Default Finally bought my first 911!

I'm proud to say I was finally able to buy my dream car Monday night. God is good. I remember playing with the hot wheels back in the 80's, and I've wanted one ever since. Besides being manual, it had everything I wanted. I've never owned a stick, and haven't driven one in 10 years. I hope my clutch can take the abuse. CPO trade in, 60k miles, factory. warranty expires in about 6-7 weeks. Got the car for $44k! Dealer spent $2600k doing things I would have had to do anyway, (breaks, tires, oil change, detail, etc). My last car (first Porsche) was a 2011 Cayenne S Hybrid. Man what a difference.

I'd record that sound bite on my iPhone, because you're going to be using it a lot in the upcoming days, months and years!

Congrats on the new ride...T

Nice pick up at a great price! 60k miles is just getting properly broken in. Isn't it great to finally own your dream car? What a feeling.

Enjoy in good health.

Nice with a manual cab. Congrats and welcome I had to look for two years before I found mine with the mileage, condition and options I wanted. Manuals isn't that common on convertibles even in Europe where I live.
