Default Just detailed my new baby....

She was delivered on Saturday on an open carrier. Filthy!
Got her detailed today. She's my first 911. Taking it easy on her so far.
I want to really get a feel for her before I push it. I used to have an E46 M3 that I thought was comparable until I realized this is a totally different driving experience from anything I've ever had. Love it so far!
Brand new PS2's being fitted Friday.

Sorry for the lousy picture quality on my BB cam but its all I got.

Again I want to thank all forum members for the plethora of great information
I found here that helped me make a well informed purchase.

Congrats!

I took it easy as well when I first got mine but don't be scared, push that car to what it should be doing!

Rockin' Car. Rockin' Color. Rockin' Wheels. You are obviously a man of distinguished taste! (see left!).

You bought one without pumpkins -- so obviously the person who owned it before you took care of it.

Enjoy!
