Default Hello from Los Angeles, CA

Hi,

I made a couple posts already but wanted to introduce myself to the 997 forum.

I bought a used 997 C2S cabrio in May of 2014 and I love it.
Manual transmission, PASM, Sport Exhaust, full leather, black on black.

I am in Los Angeles and would like to find some porsche enthusiasts for some weekend canyon runs.

Tony

Welcome to the board.
Unfortunately I'm nowhere near you, or else I'd certainly bring my triple-black 997 C4S cab out for a run...

BTW, I'm absolutely amazed you were able to get a "997 C2S" plate. Thought that would have been taken long, long ago. Nicely done.

Welcome. Beautiful car. You are going to love it.

If you're ever to the north (SF Bay Area) we can show you some great roads as well.

I've been thinking yellow on black plates for a while now. You inspired me. I visited the site. 997 C4S was taken as well as many others, but 9119972 was still there. Not as cool as yours, but I pulled the trigger for the colors.

Once again, welcome. And congratulations. And enjoy.

Welcome, and nice plates.

I'm a regular in the Malibu Canyons and Angeles Crest. Such great roads within 30min of anywhere in LA! Usually go for a nice drive after Malibu Cars and Coffee at least once per month.

So youre the reason I couldn't get 997 C2S on my legacy plates. LOL

I'm also a "Cab" driver and a self proclaimed expert on the canyons. I hit the hills once or twice a week. I'm ready when you are.

sorry Jay!

I ordered them around September 5 2015 and got them in december.
we should all plan a run on the canyons (Otua, Jay, Alpha) one of these weekends.
I live in west LA and weekends are good if i m not out sailing in MDR.
