I drove the car about 30 miles yesterday and here are my first impressions...WOW

The clutch is a little bit tricky getting into first gear but otherwise a very nice gearbox. The power is intoxicating and a little bit scary under full throttle. The handling is just spectacular...the car goes exactly where you point it. And last but not least the sounds coming from the engine compartment are music to my ears.

Congratulations Rich. A black car is tough to find. Your car looks fantastic.
Enjoy it and have fun at full throttle for a few seconds until you run out of road. Amazing car.
I know you have been told before but the tires will break loose at near any speed until warmed up.
It's a fun wake up call at 50 miles per hour when the rear moves a tad.

Wow, way to go...that's going to be my next porsche purchase, although I'll have to wait until the kids are out of college!
