Porsches to Oxford - A Porsche Car Show
Posted by Carlton Bale on July 31st, 2006
I would have missed out on this great car show if it hadn't been for my friend Kurt (whom I met at my first Porsche DE weekend) asking me if I wanted to go. So Nicole and I followed Kurt and his wife Becky to the small town of Oxford, OH. The entire downtown area was blocked-off for Porsches and there were a lot of great cars to see.
Had I known my car was going to be part of the show, I would have washed it. It was still dirty from the track and still had the numbers on the windshield, Oh well.
My favorite cars included a silver 1955 550 Spyder (Beck replica), a newly resorted black 356 cabriolet, a black 1980s 959. Apparently the photographer agreed because all of these made it into the 2006 event photo album .
There was a new 2006 911 Cabriolet (type 997) that really caught my attention, as did every new Boxster and Cayman. I don't need a newer car, but it's nice to think about! 
I was the lucky winner of a $25 gift certificate to Griots Garage (an event sponsor). So I can't say "I never win anything" ever again.
