Default Another new owner !

After a long hunt, I made the plunge and picked up my first Porsche.....
'92 Carrera 2 !
Flew from the OC on Wed. The owner met me at the airport in Santa Rosa with the car. 2 hours later I was on the road south. 200 miles to my hotel in Carmel ( I know a great Pub there and had to stop in ).
Thursday morning, south again 350 miles back to the OC.
Car ran perfect, AC perfect and the trip was a joy.
Already starting my list.........
Tires are 7 years old and very hard.

Wouldn't by chance be the "Hog's Breath Inn" ?

Congrats with your new purchase, Beautiful car.

So you pulled the trigger. Nice one! Is the car on stock suspension? It's sitting nicely. Congrats and enjoy!
