I also intend to daily it, and I think that there are many here who do too.

One of the primary attractions to the car is that it is a comfortable all-weather "automatic". I got mine with the adaptive cruise to make traffic less stressful too.

I expect 7-9k a year on my car. Some day, in many years, I'll have to discount it over the inevitable low-mileage cars, but there are always buyers of well-maintained 911 turbos of any mileage.

I am having the whole car done in Xpel Utimate this coming week to prolong the condition of the paint.

Thanks for all the warm welcomes!

Here is a quick pic just to prove it really happened. Also, did get Xpel installed over the weekend along with the most important upgrade: clear side markers

Looks great! Did you expel the whole car?

No, the most important upgrade are these anti-buffeting wings. Try driving at >60 mph with the roof closed and the windows open and you'll see what I mean. Beautiful car! http://www.blackmillperformance.com

Congratulations! Lovely car!

I also DD my 991TT, and intend to continue to do so - although my commute is a bit shorter than yours. I'm not looking forward to putting winter tires on though (I live further north so summers all year round is not going to cut it).
