Default New to me 991.1
Just traded in my 2011 997.2 c2 cab, which was a dedicated weekend car, for this 2015 Carrara white metallic coupe that I'll use as my DD. I'll miss the 997.2 but for my purposes the new car is better in every way. The car is lightly optioned, but came with everything I need in a DD--Bose sound, 14-way seats, parking assist with backup camera. Of course I had to instantly change out the side markers for the clear LEDs and add the color coded headlight washers from Bumper Plugs. I watched this forum closely while I was looking at my options--so thank you all for the knowledge
gained here.

Very nice. I like your paver driveway. You also get bonus points for good spelling.

EXCELLENT choice. I think that WHITE is the best color for the 911, even though I ordered Rhodium Silver on my GTS. I had white on my previous 911, which was a 997 C4S.

Yes sir. One of the most misspelled words in the Porsche lexicon.

I'm all for chastising those who mistakenly spell it Carrera, but complimenting those who get it right - I like it
