Dell,

For me, Speed Yellow is a terrific color for the GT3. If I were to get one (GT3) then that color would be my first choice.

Congrats, again!

Thanks again Rich! It is definitely a color that suits this car and if you are not a bright color person it will grow on your quickly.

Just be prepared for all the attention is garners.

A belated congratulations, Dell. You think you like this car now -- just wait, it only gets better. Just take small bites.

I've taken two trips from Portland to NorCal this season for track days with the Euro seats; one trip was 500 miles each way, the other 600 miles each way. And, yes, I feel your pain. Not much I can do for your ***, but if you're like me another real problem with these seats for the long haul is lack of lumbar support. If that's a problem for you as well, let me know -- I've got the solution: an inflatable lumbar support. It works great.

I like your new avitar -- everything except the needle placement, that is.

Cheers, Andy

Congrats Dell.

Now, get out there and learn how to drive it the way it should be driven.

May you never see my ugly *ss in your rear view mirror . . .

Have fun . . . and remember . . . NO SQUIDS

Unfortunately no. I am working on the 944 already to get it ready for the next season. I am also contemplating buying another 911 myself . . .

Dell- I've read the tale of your search over the past months with interest since I have a C2 cab and a 955 and found my GT3 earlier this year. My 1st Porsche was a sort-of-speed-yellow 356A many years ago. Before I found my seal GT3 my wife told me about a dream she'd had in which she went out to the garage and found I'd brought home a yellow p-car. I think she somehow dreamed up the car you found. Happy motoring!
