Default My first Porsche!

Hello everyone!

I just picked up my first Porsche last week, a 2 owner 2006 C4S in GT silver with Special Cocoa interior, Sports exhaust and 6 speed! I'm in LOVE! The 911 had always been slightly unobtainable in my eyes, but I scored a deal I could not pass up. Looking forward to really enjoying her in a few months since I already had to put her up for winter

Congrats. Just bought it and no driving? You're a stronger man than I. Hoping you have a few warm fall days before the salt crews hit the roads...T

Congrats! Your car looks really mint and I think you'll love the cocoa interior. Enjoy it in good health!

I was able to put a little over 500 miles on her last week. Just tucked her in for the winter yesterday.

It sure is. New tires, brakes, full service history and full clear bra.

A C4 is made for the winter with the right shoes. She looks like a beauty.

Looks very clean and I like the Lobster forks. How many miles are on her?
