Upcoming Porsche Swap Meet at Porsche of North Houston

The Lone Star Region of the Porsche Club of America is hosting the 2nd Annual Porsche Swap Meet at Porsche of North Houston, Saturday October 16th, 2010 from 8:00am - 2:00pm rain or shine!

If you’re seeking an obscure part for your Porsche, this is your best chance to find it in the Greater-Houston area. Every Porsche packrat and a handful of dealers in a 250-mile radius will be bringing their odds and ends for sale or swap. In addition Porsche of North Houston will have OEM Porsche parts at discounted prices. You’ll see a range of Porsche models and parts rarely seen together! Last year, we had a great turnout of 60 cars ranging in model year from 1953 to 2010! The event has a free admission and will offer food and beverages on site. There will be a “Porsche Through Time” car display in addition to all the vendors and swap items.

For more information on the event, or to inquire about becoming a vendor call us at (888) 510-4711

Spyder Impressions

Three employees with at least a combined 100 years of Porsche experience all agree. The Spyder is the real deal. This is no sheep in wolf's clothing. The Spyder has a distinct look that separates it from a Boxster, but it's what's underneath its skin that makes it special.
The Spyder handles like it's on rails. It stays flat in the corners and is very predictable. Reports are now coming in from PCA driver education (track) programs that have the Porsche Sport Driving School instructors passing almost everything on the track. Yes, these are great drivers, but power to weight, center of gravity, weight distribution, suspension tuning, and everything else that comprises Porsche engineering makes the Spyder a giant killer. Historically, Porsche has used this same formula to achieve incredible feats in racing. There is a purity about the Spyder that transcends transportation. Jack McCall, Rodger Gay, and David Moore will all tell you the Spyder has won them over. This is the new weapon of choice for our annual assault on the winding roads of the Ozarks.

Accolades For Porsche of North Houston

As some of you already know, we sponsor all of the local Lone Star Region Porsche Club Of America events, so we were thrilled to get this letter from the National Club!

Dear Mr. Blue:

At the recent Lone Star Region Porsche Club of America (LSRPCA) Club Race, I had the opportunity to visit with Rodger Gay while checking out the Porsche models on display along with dozens and dozens of other Porsche fanatics. I wanted to offer a sincere THANK YOU for sponsoring this year’s LSRPCA Club Race!

As a member of the national Executive Council for the PCA, I visit Club Races all over the United States and Canada. It is easy to see that the connection between a PCA Region and a specific Porsche Dealership is a win-win situation. The Lone Star Region, with over 1,000 primary members, is one of the largest of the 139 PCA Regions. It is obvious they are very proud to have Rodger as a member of the LSR Board and to have Porsche of North Houston as an advertiser in their newsletter. Seeing Porsche of North Houston as the premier sponsor of the Texas Two-Step Club Race was the icing on the cake!

Thank you again for your support of LSRPCA – the appreciation and respect for Porsche of North Houston among the membership is clearly evident.

Very best regards,

Caren Cooper
PCA National Secretary
