Default Congrats!

Enjoy. I am a recent 911 owner who traded his Cayman S as well.

I seem to have a tendency to name my cars. Prior cars all had some semblance of a story:

Silver BMW 3 Series - 'Silvia', because she was silver
Blue Boxster - 'Susie', after 'Susie the Little Blue Coupe' children's book
Silver Cayman S - 'Esther' - just saw the movie Orphan, plus she was an 'S'

There really wasn't a story behind this one; 'Wanda' seemed to fit so why not?

Wanda is great. We name our cars too. Having trouble with the new 528i but we'll get it.

A very nice looking car. Drive it in good health. Watch the squirrels.I don't know how many I've killed already. They've finally encountered a car as agile as they are!

Man that is a sweet interior. I love the carbon shifter.
Beautiful. Why did you trade in the Cayman S?

Drive her in good health!

I loved the Cayman S, but I've always pined for a 911 which I consider the quintessential Porsche. I also find the cabin a bit quieter in the 911 since the engine is further back; also, the Cayman had unresolvable rattles from the hatch that really took away some of the enjoyment since I was constantly trying to nail them (OCD).
