Come on RngRick - fake or real, its killing us?
BTW do you have anything to do with the "Great Swamp" reservation in NJ? I recall a guy with that moniker ("Ranger Rick") when my boys were doing Boy Scouts years ago, but I can't see him driving a hot beauty like that, but who knows.

Pot is Fake - aplogies, was away on a mini vacation - color is Cobalt Blue - I placed the towels on the fake pot, before I discard or let me son's use them on their dirty cars :-)
RngRick is my plate, 20 years as a Army Airborne Ranger, now close to retirement and enjoying my 997 daily, as I have all my 911 for the last 41 years

Fantastic-looking 911. So much talk on this forum about IMS bearings and bore scoring on 997s, that it's great to hear about a trouble-free car. Most 997 owners with no problems don't usually come here to write about it.

Mods are as follows
Fabspeed Max Flow, 200 Cell CATS, GT3 TB, AWE CA, - lastly was a Tune - She runs great, no issues, still love it. Drove my brothers 992 - loved the interior, power but that was it, I rather have my 997, old but perfect IMHO.

That Blue is probably the only color I would want if Silver & Grey weren't available.

5 yrs ago right around the same time as you an RL member who lived close to my house was selling a 2009 Targa in that same^^ Blue w/black interior.
Was a really nice car but 2 issues - Rear seat leather was de-laminating and the front bumper looked like it drove thru a BB gun shooting gallery. Seller wouldn't budge from his asking price which didn't allow for the $5K front bumper and front fender re-spray at super high end shop for correct color match.
