As promised:





Going to order new front mats soon.

Sorry about the crappy quality, it's dark now and it's raining tonight and the flash makes if look like the interior is orange when it is really a dark red.

I owned a pickup with a red interior once. I was told that you'll find that you either love or hate it. Personally, I loved it and this one looks great too, congrats!

wow, I have seen that color is later models and didnt car for it... but on this year I love it! (differance is the graphite pieces break it up just enough)

Thought about black floor mats ? Personally I think it would really look awesome and at ~$120 it's more eye candy than the CD holder...

BTW many people say the CD thing is a waste of space, but I prefer mine to the open shelf (where I would just stack crap) Watch ebay for a used one... just an idea.... not everyone like them

Great pics, thanks for sharing


one more comment.... I have been wondering what a black steering wheel would look like with an "off color" HOLY CRUD.... I love that !

You paid 23k??????????? Holy crap, I think I got robbed...

For the newbie here (me!!), is there a tradition of posting pics of one's 911 upon purchase?

<Tim thinks to himself> Self, how the hell did this Newbie get buy me??? The other guys are going to jump all over my *** for letting him slip through the cracks. Maybe some of the others haven't noticed and I can still redeem myself! <Tim stops thinking and goes into action>

Yes, it is customary for Newbies to tell us a little about their car and to post pics. You can consider this next sentence as your "Newbie initiation" to Rennlist. Come on Newbie, post the !@#$%^&* pics!

<Tim thinks to himself again> Whew, that was close! Maybe "the guys" won't notice and I won't take any heat for dropping the ball.

How dumb am I ? I'm checking the air in the tires and notice the tires are not 17" but 18". Duh! No wonder you can feel chewed up bubble gum on the road when you roll over it!

See, I knew what you meant. (snicker) I could just picture seams all over the place and ratty looking, wrinkled job to really make my day. I rather stick a coke bottle over it!
