Love the blue color, nice combo. And Targa are the perfect combo or convertible/coupe. Sorry I am a MT to PDK convert though.

Thanks all- I am truly a lucky guy.
My labradoodle is a big P car fan and has ridden in my cab before and loves it.

Yup; you have the best of both worlds with the classic and new! I have been looking for a clean well sorted out 80's car for some time now.

Such a fine looking car! The 7MT in the GTS is truly sublime. You won't be disappointed with it! Congrats and enjoy her!

Gorgeous car, gorgeous color, and it's a manual targa GTS. What a perfect combination. Congratulations!

Your dog seems to like it, too.

Congrats my friend! Now we both have to change our avatars. Hope you didn't mind the dirty Carmine coupe parked next to your beauty today

Only fitting as it was your stunning Carmine Red GTS coupe that inspired me to pull the trigger on the last NA 911.

Did you have the rear window tinted darker than factory or is it just the way the photo was taken? If you had it tinted did they have any issues making it seamless?

Congrats! That is a great looking build. It looks like you have the climate for lots of top down driving.

I had the sides and rear windows tinted the same at 30% I believe.
Probably will get the front and sides of car covered with suntek or Xpel or similar.

All- Thanks again for the well wishes.
It's taking a lot of will power to hold back during the break in process. Looking forward to doing some track time this spring!
