Default Hello. Here is my beauty

Hello everybody. I´m happy to start writting here. I´m from spain and this week is 1 year since I bought the most exciting most pleasent car I´ve ever had: a MY06 997.1 4S manual, with (now) 97.000 kms (60K miles, I´ve purchased it on sept ´22 with 57K miles) on the clock. The car is full leather, chrono pack, sunroof, sport exhaust system, short shifter... and I absolutely adore it. The noise it makes with the open exhaust valves is way better than the newer models. I´ve purchased it from another great porsche enthusiast that has another 2 porsches and it is in an absolute immaculate shape. I´ve paid 58K €. The shape, history and maintenance is worth it. The car wasn´t announced anywhere and was a mouth-to-ear in a private cicle thanks to my job (Ravenol / Redline / Amsoil distributor).

I read from this forums since a year ago and now it´s time to take part of them.

Thanks for letting me join.

Here is she:

my 997 4S

Best regards.

Congrats and welcome....the 997 is definitely a special 911. Driver focused without a plethora of digital aids. Modern and Analog.

Enjoy it in good health!

OK, then just avoid talking about "El Barsa" and "Los Merengues" and will be fine...! Congratulations, and welcome to the forum! I'm traveling one more time to lovely Spain soon.

Congratulations on your first anniversary with your C4S! Guessing your near Lerma. Haven’t been there, but just up the Autovia in Burgos, when we drove the Camino from Olite to Santiago de Compostela. That was a great trip!
