Congratulations on getting such a clean car, the white color definitly suits the 928 very well and i'm really digging the interior color.

You're hooked now! Better go to a few 12 step meetings over at Roger's place... there is no cure for the 928 addiction, only regular fixes!
Very nice.

Very nice.

Like Heinrich, I too like the sheepskins and had them on a former Benz, but just haven't seen fit to put them on my 928.

Congrats!

Regards,
David

Looks great!
Sounds like you had a great trip home.

I'll bet that your car looks cleaner after two weeks than mine does after two days...

I saw the car yesterday in the flesh and it is immaculate.
I saw Ed again today while driving locally.
Great car Ed - you deserve each other

Thanks Roger. I couldn't resist coming home at noon today to pick up the 928...err....let the dog out.

I'm really obsessing over this car-can't stop looking at it when I get out after parking. Love the feel of the drive. The power. The smoothness. My wife got to drive it yesterday, and I think she loves it too. She's only driven the 911 once for about 2 blocks, she drove the Shark for about 15 minutes.

I've got to repair the 911's exhaust leak so I can drive it for a contrast. I lust after it too.

Ain't life grand?

Congratulations Ed! Glad to hear you had a safe trip home. Quite a drive, but in the 928, seems fairly easy. Sorry to lose such a nice 928 from AZ, but as long as it's going to TX, I guess it's OK (from there originally )
