Paul's Trip – Day 9

princeton-porsche1

Yep, back-to-back Porsche sightings. Don't you love living vicariously through someone else?! Here's a little bit from Paul on these two pictures:

The black porsche, I noticed as we drove through the town of Princeton, which is located between Frisco and Caddo Mills. Princeton is a very small town on a farm highway in Texas.

This little fella looks dirty and neglected. It's actually parked in front of a cafe and has been there each of the three days we've driven by. I'm not even sure if it's running or not….looks like the makings of a decent car though.

    Paul – any way you can swing by there and inquire about this car's story? If you do, I vote that Ryan gives you 5 more ballot entries for your investigative journalism efforts.

    Looks like someone's toy. They probably don't care much how it looks.

    Abused and neglected indeed. It looks like the damage to the rear extends from the left rear quarter panel all the way to the other side of the car (you can see the gray bumper on the right side shot). Maybe it was in a shootout down in TX and got a little beat up running from the pokey.

    PS – Pasadena is the the home of amazing Porsches. I see at least three every time I go somewhere. Shoot, I see one pass by my house every hour or so.
