Thanks Paul, every time I drive it I fall more in love with it. Absolutely everything I could have hoped for :-)
added a couple of touches to make it mine - sorry for the poor lighting, "PORSCHE" & "4S" are now black along with the bar - rear lenses got a light tint, going to do the "Panamera" in red :-)

HI Dogwood, when I read you bought from Scottsdale and asked about the sticker from the dealer and the plate frame I immediately knew the dealer. I bought mine from them in March. Small world. I took the frame and sticker off when I hit the driveway at home. Funny.

Welcome to the club! I've had my base model for about 3 weeks and I absolutely love it. I have been plotting to get into a Porsche since I was a teen and now I'm a proud member of the family. I wasn't looking for a white car either but when I saw it on black wheels I was sold. Question where did you get the black decals and bar for the back?

Nice looking car Tony, Congrats!
those are some sweet wheels.

I plasti Dipped them, turned out reasonably well, though I might need to redo a couple. Plan on doing the window trim and wheels as well.

Bend has lots of roundabouts, when traffic is light they make great chicanes
