My new 997.1 Turbo: Slate Grey with full Terracotta
Hi everyone! Some of you guys may have seen me asking noob questions over the past couple of months. Well, I appreciate all of your help, insights, and advice. While I'm still definitely a noob... I'm now an owner! 
I just picked this up on Friday in Santa Clara and drove it back up to Seattle (roughly 800 miles of pure fun). Started with 24k miles on the clock, now has ~25k miles. Bone stock. Loving it so far! First impressions:
1. On ramps are so much fun
2. 60-100 happens far too effortlessly
3. After 100, the car really sits down as if to say, "let's go". I drove safely for the most part but did take her to 130 during a small stretch and she was GLUED to the road.
I'm planning on leaving her stock for the most part (at least for the time being). I do want to add tint soon, and will be adding a set of wheels tires for the winter (keeping my stocks for summer). Thinking 35% on the tint, and either HRE FF01 in Tarmac or OZ Leggera HLT in Black 19-inch wrapped in Dunlop Winter Sport 3D.
Looking forward to some PCA meet ups, particularly in the PNW. Here are some pics!
Cheers,
Luan (pronounced Loon, if we ever meet in person)

That is a great color combination.
I saw Terracotta 10+ years ago as I was putting my order together. Very tasteful.
