Welcome and nice car! Where are you from?

Did you just buy it off the lot like that or you chose the color/package?

Thanks...I live downtown toronto (i'll update my profile). I bought it off the lot like that, I was drawn to it when I got to the dealership so I picked it up the week after.

So YOU are the one that bought "my" car.....lol. I had the same reaction to your car when it was parked in the middle of the showroom at Downtown Porsche.....did they remove my drool marks inside the car?

Beautiful car. I love the color (but of course I am biased ). I hope that you come to our Saturday morning GTG and we can meet you and your new car

i'm pretty sure i spotted your car and mentioned it on the board (in the spotted thread). saw two GTS's on the same day, one silver, one grey.

i'm downtown too - one more person for a downtown meet. that makes 2. lol.

Mark me down as the 3rd person to meet downtown as I commute to work daily from Whitby.....yes, the 997 is damn fantastic as a daily driver

loved the car and the Tech Pkg, but the dollars didn't "line-up" and since I already have a older 997, the next purchase will be an R8 for me

BTW, I love the colour too....and I'm also biased

That third photo is one of the coolest shots of a Porsche I've ever seen. Nicely done!
