Finally replaced the 997 :)

I wrecked my 997 last year (don't ask, the dust hasn't settled yet) and I finally figured out what to replace her with. Picked it up last night

Something to be said about good working A/C in a place like Houston.

Nice car, an instant classic.

That's the first Porsche made since 1989 that makes me think "Hmm, I could see owning that . . . "

Nice! I'm still not sold on the new 911, but I LOVE the new Cayman/Boxster.

I like the new 911 ok, except it's just too big.

The 911 should be Cayman sized, and the Cayman should be even smaller/lighter!

Both cars in 7/8 scale would be perfect to me.
