Ha! An appropriate topic for my 1,000th post.

Taking delivery at Salt Lake City 2 Airport last year, from fellow Rennlister, Will (designergenes):




Here is the write up I did on it:

Cool thread. I wish I'd thought of taking a pic when I picked up my 993 but I guess I was too excited. It was my first Porsche too.

Ah....I remember it well. I just pulled into the driveway after picking her up in Omaha and motoring home. My wife is in the background trying to figure out what she has gotten herself into.

I'll add to this later, but here's one of the first pics... From the San Pedro docks in the morning. It had just been shipped over from Kauai. I was sooooo happy to finally see it in the flesh!



The car was set up perfectly from the PO, so not much has changed except some stuff on the interior.

Arrival from the DFW area via Portland Oregon into Seattle, where it began to snow just after I drove the car home.

Default The Day I lost my Virginity

Funny you should mention first encounter: Last night, I was just looking at the pics of that day (2/09). Great thread. It is nice to see that I'm not the only one still remembering when I was a virgin!
