the face of the driver as I blow by them. I'm sure more than a couple about jumped out of their seat when they heard me blast by....
