Default Is Plano, TX becoming the 993 capital of the US?

I've seen a black 993, white 993, Red 993 (driven by a blonde lady), and various 911s driven in the area. Then there is mine.

I don't see as many in northern California the last time I was there.

Since last Saturday I have seen about 15 different 993's in the area around my house. I saw 4 today alone on my way to and from work.

I thought Katy Texas was rapidly becoming the center of the 993 universe . . .

It's all the Illinois people who moved to TX!
Hope to be one of them soon.

The Katy contingent was present at the last 993 meeting shown here at the last secret meeting just outside Plano. Conspiracy theorists will note a strong connection between S. Texas and N. Texas!

I see quite a few, but have not seen the blonde? Have you seen the pristine C2S in Polar with the aerokit? I have not had a multiple sighting in a day in a while. Pretty jealous of Pirahna, if I saw 4 in a day I'd buy a lotto ticket! The number one 993 I see is the OP's as Anthony commutes by close to where I live. He doesn't see me though because I'm in my truck I keep thinking I will see him blow by me one day with that supercharger howling

It was a blonde lady driving a Red C2 on Springcreek bet tollway & Preston. The last time I saw a blonde in a 911 (993 also) was in the Oaklawn area. Hotness!!!
