Another Newbie and new 993 tonight

Hi everyone,

Here is my first 993. Thanks to all of you and the wealth of information on this forum, I have taken the plunge. Bring on the slippery slope!

1997 with 16k miles. Ocean Blue with Classic gray leather. 6 speed.

I like to use this little program www.irfanview.com to resize pics, etc.

I was hoping to get a bigger picture uploaded.

greageast - I was using the irfanview and resized to stay under the limit of 149kb, but it makes the picture so small. What am I doing wrong?

Looks like it's sitting higher than the normal SUV height?

Hmmm. Maybe not...

No snow on the ground in Michigan? Get out and enjoy it while you still can.

Great look car (looks a lot like mine, but I'm not biased). Where did you buy it?

Congrats. That's a good looking ride. 1997 with only 16K on it is almost broken in. Enjoy putting some miles on her.

Olav A - do you think it looks abnormally high? After seeing Jeff's (IntheAir) car, I know I could benefit from a good suspension upgrade.

jnnking - just got the snow in the last week or so. I found it out east.

Arm993 - Thanks, I'm looking forward to the spring. Have to decide what mods I want to do over the winter. I'm thinking suspension, tires, RSR's, and maybe HID's. That should keep me busy.
