Default New to me Porsche

I've owned three Merc E500E's and finally decided to take the plunge after drolling over the 911's for years. Picked up a 2009 Carrara S Cabriolet yesterday.

A relatively low number of miles for a 10 year old car. The folks over in the 997 forum would probably appreciate a few interior/exterior photos...

Took a trip along the Hood Canal in Washington this weekend. The car was a blast.

Nice car, you’ll get a more enthusiastic response on the 997 forum

Great choice! I just picked up a 2009 997.2 c2s cab last week too. I imagine you are just as smitten right now as I am.

Yes, so far I love the car. I've owned faster cars but this is my first full blooded Porsche.
