First Impressions
Well I got her registered this morning, and plates.
A little cold here in NJ, 32 degrees. I don't think she is use to the cold weather.
Started up fine, took her slowly around town to get comfy and familiar -
1. squeaks and rattles - need to tighten things up, plus cold could have contributed
2. throttle response very nice, and the sound - amazing
Took her on the highway, (valentine is in for repair) had to take it easy a bit.
Car pulls to 80 extremely fast. Need to have the alignment checked and the wheels and tires balanced.
It has been awhile since I have driven a 993, my initial first impression was damn this thing has some power. A little surprised on how rough the ride is, but I have to remember it is cold here and takes time to warm up shocks.
I take her for NJ State Insp. on Wed (private) for emissions and such, hopefully she passes. Then on Friday she is going in for an oil change and a thorough look over.
Until then, I need to give her some TLC, a thorough cleaning, starting with the interior, and then to the outside.
