Default My first Porsche

One of my dreams when I was young was to own a Porsche. Well, I finally pulled the trigger and bought one. She is a 2009 997.2 C2 with PDK. I’m looking forward to learning from the Porsche community and spending many hours behind the wheel.

Beauty! Enjoy it. One simple mod to make , add clear side markers. You will be amazed how much that little change will improve the looks of your already sweet looking ride.

Thank for the suggestion, but the markers are clear. Since they were lit when I took the pictures you can’t tell.

Congrats on winning the hunt for these elusive beasts. You will love it and more so each time you drive it. However we like stories also. Tell us about why and how you hunted it down and the final capture. You may be new to the forum, but don't be timid. We want stories! (car related would be good).
Enjoy!

That's a very nice - clean looking car. A classic in silver.

Awesome, your life changing for the better. Porsche **** on YouTube on what to/how to, spacers, lower suspension, exhaust mods, and so so many neat tools to buy, light the CC up! Remember to treat wife really good so she doesn’t cut you off.

Thanks for the photo! I am putting the same 19" wheels on my Seal Gray 997.1. I think they look great!
