Default Welcome Mr. Red













Some of you wanted to know what was incoming after I sold Mr. Blue? Well, welcome Mr. Red. I have been blessed with some awesome car luck in my life (I have to thank my old man) and it happened again. I'm sure some of you remember this car when it came up for sale at North Houston with John Wright a little over a year ago Well, thanks to Doug at Switchcars he was able to find it for me. According to his PTS database this should be a fairly rare beast (side note, Doug also found an amazing PTS Riviera Blue 997RS I saw recently as well). The man knows his 997's and he knows where they are. Similar spec to my last RS but PTS and a pretty cool DZL package. Needless to say yesterday was a good day.

I wasn't sure about that at times (always getting caught up in the next best thing) but as I have grown older and wiser with this brand I absolutely believe you are right. Many things changed when the 991 platform arrived.

That is so sweet.... I love a red 911, and PTS is even better. +1 on Doug

Mr. Blue Arrives in Colorado tomorrow and to say I’m psyched is an understatement.

It's actually Riviera, one of the six, and the lowest mileage one.

Michael got the best Red one in North America.

Corrected ^

Man, I knew that! Sorry! Saw it yesterday and talk about about a sweetheart that thing must of been in mothballs tucked away somewhere. Not often you see two low mileage PTS cars within 100 yards of each other and not know it. Thanks again Mr. 997 😉 🏁
