Default Joining the ranks, best say hello

Hello,

Thought I best say hello because ill be around here a lot more often! as of today; I finally negotiated and closed the deal on the 2004 996.2 GT3 I had been looking at!

Arctic silver, cf interior trim (wtf) bi-xenon lighting, a/c and the euro recaros (in leather) it's a touring spec too.

Anyhow, will be collecting it in the coming weeks as it is about 10-12 hours from me interstate... But for now see you around I learned a lot by lurking around this forum!

Cheers

Keeping away from the track will be the hard part...

Cheers guys

As my realestate agent jokes "My job is the best contraceptive".. that's proably the same for me and track days

A beauty! Nice photography, too.
I've seen some berate the 6GT3 on looks. I love its looks and proportions.
