Hey guys, just thought I'd introduce myself. My name's Matt. Just picked up my first Porsche tonight, 04 911 C2 with just over 46K miles. Seems to be great condition. Previous owner traded in for a new model, seems to be very well taken care of. Gray, all leather w/controls. Love it so far. Previous owner installed a radar detector, haven't figured out brand yet, but it's built into car.

Welcome to Rennlist and Contrats on getting a nice looking 996!! At least I think is is nice looking car but can't raeally tell because you didn't post pics.

It is customery for Newbies to tell us a little about their car and to post pics, so consideer this next sentence your "Newbie Initiation!" Come on Newbie, post the @#$%^&* pics!

Please know that this is all meant in good fun, but we do like our pics! Again welcome to Rennlist!

BTW, what part of SA do you live in? I lived in tthe NW part (Wurtzbach & IH010) area for about 30 years until 10 yeaqrs ago.

Yeah, I saw your popup in front of mine while I was waiting for my screen to update... Can't blame a guy for trying to save a new brotha!

Still looking for the pics!

Welcome to the club. Your 911 sounds nice, but we can't see it.
