Default Look what I get tomorrow
I'm off to pick up my very first Porsche. It is a 1997 C2S, Arena Red/Black with 25,000 miles. I live in Vancouver, BC and am flying to Victoria BC to get the car then bring it home on the ferry. I've already picked up a set of 18 inch Turbo Twist wheels from a fellow Porsche nut and will have them put on right away. I don't know how much sleep I will get tonight but I can tell you I have been dreaming about getting a 993 for as long as I can remember.
When I get the car home and can take more pictures I'll fill you in on the amazing story behind me getting this car.

it won't be the last time you lose sleep over the car.
(here I am at Midnight on Rennlist, for instance!)

Congrats and Good luck!

Nice looking car. Looks like you've got the ride height nailed already as she's got a nice stance. Enjoy and congrats.
