President’s message:
Well winter seems to have
given us a brief greeting and
will hopefully stay away for a
little while longer. I must say I
am not ready to winterize the
Boxster and tuck it away quite
yet. Although I did see a fair
bit of salt on some of the back
roads so I may have to rethink
things. Ever since my motor-
cycling days I’ve lived by the rule that when the salt hits
the road, the car gets tucked away.
Hopefully we’ll get some rain or something to wash the
roads so I can enjoy a few more days in the sun. October
seems to have slipped by quite fast and now we’re star-
ing down November. If things keep going quickly
enough it will be spring again.
In case you haven’t heard, the Board has decided that for
the safety of all members, we will not be holding a holi-
day party this year. I know it’s a bummer for a lot of us
who look forward to everyone getting together for a fun
time but with the way things are looking now, it is best
to not push things and risk our health. Hopefully 2021
will bring better news and lots of fun activities.
One activity you can put on your calendar will be the
2021 Fall Treffen at the American Club in Kohler. You
will hear us talking a lot about this national event that
is being co-hosted by the Fox Valley and Milwaukee
Regions.
Both regions are working very hard on making this
event a top notch Treffen but we will need help when
the time comes. Events like this take a lot of volunteers
and there are many spots where you can help out.
More information on areas where help is needed and
the various time commitments will be coming out early
next year so if you have any desire to help out even for
a short time contact Todd Benz and he’ll be happy to
add your name to the volunteer list!
Until next month, stay safe and stay healthy!

Fox Valley Region Porsche Club of America

Editor’s note: Always thankful for reader input
This is the season where we focus on being thankful. As the editor of this monthly newsletter, I
am always thankful for the input, especially photos, that you send. This year it has been more
difficult to come up with material since we haven’t had many events to cover.
This issue reflects member input. Thanks to Keary Kautzer for the cover photo and Todd and
Justin Benz for the back cover photo. I sure could use your photos for the December issue. Re-
member to think vertical—turn that camera to take a portrait (vertically oriented image) and it
could be on the cover or featured as photo of the month.
Do read the statements of the region officer candidates. You will receive an email with a ballot for your votes. Even
though these members are running unopposed, your vote conveys your confidence in their leadership.

J D Power says Porsche is no. 1 in customer experi-ence with new vehicles for the second year in a row
U.S. custom-
ers have rat-
ed Porsche
highest
among all
automotive
brands in the
J.D. Power
2020 U.S.
Automotive
Performance,
Execution
and Layout
(APEAL) Study. It was the second year in a row that Por-
sche took the top position in the annual study of customer
experience with owning and driving a new vehicle.
Klaus Zellmer, president and CEO of Porsche Cars North
America, Inc., said: “Porsche believes in continuous im-
provement and winning the top spot again just encourages
us to find new ways to delight our drivers.”
The 2020 U.S. Automotive Performance, Execution and
Layout Study measures owners’ emotional attachment and
level of excitement with their new vehicle across 37 attrib-
utes, ranging from the sense of comfort and luxury on
climbing into the driver’s seat to the power they feel
when they step on the gas. These attributes combine into
an overall APEAL index score measured on a 1,000-point
scale.
Porsche earned 881 points on the 1,000-point scale, com-
pared to the premium brand average of 861. The study is
based on responses gathered from February through
May of this year from more than 87,000 purchasers and
lessees of new 2020 model-year vehicles who were sur-
veyed after 90 days of ownership.

First positive quarter of 2020 reflects ongoing recovery from pandemic impact
Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (PCNA) announced Oct. 1 that third quarter U.S. retail deliveries rose 5.0 percent
from the same period a year ago, continuing a recovery trend from coronavirus lockdowns in the first half of 2020.
Retail deliveries by the 192 independently owned and operated U.S. dealers totaled 15,548 from July through Septem-
ber.
The year-over-year increase in the quarter means that for the first nine months of 2020, sales were 11.8 percent below
the same period in 2019, which was a record year for PCNA deliveries. This marks an improvement from the end of
Q2, when sales for the first six months were down 20.1 percent year-over-year.
“The third quarter remained challenging for many people, so I am grateful to our customers for their enthusiasm and
to our dealers and their employees for the energy they continue to bring to Porsche,” said Joe Lawrence, executive vice
president and chief operating officer of PCNA. “We’ve never had such an exciting lineup in U.S. showrooms – with
demand for the new all-electric Taycan growing to the point that it was our third best-selling model line this quarter,
just behind the Macan and Cayenne. Our thrilling cars and the legendary customer experience provided by Porsche
dealers are contributing to an ongoing recovery.”
Porsche Approved Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) sales in the U.S. totaled 7,661 vehicles from July through September,
up 26.4 percent year-over-year.

