Welcome! There are a number of good Porsche shops in the area. I have used Performance Automotive in Malvern quite a bit on a number of my Porsches including a 996. Great guys and they do great work. http://www.pfmauto.com/
Also, be sure to update your PCA Region to Riesentoter if you haven't already. We do a ton of cool events in the area.

I highly recommend performance in Malvern. Peter and Paul know Porsches better than anyone in the area in my opinion

Not sure If you’re last sentence was asking for a realtor or house, but I have a great realtor I can recommend if that is what you’re looking for

Thanks, for the Porsche recommendation. I wasn't asking for a realtor as we are working with one. But will send a PM for your recommendation

Default Pa roads

Good Morning Pa Rennlisters,

I am planning a fun drive with a good friend I haven’t seen in years the week after Thanksgiving. I live in West Chester, Pa area and he lives in Northern, Nj.

I am looking for recommendations on roads to spend a few hours on in the Eastern Pa region.

I’ve heard about roads in Del Water Gap ?

he has a B7 Rs4 and I’ll be taking out my GT3RS. Likely having a 991 GT3RS join us also.

Any suggestions will be appreciated!

John (orange RS) has tons of great routes. I love Pa RT 125. I’d suggest taking to him. Pm me if you need his info

I would love to join and could help out if necessary. Hunterdon County, NJ and usually end up in Warren and Sussex just on the east side of the river.

_AzEuros_ I start in Easton, PA and head north along the Delaware River to Milford and stop for coffee. It is then a short ride to Hawks Nest to stop for pictures. I then take a round about way to Hawley PA to stop for lunch at a brewery and more coffee if needed. From Hawley I take a more direct route home. I would be happy to provide more specifics if needed.

Stay in Warren and Sussex counties in north Jersey. The roads in Monroe county suck. I live in water gap and cross the bridge to Jersey to drive better roads.

If you're looking for a great WC local drive, this is my normal route (I live over by Marsh Creek).
Take rt 282 North AKA Creek Road out of Downingtown (I just made the start location 282 and Dowlin Forge because that's nearest me) for about 9 miles. Hang a right on Fairview and run that all the way out to rt 100 for about 7 miles. Take a left on RT 100N for less than 1 mile and a quick right on Flowing Springs road. Flowing springs for 3 1/2 miles until it dead ends on St Matthews. Left on St Matthews for about 2 miles until it dead ends on Pughtown. Take a right on Pughtown. It will take you through the little village of Kimberton and it will hit RT 113. From there, you can take a left and go up to Phoenixville for some eats/drinks on Bridge Street or take a right and head back to your starting point.
