Nice ride Jim! Most awesome 911 ever.

I see you unloaded the two you just had to get this one. Nice trade up.

As far as hanging out here? If you put your avatar back the way it was you can post here 24/7 !

Thanks, all.

I was very fortunate to have this car pretty much fall into my lap. Somebody bailed on it.

After reading about it in Excellence a few months ago, I was blown away. I wanted one so badly but didn't know how in the world someone even gets the opportunity to be considered for one of these limited production cars. Turns out, sometimes you just have to be in the right place at the right time.

My fiancee isn't a big fan of hers.

BTW, looking at your stable makes me a little melancholy. But just a little.

Especially if you don't give us your first hand driving impressions and some nice shots of the car in detail. You son of a gun... I am happy for you. Enjoy safely.

Thanks, again.

The car is a BEAST! So raw, so loud, so fast. The mechanical sounds (single mass flywheel rattling, chasis shaking at idle, etc) are incredible. I have driven it only 7 miles, so I have few true impressions...other than WOW!

Interior pics and more body shots to come.

We’re jealous of your new car. You can stay here, but on the road don’t come near me and overshadow my meager C4S. Or I'll run you over. If I can catch you. Which I can't.
