Default New To Me - 991 C2S in Dark Blue Metallic

I owe STG a post here showing off the trip I took with my son out east to pick up a new to me '12 C2S. Thanks to the HFS thread I was able to educate myself enough about pricing and features of the 991's to make an informed cross country deal with a minimum of fuss.

My son and I flew out early Sunday morning to Harrisburg PA and spent the day at Hershey park with our rental fiat





Then we made it to the dealer who had the car ready and detailed for pickup. A long test drive later we did the paperwork and started home.





On the way home I didn't see many P cars but I did have a few hours of fun with a stingray I met along the way.





We made it home safe aside from an annoying rock chip in the freshly painted hood





It's been a blast getting the car dirty and driving it daily, of the rain stops this weekend I can get to work getting the swirls out of the clear coat...




But most importantly my suncoast box got here today and I think I've officially joined the club, right?





Thanks to everybody here for the advice, rennchecks, referrals and general moral support. It helped me a great deal in moving up to an amazing ride.

P.S. Here is the build sheet for those that were asking

Nice job on the first modification. My LEDs took a whole week to arrive from Sun Coast. Was driving me crazy looking at those old side indicator. Now one month later, I've done PSE, Carbon Fiber Interior, New Lloyds front and rear mats, frunk box, all under a nice new porsche interior car cover. Have fun!!

Beautiful car and congrats. Were you able to do some of the PA backroads? I have a house up in the North Central part that I visit about once a month. I always love my drives up there.

Congrats...looks great. Am sure you'll be visiting Suncoast Porsche's website much more often. One often gets ideas there that must be fulfilled in some way! LOL
