Congratulations, a beauty. Hey, life would be pretty borong if we all drove a 993! Now get out there and drive it like you stole it!

Thanks guys. That makes me feel better about owning my "POS" (that is how the seller jokingly referred to the 996 when I had my first viewing)

Now it is time for some DE here in Seattle and Portland!

JDH- The RC was put through her paces and sold after putting 25K miles on the clock this last July ::sniff:: I do miss that pig but, I am equally happy with my Austrian DukeR.

If this is your first Porsche you are like a kid in a candy store. Enjoy it. Speaking from experience, join up with you local PCA for a DE event so that way you can exorcise your speed demons in a safe environment.