The region extends its special thanks to past president and
outgoing vice president Todd Benz who has served in a
leadership position with the board for the past seven years.
Todd is moving up to serve as the PCA national secretary.
Jim Janes, who has served as treasurer for many years is
also stepping down. We thank him for his service as well.
Region members will receive an email in November with a
ballot to elect region officers for 2021. The ballot will in-
clude these candidates.
Shaun Stamnes is running for the position of President. He
has been a PCA member since
2013 “after I realized my lifelong
dream of owning my own Por-
sche.
“I have been a passionate sup-
porter, (i.e. obsessed), with Por-
sche for as long as I can remem-
ber. When I learned about PCA
in the early 80’s I had hoped to
become a member someday if I
was ever lucky enough to own a
Porsche.
“At first I was planning on just being a ‘magazine member.’
However after attending our first region function Dee and I
were hooked. The friendships we have made not just in the
region but from other regions are amazing. On top of that
the technical knowledge and helpfulness of the members is
something that cannot be overstated.
Todd Whitenack is running
for vice president of the Fox
Valley region board. He has
been a PCA member since
January 2019
“There a number of reasons
for being a member: the ob-
vious one is of course is
sharing an interest in both
the old and new Porsches
with people of like mind. Another reason is the events; San-
dra and I like to drive our car a lot and the club provides
additional opportunities for us to do that.
“My interest in Porsches started in the early 1980s while I
was working at a car stereo store which was across the
street from the local Porsche dealer. While installing stereos
Meet the board candidates in Honda Accords and Toyota Corollas I would watch
911 SCs and Turbos going out for test drives. On one of
my more confident days I ventured over there in my
home improved 1979 VW Scirocco. After a few minutes
of self-assuring banter with the sales person, I expressed
my desire to test drive the more modest 911 base car. I
was after all certain that I was ready for two more cylin-
ders. To set the scene just bit more, I was around 18
years of age and in spite of wearing my best shirt, it
turned out that sales person was not as convinced as I
that I needed to drive that car; perhaps it was the obvi-
ous lack of money, we just can’t be sure. Let’s just say I
never I got the keys to that 911 or even that used 914
parked out front.
“But there is a bright side, I got a new VW Jetta just a
couple years later when Sandra and I got married and
over the 30+ years of marriage I never lost thought of
that ‘82 911 SC. I may even still have that sales person’s
card. More recently our youngest child graduated from
college, and it was at that time I said, it’s time for some-
one to get a Porsche. So we purchased a 2000 Boxster for
my wife; face it she earned it more than me. Side note:
she said I get a Porsche too. So if anyone knows where I
can find an early ‘80s SC, I have my best shirt ready and
my wife let me have the check book. I will find that sales
person to do a drive by. Who is with me?”
Mary Haen is running for secretary. Mary and her hus-
band Jim have been mem-
bers since 1996. “It all started
in the mid-1980s while work-
ing timing and scoring at
Road America. I wanted to
know what that ‘cute little
car with the bug eyes’ was.
I'd been bitten by the Por-
sche bug and didn't know it
yet. It only took another 10
years to get our first one.
And she's tucked in for the winter under a cover in the
garage.
“I value PCA because someone, somewhere in the club,
is willing to share advice, tips and ideas that have work
for them over time. And the sharing and support isn't
just limited to cars.”

Erik Scharinger is running for
treasurer. “The time in PCA is
complicated. I allowed my
membership to lapse a few times
but I've been involved with PCA
Fox Valley since 1992. My offi-
cial join date is August 2014.
“I grew up surrounded by
cars. My father was a founding
member of the Kettle Moraine Corvette Club and grow-
ing up in Kansas in the ‘80s I attended the first races at
Heartland Park in Topeka while also spending sum-
mers in Sheboygan going to Road America.
In this era of IMSA prototype racing it was impossible
to miss the awesome 962 Porsche and as an Indy Car
fan, Porsche re-entered that arena in 1987.
“Also, sometime in the ‘80s my father turned his atten-
tion away from Corvettes to German cars (started with
an Audi, then Mercedes), and as they say, the rest is
history. He picked up a 1981 928 in 1992 and I found a
1987 944S to purchase in 1996. I still have both of these
cars.
“My passion for the marque has always been threefold
for the whole family: Porsche / Audi /
Volkswagen. You may find me showing up for an
event in a Scirocco or my Turbo S Beetle.
“Having lifelong friends in the Corvette club, my par-
ents knew the value of car club membership and
promptly joined Fox Valley PCA back in 1992 and we
attended the Door County weekend with PCA (I was
navigator riding shotgun with FVPCA President Jim
Stephenson). I moved away from the Fox Valley a few
times over the years and allowed my membership to
lapse, but I never lost contact with many friends within
the club. Porsche owners come from all walks of life
and I often marvel at all the great people I've met
thanks to PCA. I don't know how I would have met
them otherwise. From dinner runs, tech sessions, cars
& coffee, picnics etc.., this club does a great job putting
together events not just car related but any excuse we
can think of just to get together. My wife Lorelei and I
have made many lifelong friends with this club and try
to give back as much as possible. “

Tyler Hoffman took this photo of some of the Porsches that showed up for the last cars and coffee (a non-region event) in De Pere in the former Creamery, now called Toast & Co. Erik Scharinger also attended.

