Great pics and review of the two. If you’d like some more 996 company next time, let me know.

Out on some back roads. Not terribly picturesque, nor the car very clean(seems to be default condition, blame the owner) but the car handles really well...

You are so right, not this car. As this engine has broken in, it has gotten stronger. The engine just sings. And revs really fast. So much fun (you'll see...)

Thanks! It took a few iterations to get it to this point, but now it's like a slot car. I may have the rear a little low. There are a couple of speed bumps that will get me if I'm not super careful. It's at X74 height +/- a turn(1.5mm) to bring it into balance. The Ohlin's are currently set to 12/8 F/R. My alignment shop had no trouble meeting the X74 alignment numbers with all new stock arms and hardware.

Pretty quiet commute in the Colorado foothills the day before the day before Christmas. Touch of snow and -7 degrees (F) when I left the house.

Spotted this in the wild in Venice parked in front of Felix. Color didn't come out great on the phone but looks like an XAA in purple viola metallic.
