Welcome to the desert, 993
So after looking at a few cars and doing some PPI's - I settled on the Aventurine 993 I always wanted. It just got delivered by covered transport to Santa Fe last week. It came with the Targa wheels which I think look great with this color. 48,XXX on the clock - all stock. Going to need some new shocks shortly - but other than that in great, great shape. What a pleasure it is to drive.

The yellow NM plates will look great on your Aventurine beauty. Enjoy it in good health!

Aventurine green is a great color. I wonder why Porsche stopped using it.

I thought it was blue at first glance. Aventurine Green is one of those colors that reflect diff shades with/out sunshine. Love it!

NM plates are now turquoise! Will look even better than yellow.

Great car! I'm guessing you have some nice roads out your way to provide adequate exercise. Enjoy.

Thanks all. Next thing is to find the good roads. I'm used to upstate new York.... A sort of drivers paradise.
