Thumbs up Just hit 10,000 miles...since January...

Man its been fun!!

Though we have a sedan and a truck, I drive this everyday. Can't help myself...

I pack it full of groceries a couple times a week..and drive it in the hills of Malibu at full chat. What a great car. Can't imagine how I would replace it...at any cost.

I think the interior is done. Considering a Heigo rollbar. But the next big move will be a re-gear, and then a 3.8 when the mileage gets high..

Very nice color combination, nice set up...great to see others on the road....these cars love to be driven a lot. Already put 12,000 miles on the one I picked up this spring.

Very nice. Too many Porsches sit at home. I try to get mine out on the road every once in a while also.

I absolutely love the RS seats, especially with that color combo. They go perfectly in your car. Well done!

You'll love the car 10 times more once you fix the gearing.........really.

Cheers,

I've watched the rapid transition of your car from delivery to it's current state. Awesome. It looks fantastic and you're obviously enjoying it. These cars are truly inspirational.
