Default FINALLY got my '96 C4 Cab!!!

Hi All,

Well, after waiting 5 WEEKS for an international wire transfer from the UK, I was able to take delivery of my Black 1996 Carrera 4 Cabriolet on Tuesday.

My wife and I also passed our CA driving tests yesterday - me with 8 errors, her with only 2

Thanks to all who offered advice and encouragement on the PPI/purchase process/etc etc etc.

Cheers,

Pat

View from behind...

Don Wise at CT Automotive in Campbell did the PPI and pronounced it a 'nice one'.

Pat - usually it'll be posted here. However, you need to subscribe to Yahoo groups - Bay Area Rennlist. Once you do that, all emails from Rennlisters on BAR will be forwarded to you. So that's where we determine when and where we do the drives. I'm not sure how to sign up. I'm sure one of the other guys knows.

Technically, it's welcome back to team 993 - I had a 1995 Iris Blue C2 Coupe in the UK, before I moved out to CA. Before that a 1980 Metallic Sky Blue 911 SC.

Cheers,

Pat

Congrats Pat, and WELCOME to the 1996 C4 Cab club. We're an exclusive bunch and glad you're with us. What colors and options do you have? LET'S HEAR MORE! If you haven't already, look at the option list (on the front trunk lid underside) and check out the list of options that's online somewhere. (sorry don't have the url but it's posted here all the time so a search will find it) I learned some interesting stuff about my car that way.
