Default Wheeee!

Finally! After about three months of waiting I got my car out today

Have to be extra careful with all the loose stomes on the roads but it's sure nice to be back!!!!

I think I put more miles on the car today than all the miles since the middle of November.

Congrats and welcome back.

Yes, more spring fever here, lots of nice cars out today.

Played tag today with a new M3, boy this little ol' 996 doesn't give much away to that car.
Biggest advantage it has is the 8400 redline.

Have fun!

Suckers! (j/k) I drive mine all winter. My neighbor with the 993 garage queen just shakes his head.
