My first post. After decades of lusting after 911’s I finally own one. 2014 911S, white w/gray lthr, $20k in options, 22k miles, CPO til next year, clean car fax, complete service history at one P dealer and absolutely immaculate. The right one and about 10% below market. Bought it from a really nice guy in Mn. at the end of August and drove home over 3 days to Scottsdale. What a ball that was. Really appreciate Rennlist. I have learned so much about the car over these past 3 months and look forward to how much more I can learn. I’m a retired auto dealer and after many years I became quite jaded about cars in general. Well that’s over, this car absolutely blows me away. Even my wife is crazy about it. It has exceeded all of our expectations. I never believed a car could excite me as this has. Very difficult to stay out of it.

Sweet 911!
Now you need to join PCA for some added fun, if you have not already.

Welcome, but beware as these cars are intoxicating beyond anything I've experienced. Enjoy your car and congratulations on both retirement and your car. Many happy miles and years!!!!

Found it on Autotrader.com. However, we searched CarGurus (very good site), Carfax, cars.com, Edmonds, and countless Porsche dealers all over the country. Really wanted to buy from private party because in Az no sales tax on purchase from private party, even from another state. Tax here is 8.6%. $6000 savings!

White exterior and grey leather are a smart color combo for Hotzonna.

Congratulations and welcome to the 911!

Mine is also white with Agate Grey interior, helps with the Florida sun. Your ride home sounded quite fun.

Best of luck.

Warm welcome from Tampa. Great to have you aboard! Ditto on joining PCA. My experience has been overwhelmingly positive with all the folks I have met.
