Tomorrow is a going to be a great day. Driving from NJ to CT to pick up my new (to me) 997S Coupe. Purchased from a fellow enthusiast and I am excited.

Details:

2008 911 Carrera S 997; 7500 miles and flawless
9Q Meteor Grey
AN Black leather interior
680 Bose High end Sound
P15 Power Seat Package
XRR Carrera Sport Wheels
XSC Porsche Crest in headrests
342 Heated Front Seats
640 Sport Chrono Package Plus

I have been looking and looking and then this great car came up. Looking forward to picking it up. Hope the pictures are posted properly.
