Red 993 yesterday, think it was an "S." Drove by me at normal speed as I was waiting to walk across Columbia Pike. I was on Blair Road. Even though it was pouring, the car looked clean and sounded great. Cool seeing someone driving that car on a rainy day.

There was a nasty wreck at this same intersection last week. Someone rolled a CRV three times after contacting an Accord coupe. Not sure who ran the redlight, though. The intersection is about 100 yards from the fire department, so they were on the scene immediately. Heard it took nearly an hour to cut them out of the CRV, which ended up on its side. Tough little car, though. It looked driveable, except that the entire top went to the jaws of life.

I saw the aftermath of that wreck. It was pretty bad.

Dark Blue 996 Turbo on Sunset Hills in Reston today around 11:30. Got a wave as I pulled along side in the 944.
