Nice supple leather seats (I didn't get those), white gauges (didn't get those either) but what is that black box where the passenger left leg would be?
Cool to get some extra goodies with your car, and personally, I would never buy a car with beige interior because it shows the dirt much easier than black.
Way to go! More exterior pics maybe?

Remote right now and will post more exterior pics tomorrow. However, the black box in the passenger compartment is an after market cup holder from, I think, Porsche but not sure.

Exterior Pics
Here are some more pics. I did take them yesterday, just didn't get time to post.
On a side note. I officially registered the vehicle today and stopped by the local Porsche dealer to find out where I can get my blank key cut. As I walked up to the dealer one of the salesmen made some nice comments about my vehicle. But he said "sweet" about 3 times and walked over to take a look at it. I was parked by some new models, but felt mine still looked the best. Though the new ones are not bad at all.
Also experienced my first wave. I was headed one way while a 996 Turbo was heading the opposite way. I got a wave of acknowledgment. I, of course, waved back. I thought that was pretty cool. I was speaking with a friend on the phone and he was wondering why I chuckled. I explained and then he said he was going to start waving to fellow drivers who drove his car. He will be busy as he has a Honda Accord.
Anyway...few more pictures.

I have the same experience when I go to the Porsche dealer. Invariably a salesman comes outside and says "nice car" as he walks all around it and then adds "very clean", to which, I just smile and say "thanks". He of course, has made my day.
I had a picture of an Arena Red C4 taped to my desktop computer monitor for 1 year before I bought my 96 993. I never did find one in Arena Red with a black interior. I only wanted black interior and they were hard to find. I settled on a silver car and am happy, but when I see your pics, it reminds me of my first year of wondering if I'd ever find the right car. In the end, I did find the right car after all, for me.
Congrats again. Excellent pics!
