Hi, I am waiting to pick up my Porsche this week. I am so excited.
It took me a long time to decide to get one. It is a 1999 C4 with Aero package. It has under 7000 miles.
How many miles do you put on your cars?

Congratulations on your new car, fanC4. There are several low mileage Porsches's out there. Mine's a bit on the high side at 10,500 miles, an '02 C4S. Quite a bit of those miles are track miles!!

Drive the Porsche the way it was designed to be driven. C'ya at the track !!!
