Congrats on your purchase!
As you can see from my avatar, you bought it just in time to whip leaves off the road as you negociate some"tight" curves!
Enjoy!

Red - if I do get another Porsche, it will be a 997.

I don't think I need a TT, unless, of course, I win the lottery and money becomes ridiculously abundant. Then I'll have a 997 S, a 997 TT, a 997 GT3 and maybe a CGT.... and NO, I will NOT feel guilty about owning all of them at the same time!

I may be a bit biased, but I'm pretty sure that the 996 C4S is the best 996 every produced! Congrats on your new sled. Just wait till you see how that pup does in the snow! I drive mine year round...have a winter setup, the car is amazing in the powder.

Drive it safe (and fast when it's safe )

Wow....now I'm totally pumped beyond belief to get in the seat on Saturday! This will be a year round car, so snow tires/rims will be on the list soon. Bumperplugs already has shipped the clear sidemarkers and bulbs so that will be done on Saturday. Then that afternoon, I also plan on the DYI to remove the cutout on the PSE. The only other items on the drawing board right now are body colored rear bumperette covers and most likely a Kenwood DNX8120 with ipod, bluetooth, nav, etc.....
