Congratulations. Can't believe I recognized the CT license plate. Enjoy a great running car. What a way to start with a trip across the country. How many miles on her at this time?

Thanks guys, I really do enjoy her very much, it's hard not to grab the keys every single day !
After a small trip to Mulholland Highway this morning she's at 26,300 miles.

Nice! Check Total 911 magazine database for the production number, but yes, as I recall very rare.

Awesome ride!!! Love my .2 manual as well. Many miles of smiles!

OADNFO? Did I miss something here or did you say what the license plate stood for?

GREAT car in the best color ever. I echo your driving sentiments thought I really like the stealthy rear badging of the silver TURBO on a silver Turbo. Without it, it just seems a bit barren back there. Like it was just repainted. But it does look KILLER.

Thanks a lot for all the nice comments, I'm still on my little cloud, being the lucky owner of this wonderful machine is really special.

I keep forgetting to ask the person I bought it from the meaning of the license plate. He's a great guy who loves his cars, I'll ask him about it and I'll post here if he's ok with it. Jonas, if you read this, it was an absolute pleasure dealing with you. You are a genuine nice guy and I hope you'll drop by on your next trip to LA.

As for the badging I was actually thinking about installing a Porsche badge or just "Porsche" but it's probably going to be in a while. It does look like there is something missing but for now I kind of like it.

Joining the Porsche family makes this the best Christmas ever, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and wonderful holidays !
