robbonds: Great move. Champions are nice and 2,000 miles is well-worth $2.50 per mile. In addition, my experience has been that not driving a 0-miles new car off the lot relieves a lot of post-purchase stresss. By that I mean that it is fun keeping a cherry used-new car cherry but seems almost an obligation to do so on a 0-miles new car.

Welcome to 997 ownership. It's one of the best cars I've ever driven. You will soon realize that you have made a great deal, all things being considered.

Congratulations again.

Jay
