Great story, John. Thanks for sharing!

Like you, I think for many of us it all started with our fathers' love of cars. The apple usually doesn't fall far from the tree.

Enjoy your R. Great choice!

Congratulations, John. Cool and clean looking R. You truly are a car guy! I am sure you will make the R even better with Fabspeed goodies.

Thanks! Growing on me every day

Much appreciated! I'll be sure to post up some updates as things progress

Pete I am sure you have some stories that put mine to shame haha. When are you going to swap engines with me?

Thanks Donn! Its be a wet and sideways week so far, having a blast

It is going to great, I am beyond excited! Thanks for the kind words

John@Fabspeed

I thought it was until i'm looking at yours...my god that thing is gorgeous! What is the official color name?

Hey to each their own, and am glad you find the perfect car for you! If your name is accurate, thank you very much for your service. You deserve your Porsche more than anyone I have met so far

Thanks! I'll take that luck and not ball it up on the track this year haha

Thanks Jean!

Much appreciated, and it was a pleasure putting in the time to do so

Thanks Phil! Calling you has been on my to-do list so lets make that happen ASAP

Hey John,

Big congrats, 987 series, yeah definitely amazing steering feel though nothing beats a non power steering air cooled Carrera imho. The 987 Cayman has that real curvy 246 Dino like thing going on and the R is definitely the hot setup. Very few made, I think a future classic.

I'm not familiar with the exhaust note on the R but if it's anything like the standard Porsche setup I would highly recommend you look into the fabspeed exhaust and headers. On my 981S it was transformative. Really helped take a great car to the next level. And the folks at Fabspeed are very customer centric too. You won't be dissapointed

Seriously though, enjoy it Good to have you as a fellow Porsche owner

Thanks Steve! Thats very kind of you to say, and next year when I head down for Rolex 24 we should meet up

That is what i keep hearing and so far I am in agreement. Save for maybe the GT4 it is my favorite Porsche to date

Oh I am, even in the wet all week it is predictable and fun to whip the back end out haha

Thank you Henry! Very nice Spyder btw, love the color! First thing to go on are our headers, they make the biggest difference on these cars I have found.

Agreed! The steering feel is just superb, and the rotation is so spot on at the limit.

Starting to feel like the Joker haha

You know, now that you mention it one of these days in the near future I'll have a heart to heart with him to let him know how influential he has been. i also need to find that Klaus fellow from Street Survival, what a guy haha.

Thanks so much, and it all started with driving our Spyder that you seem to have a spitting imagine of haha. Superb car!

Hahaha nicely done Steve, you can bet i'll be throwing some stuff on it shortly with the Fabspeed boys Looking forward to working with you on the Spyder!

Also good call on the air cooled 911s and the Dino look. I never thought about it that way but you are spot on. We will have to get together this season and go cruise about or hit a track day
