Default I FINALLY pulled the trigger!!! 😀

I just got back from Montreal where I picked up my new to me 2012 991 Basalt Black Carrera S Cabriolet I am grinning ear to ear after my drive from Montreal to Ottawa to visit family. The car had one owner, never winter driven and is in immaculate condition. Most importantly it got the thumbs up from Andrew at AGM Performance in Montreal. Andrew put on 2 new rear tires and a oil change for my ride home.

I must be getting old as I thought the stock non PSE exhaust sounds awesome. I am doing clear side markers and Monday it is going to Piskey’s Premiere detailing in Tecumseh ON for paint correction, PPF and CQuartz Reserve.

What’s even better is my wife is just as excited as I am! I am so stoked to realize a childhood dream 40 years later.

I look forward to being an active participant in the Porsche community. Thanks to Andrew at AGM and to all the kind members here that made me feel welcome!

Better call getting a 991 vs a 997 IMO

991 is a great look. Amazing that it is 8 years old.
