Finally got my first Porsche (Pix)

Well I just got her and I am already in love.

The first pic is with my 1987 BMW M6 which is for sale.

1980 911SC

Nice looking car, congratulations. Too bad you're across country (Oops! Are you? Kinda looks like a California neighborhood)because I have always LOVED M6's!...I don't suppose you have any interest in a trade for a nice '86 951, do you? Drop me a PM with your price on the M6. Best to you, Dan

That's a beaut!!!
Details please. Where'd you find it? How much$ if you don't mind me asking. I checked out a grey 930S last year in Newport Beach, but passed on it.

Let's see some more pics--engine?

I found it in Dana Point, Ca. The guy had it tucked away in his garage. He had a ton of receipts and the thing ran great. The think I stole it from him for $12k.

Is it normally asperated or turbo charged? I remember driving a slant nose turbo and when the turbo kicked in I thought I was about to take off 747 style. Even if you put your nose to the windsheild you still cant see the front end. Very nice!

very nice... beautiful
Take some pics of the rear (actually all around will you)?
I met a guy has the same car, same year, but convertible. He has the louvers on the rear side bumpers.

Welcome San Diego!

Welcome to the Pelican board! I come back frequently to visit family and the old crew. (Solana Beach and Carlsbad). Great looking ride. I can see why you love it.
Maybe we'll catch up with you sometime... Happy Porsche motoring!!!
