Talking Finally got a 911! (first post)

Greetings!
I'm new to the list and wanted to advise that after waiting about 30 years, I finally have a 911 in the garage! Just picked up a 2006 997 C4S Cabriolet (midnight blue metallic, blue top, natural brown full leather with sport seats) on April 10th. Had wanted a 2007, but we (wife and I) fell in love with this car...and it only had 17,000km on it! We're rectifying the low mileage situation.

Sorry, no interior shot yet...but here's one, top down (in the garage at the dealer - those orange marker lenses are better in clear)...and the rear fender shot.
