Congrats, Dan! Great color. That's just like Fernando's isn't it?

Anytime you're ready to cash in your kitchen pass, let me know. Can't wait to see it. Take care.

Congrats - looks great
Even though my wife said to go buy whatever I wanted, with the only provision that I hang onto it "for a long time" - she says I have car ADD since they generally last 2 years max... I went with GT3 over RS to save a little bit of $$ (trying to keep some peace on the Ponderosa). She wonders how a car that has such a bumpy ride could cost so much, I wonder if I could have used the RS as a daily driver! I may be able to pull the old swticheroo with a white RS - they all look the same! haha

I was about to write some smartass comment about how you can never make up your mind about what kind of car you want, but then I realized I'm just jealous Enjoy it, man. Looks like one bad ride.

Congratulations. Perfect time to buy a great car!

jimxyz,
You can daily drive an RS in SoCal as long as you don't have to go through many intersections with deep drainage dips.

Congratulations! Looks like a beautiful car. Don't forget the A-list of mods in this link when you have some mod money burning a hole in your wallet.

My buddy and I stopped by at BW to look at it today, but they told us it was sold already.

But we did get to hear your "old" GT3, that GMG exhaust sounds AWESOME!

Congrats on the RS.

thanks MD,
I pulled out of BW around 1:15 and yes my old car does sound very nice....

It still hasn't sunk in yet that it's mine...every time I've walked through the garage today I look over and laugh. I've owned some pretty cool cars before...but

The best car I have yet owned, and will probably keep for its life. Orange was not my first choice, but it has grown on me. Congratulations. If the car doesn't have the Sharkwerks bypass put it on your list.

I didn't know you bought the one from BW - Tracy was trying to get me to buy that one but I ended up getting the '10 GT3. Great car - I love my car but still think that one would have been a lot of fun too. Enjoy!
