Love the color. Love the way they purr along at 3000 rpm. You won't regret taking the plunge. Enjoy it in good health.

Hi Seth,
Wow, nice color, It warms my heart knowing that there is another Speed Yellow Carrera running around Virginny other than mine. I'm located in Richmond, what part of the state do you hail from?

Congrats, Seth! That SY is stunning. Always love a good 1st 993 story.

Saw that you had a double USB poking out of the lighter socket. Did you buy one that fit or rig a tape around to steady it?

It was one I borrowed from my cousin. It fit but was slightly on the loose side.

Welcome to the insanity here. Congrats on the car especially SY, that was a special order color in 97-98. So not many made. I have your dopppelganger and never tire of staring at it in the garage.
