Inside it was all about the new Carrera, but there was a Panamera a the entrance.

Whenever Porsche folks get together there is always socializing.

Before the unveiling, we had time to look over the raffle prizes.

With prizes donated by both the Asheville Art Museum and Porsche Asheville, there was plenty of incentive for brisk ticket sales.

Pam Myers, Director of the Asheville Art Museum, welcomed everybody just before the unveiling.

As did Scott Wilkerson, the owner of Porsche Asheville.

Ron Klahr and Don Oakes handled the unveiling of the Carrera coupe.

The cabriolet had lots of attention.

Both outside and inside.

The buffet was lavish, even by Porsche Asheville's high standards.

As was the bar.

Care was taken to insure an impartial drawing.

Although sometimes it took a while for a winner to work through the crowd to Charlie Schieren, our master of ceremonies.
