I made an error on the landing date. It was 5-16-05 not 5-12-05. Just trying to be accurate.

Tim, I used the Micorsoft program "Digital Image Suite 10". The pics were resized to 640X480, I pasted to the desktop and took the attachments from there. You can do what ever you want in that program, and view the pic as it will be seen before you copy. Hope this helps. Take Care. More Pics to follow this week.

Very nice Jay, can't wait to see it in person! Whats with the "PSM Failure"?

Hey Gary, I just had the key turned to position one to show how many miles were on the car at delivery; 27 miles not bad. By the way the engine sounds awesome on the 997 S. Check out the pic of the engine for the 911 Turbo that they were working on. The car was only two months old, had an oil leak, not a RMS, and they couldn't find it. They had to remove the entire engine and transmission and finallly found the problem. I can only hope my baby doesn't have this problem. Talk to you soon my friend.

Thanks DJ23. Cogratulations on the car and the near perfect delivery timing!

Interesting because the black interior looks more black than any I have seen before.

Do you have other photos of interior you could conveniently post?

Dave, one note on the floor mats. If you order the Bose system the correct mats are on back order. The original mats do not fit in the front of the car because of where the subwoofer is placed. So I may have to bring the car home with paper covers on the floor. I quickly told my sales rep that's o.k. I'll take my car, call when the mats are in. Too bad Porsche did not figure this out ahead of time, that cabriolets with the Bose system would need different mats. The reason is because it is a cab, they could not place the subs behind the reat seats due to space needed for the convertible top. Oh well I don't mind waiting for them. Good luck on your new order.
