Well after 16 years of hibernation the wife finally allowed me to get another 911. She wasn't around the last time, so she really doesn't understand why I never shut up about Porsche's. The budget she gave me was tight ($15K) and the window of her approval I knew would be small so I had to jump (as in fast). I just wanted to get my foot back in the door with the hope that she will catch the bug too. Here is what I got:

Any comments would be greatly appreciated. I wanted at least an '84 and something as original as possible. The car is located only a couple of hours away so that was another plus. I haven't picked it up yet (won't get it until Monday) but I did have it taken to a Porsche service facility near the seller and using the great checklist from this site had them go over it thoroughly. A/C and front brakes needed some attention, new rear shocks and a few other small details but other than that a clean bill of health. Getting her a full service as well.
A couple of questions for the experts.
1. Any idea as to the color name?
2. Anything else I should do right away?
3. Think I did okay for short notice?
Thanks for looking and for your comments
