Since you have done your due diligence, I am guessing that you mean EXCITED (and not SCARED) with pucker, right? NTL, good luck with the new ride.

Wow, docmirror, you finally pulled the trigger! I was starting to wonder. Looks like you got a really nice one, though. Congratulations! Well done.

Thanks, lets hope so. Actually, I've been on and off looking for about 4 years. I grabbed up that Venetian blue 928 last fall because I wanted to keep it in the stable and set it up well for the next guy. A PCA buddy just bought that and I'm delivering to MI next week, so this popped up local and it hit all my buttons. I was angling for a speed yellow out west, but ugh, the thought of going 1200 miles and be disappointed didn't appeal. I have a guards red 928GT, and I have a Corso Rosa Ferrari both with the biscuit int so this is a theme. Heck, even my big truck is red with tan. Something is wrong with me, but that's another thread.

The weird thing will be I haven't had to row for many years now. I have a POS Focus that's a stick but rarely get in it. I'll need to get used to rowing again. I wouldn't have minded an auto, but happy with the stick.

Yeah, red really looks like crap on a Porsche.

The non-black, silver, gray, white requirement was the toughest thing. I can find a billion cars if I would settle for one of those.
