Cool!
Is your brother older/younger? Both are good looking hot rods.

Good for your bro, but I prefer your 993 about 100:1

Combined we're 138 yrs, he's older, looks younger and is better looking. He lives next door, a house I rent to him, so we share a back yard. It's nice and he and his wife are easy to live next to.
I like this 996 of his, but maybe I'm more into my car, the 993. (I told him his was real fine) They wanted a convertible so there happy. He almost bought an Audi, so I'm happy with this car.

Nice car. Hardtop is great for snowdays.
Bummer about the damage. Hope the shipper makes it right. |

What is the transport company doing "to make it right" regarding the bumper damage?

Congrats to your brother! The best thing about 996s and 7s is they are gateway drugs getting people into the earlier cars.
Polar Silver 993s are beautiful, one of the best colors for the car.

Nice Christmas present!
He should get a tax deduction for neighborhood improvements.  Did he take delivery in Moncton? Best Les

Good view from my house
 Yes. we picked up in Moncton., Yes it has both tops,. The transporter/seller are going to make it right. I think the best would be a repair (plastic welding) then blow in paint to the corner instead of doing a whole new bumper cover as that might make it more visible in case of paint not matching. Silver is a difficult color to match sometimes. We have good body guys, see what they say. Not too worried. He has a garage over there too., just need to move a 944S to some other location. My rat rod lives in that garage, so good companions for the winter. Thanks for looking guys,

It was his birthday Dec 17, and he never gets presents (too close to Xmas) so now
he got himself a nice gift. |

Damage repair turned out well., now just have to wait for better weather. Right now we are in a deep freeze (-25C) every day. Plus today getting wind and snow/rain.
Shi**y weather for sure, but looks like all of N.A. is getting the same. Good luck to us all!   His Arctic silver makes my Polar silver 993 look blue. I like his interior though I'm not sure what it's called.
