Congradulations! I am glad to see that worked for you. Really a nice looking car. I am so envious. Enjoy it!

JEFF!

I thought you passed on the car? Anyway, congrats my man, the car looks great! Don't let SF's finest see you driving down a sidewalk- they'll give you a ticket for sure. Some guy I knew back in the day had to do the same thing with his VW bug and he got cited. As far as speed bumps- good luck. Your car looks laid man, on the floor. My car isn't that low but I do have an e36 that sits on the floor. I try not to scrape so I do go at an angle up anything, but in our city you can't always win. DO NOT take that car into the 5th and Mission garage- the exits are way too steep.

I bet you're at home right now staring at that 993. Cute kid too, btw.


See you around town.

I think that's what I'll do. Greg offered me the original springs but it seems that those springs with 88,000 miles are probably fatigued??? Suspension experts?

I see so many 993s here that I know it's doable, however, not all of those have been lowered...

Thanks for all the compliments! I can't wait to get some paperwork in it!

Yep! My office is on the other side of the square from Kokkari & MacArthur Park restaurants (the actual park is Sydney G. Walton Square, I've always called it MacArthur Park though, until I worked down there...)

It looked big, mean, and American... I was too involved with both my babies to ask, but these guys were busy! Prior to coming to delivery, they were in Redding, then Bezerkeley picking up a Ferrari, then off to Mill Valley to pick/drop off something else! I didn't know there were so many car tranactions via transport happening!

Great looking car. . . and daughter! Intercity picked up my '70E Targa when I sold it a few years ago. Absolutely great staff.

Enjoy the car and be sure to post more pictures as you setting in with her.

your pics helped me to decide on intercity over some of the others. it sounds like an overwhelming favorite amongst car enthusiasts.

curiously enough, i flew down to SF just this past friday and was going to drive my '02 C4S to Seattle on Sunday. While on HWY 1, the power steering went out and I the car towed to Sonnen Porsche spendidly botching my drive plans.

i sit here in downtown SF at my friend's condo waiting for a flight back. intercity is picking up the 911 later this week or early next for late next week delivery.

over the weekend, i had a chance to drive around downtown SF. my car is lowered on pss9s with the factory aerokit. except on pretty much flat driveways, i scrape the front lip.

ahh the vicissitudes of vanity! congrats, sir. SF is an amazingly beautiful city, but the roads are horrid compared to seattle! those hills are killer, too, though we have some as well.

I recommend picking it if you can. One of the best drives is a long one in your new car. In my case Tulsa to West Palm Beach. Loved it.