As you may know, the Milwaukee and Fox Valley PCA
regions will be hosting the 2021 PCA Fall Treffen at The
American Club in Kohler, Wis., from Oct. 13-17, 2021. This
is a tremendous honor and privilege to showcase what our
state has to offer to the rest of PCA.
We have formed a Treffen Planning team, made up of
members of both regions that will work with the PCA Na-
tional Treffen staff to help plan the event. Jim Janes, Fox
Valley Region Treasurer, is the Region Treffen Chair and I
am one of two volunteer recruiters. This event will require
many volunteers to create a five-star experience. A mini-
mum of approximately 50-60 volunteers will be needed
from our combined two regions. Many of you have already
contacted Shaun Stamnes or me with an offer to help and
we have documented those inquiries.
Treffen volunteers needed to achieve success Here are some of the areas where we will need volun-
teers. Time slots will be created based on the numbers of
volunteers.
• Registration (Wednesday)
• Information Desk (Wednesday-Saturday)
• Tour Departure Area (TBD)
• Tour Participation / Lead-Mid-Sweeps (Two days
TBD)
If you think you would like to volunteer in some capaci-
ty and have not contacted anyone, please reach out me
and I can provide additional information. I know Octo-
ber 2021 seems like a long way off, but it will go by fast
and we want you to be part of this exciting event.
In the November 1992 Whaletales, a story reported on a tour of Door County that also included a concours competition.
The winners of the concours were announced.
Jim Stephenson won the People’s choice award with his 356. Jeff Dreyfuss was the runner up with his white slantnose.
Fred Pesche took third place with a mint green slantnose. Fourth place went to editor Dave Hoern with his 1975 911S.
(Note: The editor at the time was not big on a lot of detail. No years given for the 356, the white slantnose and the mint
green slantnose.)
Of those noted above, Jim Stephenson has continued his membership throughout these 30 years. Thanks for staying
with us Jim.

Porsche owners are usually obsessive about the color
of their car. It’s not just “green,” but it is one of these
greens that Porsche painted onto its various models.

this color was used.

distinctive greens that were only available for one
model year, noted by * after the year

This past 6 months has been a challenge for all but as we learn to adapt we will get through this. There is not much to report with the exception of Treffen Fall 2021.
Treffen Update
Jim Janes is the Treffen Planning Chair. We have currently established the Treffen Planning Team and are having Zoom meetings to discuss the different driving, NDO and individual tours. Jim can provide more detail. As one of the volunteer leads I am working with Tony from the Milwaukee Region to recruit people. I will be sending out a email blast to our region members to see if they are interested in volunteering. We have about half of the total volunteers needed so far. Would be great if we had some events to recruit as well. This will be my last year serving on the Fox Valley Region PCA Board. It has been an amazing past 7 years serving on this board in many positions. I have met so many new people and created many friendships along the way. I will still be here to help and attend as many events as possible. Thank you for all that you have done to make this club yours.
Treasurer Report (Jim Janes)
We are solvent. Since our notes are published and made public, the Secretary and Editor will not publish these num-bers. Although we do not publish these figures, interested members can contact the treasurer for a copy of this re-port. We have received our Quarterly rebate from PCA National.

Review of Old Business
New board of directors mentoring opportunities/succession plan for board members if appropriate. Please con-sider getting involved. All current board members would be willing to assist in transitioning.
Event planning to include getting more members involved with hosting. Would like to see at least multiple events per month. Do we need to advertise more, if so how? Can we have every BOD member host at least one event? Sharing events between regions.

Classifieds FOR SALE: 2002 911 996 Cabriolet $28,500
911 996 Carrera Cabriolet 3.6 6-speed manual $28,500 39,600 miles Arctic Silver Metallic/Graphite Grey leather
This is a 2002 Porsche Carrera Cabriolet from a non-smoking family. It is decked out in Arctic Silver Metallic paint with
Graphite Grey leather seats and a black power top. The Bose AM/FM CD player with 6 disk CD changer sounds great.
There are dual power front seats with lumbar support and heat. Keyless entry, 18" wheels, Xenon headlights, flared
rocker panels, rear spoiler, clear bra and Porsche Crest embossed in the headrests makes this a beautiful car in beautiful
condition. Very clean inside and out. Stored during the winter and has not seen inclement weather. This car has been
serviced regularly with records to show. Regrettably the "silver bullet" doesn’t get much use now and needs a new
home.
For more info and photos contact: Wayne Slowinski 920-810-5148.
