Indeed it was VA plates. But I only noticed it as I went by because they were getting ready to tow it with several tickets on the windshield. Seems some cyclist had nailed it on the side for being parked funny (unless that mirror was always dangling like that) and it was blocking sidewalk traffic too. And three little kids were crawling over it drawing "Wash Me" on the back window. But other than this I have no idea who's it is.

OK my Bad! I must have seen the DASCOUP plate elsewhere. I just double checked and found it was in fact 911COUP. IDK who's car it is.

You actually had me worried with that second post, Ken, because DASCOUP is TR's car.

Was in Scotland for past week and spotted several Porsches, including three enroute from the airport to the Edinburgh hotel on Day One ... a red 944, a grey newer model 911 and a Boxster. Saw my only Cayenne in Glasgow along with two or three other p-cars in the Highlands, all newer models.

Really! IDK. I suppose subconsciously I knew that, or I knew I've seen that plate before and probably in his driveway too. But I wasn't thinking that this morning when I spotted this car pre-coffee. But I realized it must be a dorki from your other posts so I though I might embellish a little. I was kidding about the "Wash me". The pic was taken when I went down to double check. Too funny!

Was the '44 on a flatbed, tow truck, or just sitting by the side of the road?
