Default A Few Blue Pics...
Finally getting around to downloading a few pictures from Europe. My new 06 997S Cabrio in Blue Turquoise and natural brown leather. (for some reason the IE application is changing the color of the interior,--deadening it a bit. It is actually a little bit redder and brighter.)

Stunning. If you ever drive it up to the Bay Area theres a meet every Saturday morning at 8am at Santana Row in San Jose, would love to see it in person

I know, i know 8am on a Saturday is a bit harsh but people start showing up till 10am sometimes...

That is of course if you decide to come back

Dan, that's just simply gorgeous. Your car is impressive every time I see pictures. Speaking of which, what castle is that in the background?

Berg Nanstein,--Landstuhl, Germany. Was also the site of a photography session of mine about 30 years ago with another 911.
