It's always been that way with my Porsches. Never owned a silver, red, or black one.

One day (while living in OKC) a guy came up to me and asked me if I had been in New Mexico recently,--"yes, that would have been me..." When you have a one-off car you can't hide very well!

The Aero kit is beautiful with that color.
I don't however like the painted center console.
Thanks, I know the painted console is not for everyone. Hell sometimes I wish I had gotten leather console. I have some of that boy racer style in me still..

A pic of my baby when I first brought her home. BTW I will be picking my car up tomorrow from the restoration shop. It's been a long time coming. And yes I will post pics so for those who happen to have someone run into them, you can see that these cars can be put back together again. I will have a new post soon to show the repairs and few mods that I've added.

Great pics of all the cars.

Hey Deanski, thanks for the reply. If you went in the back of Automotive Associates at the meeting you probably would have seen my car still wrapped in plastic. They do a great job. Talk to you soon.

Yes they DO a wonderful job!!! I was at FBL for Tech Tactics and hotel for the DE event. I know CVR has the April meeting at Danbury, so I'll have to attend as Mike and crew wants my car there to show off anyway. I see Chris took a stock inventory 997 with an Aerokit on it. Brave if you ask me, but I also hear they sold the other one they had in Meteor Gray with the Turbo wheels done in same color.

Hope to meet up one day.

MZN50: the bits of red around your car (calipers, dials, belts) look great and set off the black/black really well. Nice choices!

Now just change out the amber side markers for clears, and you're all set....

Did you buy the car in Ottawa?
