Now you are free to drive it anytime since it is totaled. Have fun!

+997...I'm hoping between the miles and "abuse" like this that it'll be worthless by the time the "How much is my 997.2S Worth?" threads start in earnest on RL!

New battery installed. Old battery was an Interstate. Sonnen Porsche is a short walk from my house but thought it would be $300+ for a battery from the dealer. Drove to San Rafael Napa Auto parts and all they had were Napa brand batteries. Went to O'Reilly's but the Optima batteries they had didn't fit all though I was ready to buy one for $230. Gave up and went to Sonnen. I asked for a battery and they gave me another Interstate battery that's bigger (wider) than my old one for $225. All good now.

Attended Caffeine & Exotics in Buckhead. Great to see lots of 997's present.
















Attended Caffeine & Exotics (Atlanta / Buckhead- Lennox Mall).
Good number of 997's present.

Decisions, decisions!

I chose north. Some nice driving roads up near Amon G Carter Lake. Got stuck behind a rock hauler, but he was easily dispatched!

Do you have the ability to control front to back on the speakers. I lost that when I had a AVIC unit installed on my '08.

Got it out of the garage and drove it! Our local PCA chapter had a great run up to Breckenridge yesterday for lunch. We drove over three mountain passes and had a great time. It was nice to drive around today just running errands. Great weather for a cabriolet!

^ Based on recent RL threads, it appears that some people don't like cabs. Some don't like the color brown. I say, post more pics of your Porsche! That's a great looking car. Is the cab top also brown?

That is a great looking car. While I prefer coupes, I like this.
