A New Year and a New Start

Here we are in 2023! We have a whole year ahead of us; let’s hope that our Porsche driving experience is even better than ever before. At this time of the year, many of us put together our New Year’s resolutions.

Here are a few New Year resolutions I’m considering (in no particular order): • Make it my goal to attend more

PCA GCR events and connect with like-minded enthusiasts • Resolve to take my Porsche on more road trips and adventures in the coming year • Make it my goal to learn more about the history and heritage of the Porsche brand • Resolve to explore more of the Porsche model lineup in 2023 • Have as much fun meeting and attending various events with other GCR members
