good for you - the carrera will make the 928 feel like a pontiac - the 928 is a great car dont get me wrong - but definitely feels large compared to the point and shoot 911.

At over 3000 lbs. and snow tires that cost half that much,she plowed through one hell of snowy canadian winter just fine.
I just hate the thought of her as a winter beater !

Love that color. Looks super clean from the pics, especially the wheels. I need to get some painted center caps.

Are those 8's or 9's in back?
