I will buy your RS 4.0 in 5 years. I'm sure it will have less than 2000 miles!

Congrats on the new 4.0 and hope you enjoy using it. It looks like a monster (good thing).

I have dealt with Steve Walker. Very knowledgeable but he was not very negotiable on pricing when I was shopping for a new 2009 C2S. This was at a time when Porsche sales were seriously hurting and $10K trunk money was available on many cars. Times were different then.....or are they really?

Back on track. Beautiful car and hope to see it around NJ at one of our get togethers.

The 4.0 will also get little use.

Wow. I really like the looks of your new car, but how can you know you loved the 997 in less than 2,000 miles. Congrats. Now drive the 4.0.

This coming for a guy (me) that has 10K on his 2006 C2S.
When I consider your avatar in conjunction with your post above, I must conclude that you don't get out much!

If that new (the "new" new car, not the "old" new car) is parked in your garage, you should at least take the wrap off your steering wheel!

It's okay.

Really!

Perhaps; and I bet his garage loves him very much. (Reminds me of "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" with the Ferrari in the Living Room - if you don't drive it you may as well display it.)
