Thanks again for answering my rookie questions.
I am elated to announce I have finalized a deal on the car, transferred the funds, purchased a one-way plane ticket for tomorrow morning to pick up the car! Prior to taking delivery however, I will be driving the car to an unaffiliated Porsche dealer for a PPI.
I look forward to "officially" joining the Porsche community and meeting you all hopefully in person.
Will post photos when I take delivery. It will be difficult falling asleep tonight...

Congrats. PCH is a great decision.
Joe ... let the group know schedules. I can't speak for others, but my new tires go on tonight and I'm ready. I'll arrange to take a day off ... it's time to go on another drive!!!

Didn't end up taking 1. Clear bra took longer than anticipated so ended up driving I-5 all the way.
This car goes! Feels like a giant kart. Love it so far. Only complaint is some wind whistling noise coming from the drivers side at 50 mph+ (is this normal?). Thinking the seals may need replacement. Car is under CPO, so shouldn't be an issue.

It's particularly impressive a car of this caliber can ride comfortably for 400+ miles, be used as a grocery getter and a track day toy.
I am addicted...
I'll be taking the car in for the wind whistle noise next weekend, not concerned.
