Delurking to introduce myself and my new car. After may years of sensible Subarus and Volvos the capital committee AKA my wife finally OK'd a return to sports cars. I'd owned Alfas and a 994 Turbo in the past and wanted to get back to something that was sporty and put a smile on my face in the morning.
Spent the last 8 months reading the forums (which are a mine of useful information) and looking for a C4S that was suitably priced and in good condition. Finally found a black 2010 C4S with under 20K km. Test drove it, purchased it and put 2000km on last weekend on a trip from Calgary to Vancouver and back. What a wonderful vehicle - oodles of power always at hand and grip and handling unlike anything else I've ever driven.
Lovely car, thraxx! Just today, as I was gassing up my red/tan C2S, there was a black/tan C4S in front of me. Got to chatting & I have to admit that black/tan color combo is very nice. Reminded me of a cool, refreshing pint of Guinness! Enjoy it in good health.
The drive from Calgary > Vancouver > Calgary in your new "sensible" 997 must've been very special!
I've only driven that area in a Jeep 4x4 which during a very long winter vacation was (in fact) highly sensible, however I now dream of taking the C4S up there and truly enjoying her capabilities. Perhaps one day but in the meantime, enjoy that part of the world for all of us!
