Default 986s to 987s to 996

Thought I'd say hello and introduce myself after just picking up my 04 Atlas Grey 996 . Started the odyssey with an 02 Boxster S, then an 05 Boxster S. Arrival of a baby got me thinking 996 or 997. Found my 04 with a year left of factory warranty and then 2 years CPO and jumped.
So far so good - loving the car after coveting 911s for a long time. Getting used to the change in weight and feel after driving two Boxsters with PSM.


In any event here's the obligatory pic:

Welcome aboard. I'm really interested in hearing your opinion about overall satisfaction with all of the models once you get some more seat time.

Best,
Jon
