Sold the M3 in Dec last year to start my business. This year has been fantastic. So much so, my wife pulled me aside a few weeks ago and said..."you need to be in a Porsche again. You deserve it."

God I love her.

FWIW - Here's the M3 in street trim:



And in track trim:



And then me at my last DE hauling azz last Sept (Passing a bunch of Porsches....sorry ) :

Chad...glad that you are back on the forums and that this car stayed in the family. The white and balck contrast complimented with the aero package makes it a unique car.
I also waited for the right opportunity and after a 2 year seach became a 996 owner. It makes the moment more gratifying when all the stars align.

Enjoy it

Hey Chad, I know a great guy who can make you a new Sig.

Congrats on the beautiful car. I am new here so I didn't know that you had been missing.

There is something about a white 911, it just looks right! Nice ride.
