I finally took the plunge into Porsche ownership with this gorgeous '08
Carrera S with factory aero package. After many years of front/mid-engine cars, I am getting familiarized with this rear engine thing......and enjoying every moment along the way!

Hmm. Lives in Cali, handle is CHPahoy. You wouldn't happen to be a LEO would you? Just in case, please religiously follow all posted speed limits in your sexy new car, just like all the good boys and girls in the 997 community do.
Congrats on the new ride.

Thanks to all for the warm welcome. I'll get some more shots both int/ext posted soon.
Nice deduction T, 27 years in the biz but glad to be done. Now I'm part of the problem

Welcome aboard!
I usually blow through San Luis Obispo on my way to the coast, beautiful part of CA to own a Porsche plus you have the PCH right through town!
