I'm making a trip to SW tomorrow if your around stop by for a show & tell!
damn, you should have come down today.
manana, i work.... ugh...

The poll shouldn't be how many(thats IMPOSSIBLE), but WHAT STORY he told his WIFE about the car:

a."Its the old car new decals"

b."Its the old car with new tires"

c."Its not mine just on loan while the 993 GT2 gets new decals"

d. "Its my secretary's, she cant drive a stick so I am showing her" to which SHE said "What secretary you've been working at home for 18 years, and where did you get the new watch?"

Congrats on the new 4.0, very nice with no decals and by far the best colour!!
Also very sorry to hear about the stripper, I hate it when they fall off the stage...
ah, I mean leave the track.

Cheers,
Geoff

John, beautiful spec. Exactly how I would have ordered it: steel brakes, decal delete. Congratulations.

As for you getting the allocation, I consider it Rennlist Karma. Just don't call up Schneider-Nelson for the 991 GT3/RS before me.
