Congratulations. I bought my first Porsche at 18. Got a loan from Chase and bought a 1981 930 Turbo. Still remember the day I picked it up. Destroyed the clutch the first week. Fast forward, I now have 4 Slantnose Turbos and a Carrera GT in my garage and still looking for more. Worst than any drug but as a wise man once said, 40 wheels are cheaper than 4 legs.

Congratulations on your beautiful apex machine. Enjoy those SD East County roads. I really miss living there. Streetlegal, you can finally upload an avatar (pic of your TTS). That was a proud day for me.

Beautiful specimen and going to be tough to beat in the future (might as well put a deposit on a GT2-RS now lol). Amazing garage and well diversified. Looks like a performante in back? Is it wrapped?

Well, sir, you are correct. Thank you for the gentle nudge. You can now see what I look like...

And, not to make you feel bad, but your comment has "spoiled" my favorite photo that I *was* gonna use for my avatar. Now anybody that looks at the photo will think *those* are my cars too. So, gonna stick with the photo you see now, until I take a better one.
And Pad Bender won't let me keep any of my photos live with the FAL all the way up like that either...

So, opinions please: My wife and SA ganged up on me and overruled my instinct to get the PCCBs in high gloss black. So, was the yellow a "mistake" given my color combos?

Congrats, looks great, even in that cramped back area of Hoehn Porsche.
See you in the twistys of SD!

You asked for it lol. I agree with the better half. Yellow calipers in the Porsche world means you have the best brakes. Since you have the ultimate 911 in the non RS world, I would wear them with pride. I will 
As for as the picture, I don't feel bad as I probably saved you future questions about your avatar.

Congrats, it’s a beauty. Porsche Carlsbad (picked up my Agate TTS there in late January) and AutoArmour (had my PPF, ceramic coating, tint and clearplex done there too) are both easily recognizable in your photos. I live in Encinitas, hope to see you around soon.
