Hello everyone,
I have been a lurker here for a while so I thought I would introduce myself. I am a Santa Cruz CA resident and I have been a Porsche lover since childhood as my father had several p-cars while I was growing up in the 1970s.
I was fortunate to pick up my first Porsche, a used 997S in 2010. I enjoyed that car greatly for four years. Last year I got the itch for something new so I picked up my current ride: 2014 C2S, black on black, SC, PSE, PDK, BOSE, PP+. First mod was a set of Techart springs. Recently I just purchased a new set of HRE P40SC in satin bronze and I am loving the new look.















Looking forward to participating more on rennlist as well as Rennsport in September.
Cheers,
Dave

Great car! I'm a big fan of the bronze HRE wheels. Is it me or does that bike look awfully close to tipping over on your car??? Yikes!!!

Very nice 991. The wheels really change from light to dark. Great additional either way. Enjoy.

Congrats on your beautiful car. Love the wheels, and I never would have thought to do bronze wheels on a black car, but they really seem to work on yours. Enjoy it!

Thanks everyone, I'm stoked on the 991 I sure appreciate some of the creature comforts the car has to offer. My 997 seem to be lacking in that department. While I must admit I sometimes miss the manual, the pdk is pretty sweet, especially with the paddle shifters.
