Congratulations! Thats a fine year.

muchos congrats! It looks like it doesn't have a sunroof, is that right? If so, that's rare. really nice color, too.

Cheers,

Nope it has a sunroof. The body is Garnet Metallic Red and the inside is also wine colored leather and carpeting.

well in any case it's a really nice looking car! congrats!

Beautiful car !!!

Congrats !!!


NOW DRIVE !!!

Newbie advice--dont lift off the gas pedal in a turn if you are pushing the limits. she'll spin. Looks great ...have fun.

Second newbie advice: Resign from this board right now!!! Do not search for info, do not read any more posts!!!

Sweet. Now I'd suggest a good radar detector. ;)

Very nice!! Welcome to air cooled 911 ownership. We are a tight bunch of enthusiasts and you will always get answers to any questions you might have.

Congrats! Beautiful car.
Ssuggestion: start reading posts on things like maintenance and checking your oil level (the search button is your friend).
Also get at least one or two books like 101 Projects (Sold by our sponsor) and Bentleys repair manual.

Congrats !!!
nice color

Nice ride :)

Oh yea, you're going to love this. Half the fun is owning/driving it, the other half is reading this board and learning so much about your car. That's a nice car. Did you buy it on the Island or in the Lower Mainland?

Congrats and welcome!

Sweet! Now drive it and drive it HARD just the way they like to be abused my friend ;)

And a GREAT color! Congrats and welcome.
