Default Well...it didn't come.

No new 991 Turbo under the tree this morning. In fact...no Porsche stuff at all, but the kids got me an oil painting of a scene from Scarface signed by Pacino for the movie room (cliche, I know, but they grew up on CRIBS).

Anybody get anything cool for Christmas?

...funny you say 991 Turbo; yesterday I was driving by the local shop and someone in what looked to be a fresh off-the-showroom floor Turbo was preparing to pull out of the lot. Maybe he was picking up his present early??

Nice swag you got for your movie room, Gonzo911!

Merry Christmas everyone.

One of my favorite movies from the 80's.


No Pcar stuff on my end...but very happy with a great wife, good health and being a lucky guy to drive a Porsche!

Best part is spending time with my kids. I got to build this with my son!

I was awesome this year but the 918 order sheet was not under my tree. I don't get it. But, my wife did authorize me to get a Cayenne to replace my Jeep. I am stuck in Denver with the inlaws and can't wait to get home to shop.

My 4 year old loves cars (including riding in the back seat of daddy's), so I got him his own! Mine is a 2002 and Seal Grey, otherwise looks pretty darn close!

My wife signed me up for a track day settling the issue of whether I have her blessing to track the car.

An o2 sensor failed while I was away for a week at work, so I get to pay the selling dealer for an o2 sensor replacement that I could do with my pecker tied to my ear.
YAY!
lol

Merry Christmas fellas.

Not directly car related, but I got a GoPro. Looking forward to seeing some video from the 996 eating up some twistys... Also looking forward to using it during a triathlon, that could be fun.

Merry Christmas gang!
