Hey guys -
Wanted to introduce myself and show you the new ride.

To make a long story short, I got my first 911 in 2011. It was a '84 targa. A beautiful car, but could not drive as much as I wanted. Wanted more of the creature comforts a newer car offered. I'm a suit and tie guy, and driving to work in the summer with no A/C was unbearable.

Sold my 911 in a day, to my suprise, and have been on the hunt ever since.

After not moving fast enough on two great examples, I got lucky and found this beauty and put down my deposit sight unseen. I'm a sucker for the meteor grey/ natural brown combo and knew this was the one.

2007 997S. 28k miles, CPO, local one owner car. I couldn't be happier! Three coats of Zaino later, she looks stunning!

Default Many thanks

I'll have to get some interior shots soon. For some reason I can't get an image up.
It's a great car. I'm so pleased!

Fantastic, I got the same color/wheel combo. Probably the best combo possible. those wheels are for sure best wheels made for 997.1!
