Congrats on the car.I have exactly the same car and love it.I notice as usual that the terracotta colour and texture looks different in the pictures to how it does 'in the flesh'.It is not as bright and shiny as in the photos.Makes a real change for me having a bold interior colour after lots of black/black,silver/black,silver/grey,black/grey cars!!!!My car has done an identical mileage too

Does it look great in person?
Arctic silver is soooo common of a color I didnt think I ever wanted it. Does the terra cotta make it look unique enough?
Are you happy you got Tip?
2WH, I think we are joined at the hip for eternity. I'm your long lost brother!
Since we have twin cars, could you send me some detailed pics Phunkyp@pacbell.net.
Only the wheels will set us apart..
What do you think about the price I paid?

it allows you to focus on the road more. which again being a foreigner on english country lanes is a good thing :P

I was actually surprised at how quickly I adjusted to shifting with my left hand in the UK. (Being left handed didn't hurt, either, maybe).
Shifting,--all part of the 911 experience,---but the Tips are the best they have designed so far!

As for being my long lost brother thats possible.I am 1 of 10 children already!!!Dont know your exact location but I know you bought your car from fort lauderdale-funny because my dad used to have a place on pompano beach some years ago!!!!!
The US prices seem very good compared to what we pay here in the UK,my car would have been about £76000 new.Not sure what the exchange rate is at the moment im guessing the rate is about 1.7 dollars per pound which translates to $129200.(No discount here in the uk either)
