OK guys and gals....I'm all in now. Place my order for my 997S with X51 today. Now the wait begins............

I've learned a lot from this forum hope to contribute more once my car arrives. Much thanks to Aerosmith and Ray in Seattle, for their comments on the X51. Also thanks to NKhalidi for photos of the black on terracotta interior...I changed my order this morning from standard black.

self dimming mirrors
sport shift

tpms
park assist...I know, I know...you don't need it. But I like it.

December build for Feb delivery. I had to order out of state. My local dealer had no X51 allocations so my car will be coming from Florida.

MSRP 113K. Tried hard to stay under 100K.... A mental thing with me. I bought my first house in 1987 for 100K and that was a ton of $$$ to me back then (still is).

Once I was over $100K I figure what the heck... I need full leather too.

Aerosmith,

I forgot to add in destination charge and floormats. Now I'm at 114K. What the heck. If I didn't exactly what I wanted I would be miserable.
