Newsletter 55 Porsche Parade Mexico 2008
The Porsche Parade Mexico 2008 is the largest event of its kind in Latinamerica with 251 Porsches invited and over 700 people participating. This year's Parade was presented by Porsche de Mexico assuring a magnificent organization.

This year's Porsche-a-thon brought the most amazing variety of Porsches ever in our country, from the 356 to the imposing Carrera GT and everything in between, but don't take it from me and...
Let's check out the action...
...to the early 911's... this magnificent example in classic creme color... simply tremendous!!!
Superb organization...
The Porsche Team working hard to get everyone registered, here we see people from Porsche de Mexico, Porsche Latinamerica and Porsche Club Worldwide Coordination... now that's a TEAM!!!
Classic 911's were lined up on a gradient adjacent to the main parking... they look magnificent!!!
997's flocked the event in great numbers... superb!!!
One is not like the others... yep that would be my 986 parked with the 993's... thankfully Porsche de Mexico let me move from one group to the other to capture the most out of the event, and it worked!!!
Here I go following the long trail of Porsches... fun, fun fun!!!
The Porsche Parade Mexico 2008 was without a doubt the very best Porsche event ever in Latiamerica. Superb organization, large variety of Porsches and great enthusiasm made of this event the best Parade to date.


We hope to see you next year...
