Nice , i have a 09 ZR1 and a 997.1 S so i know what you are saying. I get asked all the time about comparing the two. The two cars are night and day and lucky for me I thoroughly enjoy driving each.

Nice ride! I wear my Corvette Museum T-Shirt all the time when driving my Porsche. In fact...about 20 Cars and 30 people from the Nashville Porsche Club went to the Corvette museum last month.

Welcome!

That's the Mojave version of the western diamondback. Nasty booger with a cocktail of both neuro and hemotoxins that vary quite a bit by region. Difficult bite to treat.
I ran him over in my first Porsche a couple houses down from me. He's about a 3', and seemed pretty healthy until he met Mr. Michelin.

Homer creeps me out, so we're even

Congrats, beautiful color combo. I also went from an 06 to an 09 C2S Cab. I've driven my buddy's Z06 several tomes and I wholeheartedly agree with your post. The Z06 is definitely fun in its own regard. Your wife must love sports cars for you to own both.

Thanks!
My wife is a good ole southern gal from Charlotte, and yes, she loves sports cars. She actually egged me on to get another Porsche - gotta love that!
She had her own motives though. She was intimidated by the Z06, and never got used to the torque. It takes a fair amount of feathering to drive that car smooth, and she never got the hang of it. She calls the Porsche "her" car, so Sunday when I was cleaning up, I asked her to help, and she clayed the whole car! I guess I'll keep her, since I've got 32 years invested so far....
