Default FAVOR: Give me an awesome picture of your 964!

Hey guys!

I have wanted a 911 for as long as I can remember. As I get closer and closer, i've started doing little things for motivation.

My girlfriend got me a very nice "Porsche mouse" for my computer. I work at a desk 8 hours a day and it's a constant reminder of why i'm there.

My boss sent me a full page newspaper ad of a 911 that I keep on the wall of my other office so there's always something for me to look at!

Recently, i've decided to put the image of a 911 on my credit card, so every time I spend money I am reminded what it's taking away from.

BOTTOM LINE: Capital One will not let me use an image I do not own... and that's where I need help!

If any of you have a cool picture of your 964 I would love to use it on my card...

I know I could just browse images but the key is that i'd rather use a picture I have permission to use, and so would Capital One.

Thanks in advance!

Well I already have one card that has a White 991 Turbo on it, so I was hoping to get any color but white.

Preferably red or black but i'm open to almost anything

Better fess up - it is actually taken at a skid pan day - though in saying that it was raining.

It is true though - It was "The most fun you can have with your clothes on."

Enjoy!

That's how it starts! Years ago I remember sitting on my couch looking at a Porsche magazine, when it hit me, "why am I reading about these cars instead of living my dream?" I put the magazine down and started searching for my first 911 experience from that point on. What an awesome ride it's been so far.

...My girlfriend got me a very nice "Porsche mouse" for my computer.
It's smart that she knows what she in for now; it's not always easy living with a Porsche nut. Note the kid seat in the back, it's a family car. Remember that when you substitute "fiancée" for "girlfriend".

...Recently, i've decided to put the image of a 911 on my credit card...
I've thought about doing that too...

I've thought about doing that too...

Yes, we've been together for 5 years and at first she thought it was just a "fantasy" but she finally has accepted the reality of the situation.

It was great when I used my current card that I have a 991 turbo on for the first time... the guy noticed the card when I was buying a beer on an Amtrak ride once and he sort of glances over at me, back at the card, back at me, back at the card, and says "motivation?".

Part of me wanted to say "what you don't think I own a 200k sports car?!?!" but the rest of me was just happy he realized why I did it.

Thought I would update this thread now that the card came in. The card on the right i've had for awhile but the card on the left is obviously new using one of the pictures above.

Thanks for everyone's help with this!

PS. I am well aware I am no graphic artist so please be nice with my photo editing :P
