The purchase of a first Porsche is an awesome experience. Enjoy it in good health.

Mike,

A beauty of a car. Best of luck with it.

I am trying to recognize the NJ Porsche store next to a Mercedes Store and I can only think of Ray Catena. But it does not look like their stores.

Where in Central NJ are you located.

Check the 993 forum and think about signing up for the April 7th and May 19th Spring runs. A great way to spend some time with fellow Porsche enthusiasts.

Very nice! I like the two tone interior, and well-optioned. FYI, in case you haven't been looking yet, you can get LED taillights and Fog/DRLs that, in my opinion, look great.

New Country Porsche in Greenwich, CT. They were really good! My guy was nice and low on the BS scale, and was very responsive both on the phone and over email. I found them very pleasant to work with... and I'm a real pain in the ***!

Great looking car. Congrats!
In addition to the clear side markers, i recommend a set of front and rear LED lights. Really freshens up the appearance IMHO. Lots of choices out there for places to get them from.

Sorry Mike... That is actually the location I was referring to.
Did you deal with Patrizio?

My salesman was Patrizio's right hand man, Rich. Seems like a solid operation. They've got a BUNCH of 991s hanging around there, too.

Haha!! I did this once in the rain w/ a new 99' M3 (because I couldn't wait) and ruined what should have been a glorious day! I'll never do it again.

Congrats!!!

Mike,

So happy for you and the family! It was a pleasure working with you. You were not a PITA at all! Wish I had more customers like yourself. Enjoy and call me if you need anything.

Ps get rid of the amber markers! Should have gotten you a set of those.
