Spent this past Saturday at Firemen's Park down in Niagara Falls for the 2021 PCA Upper Canada Region's "Concours d'Elegance" event. Was a great even with lots of nice Porsche of all varieties. The only ones what didn't show up were the 968s, Macans, Panameras, and Taycans.

I didn't enter the concours to win at all seeing my car has a bunch of dings, bumps, scrapes, and scratches, but surprisingly came in 3rd place for the 986 Boxster class! Edit: I should mention that this year's concours was based on peer judging with ballots; Anyone who officially entered the concours was given a ballot to vote for their favourite car per class. There were only 5 other classes (i.e. best of show etc.) that were officially judged.

Yes good eye. I actually did not know that existed either. Some seriously rare cars in the group. Next to the S15 Varietta is actually a S201... That is actually more rare than a 22B... My first time seeing one in real. Crazy body kit (but supposed to be functional) out of the factory... but silly sized 90s spec oem wheels and suspension

That the same S201 as in the MensClub Auto youtube channel?


Man I remember picking this in Battle Gear 2 at the UBC SUB when they still had the arcade in the basement.

It may not be the same. There are a handful of these apparently in HK. I noticed this one is missing the oem sticker on the hood vs that 2016 video. Also cars that are not registered (not paid import tax in HK yet), besides saving on tax, are usually so they can be flipped or sold outside of HK eventually.

Parked up the slope for the group shot. I was probably the only car there that could rather easily.


Turned out as an opportunity for some epic framed shots. The rails matched perfectly with my Beat!

^Dunno why, but I find these daily beaters are the most fun to drive. No fucks given, just rip it every chance possible and they are built like a tank. I had a POS sentra last year, (what are speed bumps, just plow through that shiet lol).

Not driving around with your ass partially puckered all the time is definitely a luxurious feeling

Congrats! I was just drooling over the 22 GR 3.0 on Craigslist this morning. I think it is the same one. In today's market it sure seems like a good buy!
