My new Riviera Blue coupe:
Picked it up a couple of weeks ago and thought I'd post a couple of pictures.
Thanks to those of you with feedback last month while I went through the process. PPI came up strong...
I still love driving my 95 (Aventurine) Cab, but am just amazed at the difference in the rigidity and handling of this car. A whole different experience!

The car was consigned at a BMW tuning specialist in a small town near me and sat there for a couple of months... 45Kmi. The area isn't really Porsche country, only a handful of people would see it over and over based on the traffic.
It had these garish, huge, clashing yellow number stickers with the price on the windshield, which almost drove ME away, and had 17" cups on it, which really didn't do much for the car.
The guy (who I've come to trust over the years) who runs the shop consigning said, you know, that would look great the right wheels. I never paid attention to wheels, but I stumbled on a set of sport classic II 18"s on Craigslist including new ContiSports (not my first tire choice, but basically free) Immediately the whole look and feel was right.
I had it up at Lime Rock last weekend for the PCA event (attended, not tracked) and had quite a few unsolicited inquiries/offers on it.
There also Riviera Blue track car there which had whacked into a wall earlier in the day. Wiped out the whole right side... bummer.
Thanks for the props. It's been a lot of fun already.
