Car looks good Crazy, now I know why you bought a soft top....just the anticipation of a 'warm' sun.

That is not a carpet. Rather an oversized diaper to catch the seeping, leaking and sweating oil.

"blizzard tomorrow!"

That's one reason we moved from ME to NC three years ago!

Shoot, I'm gonna drive one of my Porsches down to the boat Saturday. I'll think of you for a moment.

Car looks great Tim.
Does your car have limited slip?
I'm curious to hear how it behaves in the snow for you.

Thanks. Yes it does have limited slip and the car will behave superbly because it will be looking at the snow storm from the windows of it's 60 degree home!

Beautiful car and scenery. I, along with others, have waited to see these pics after the long drive home, only to become shoeless, then get the non water bath.

As a FYI - that car could NEVER be parked like that in a California Garage.

One little 4.0 shaker, and your car would instantly become a dartboard for that ladder, musket, buckets, stroller, lawn chairs and everything else not double pinned to the wall.

I don't get Ed's comment. It will be freezing out on the boat...Forecast is for low 70's through the weeked.

Looks great... you really have it cleaned up nice! Nice setting for the lakeside photo too!

Did the new tires make a difference in how the car rode?

What,....You didnt put the top down?? I am in central Pa. and my car has been away for a month now. I had my Targa top off for my last ride of the season. It was 40 degrees but the 911 has a blast furnace heater so I didnt mind. What tires did you go for??
