I assume he's talking about the Amazon Green GTS that was just purchased by another Rennlister.

I think you made a good decision going with the black...obviously I would feel this way, as I have a black GTS.

The car is stunning, and you made the right choice on the color IMHO.

That dealer has some excellent cars--love the '49 caddy hotrod! Reminds me of ZZ Top's CadZilla.

Again, great car and wlecome aboard.
I have already heard a few comments about making sure I clean the seats real well before I sit in them.

Thanks! It's funny you mention running it :-)
Every Porsche guy I know says Porsches like and need to be run to run there best. I actually felt it getting smoother just in the first couple of short drives.

...and perhaps a hepatitis vaccine! Or, just wear latex whenever you're driving around town!

Good one! But I think the latex wearing may have already been done when Charlie had it. Nothing a little Fabreez won't take care of.

Didn't one of the owners have the seats reupholstered?

Yes that is correct. The 2nd owner did front seats along with the carpet. Looks almost new. I saw a few older pics in 928registry of the original interior and it looks like it may have had black piping but the back seats are supposed to be original and they don't have the black piping??
