Kemo,
Dealer tag, right. It was probably Roger Beasley, I doubt that anyone else would get the keys  Michael Dell has one, his wife got it for his birthday in 05 or 06, can't remember which now. I saw it being delivered to his "bodyguards" who drove it back to the hacienda for him. It was silver, though, so different car. I actually only like the car in silver or maybe yellow. As if, right? This one is probably used, may still be available for sale at R. B.'s dealership. a bargain, I'm sure...  edit: I wonder why the spoiler is up while the car is parked???

Did you see the driver? I'm pretty sure that Michael Dell has a black one (in addtion to other Porsches and a few F cars). I think there are a few other CGT's in town.

Hmm, I stand corrected... I think silverc4s must be right with the Roger Beasely assumption.

With all new porsche's you can park them with the spoiler up and it will lower when you restart the engine. Then you can push the button and have it permanently up again or allow it to do its dance. On a 911 you can pop it when parked to help cool the engine bay, on the CGT you pop it to have the car look THAT much better!

Saw this yesterday going north on the 405. I am going to guess by the McKenna paper plates and the McKenna hauler/flatbed that this is a special project. Full repaint in Gulf Blue. Certainly going to stand out from all the other silver and black GT's in this part of OC.

There are 5 Carrera GTs in our region of the Porsche Club of America. We had 2 at our last monthly meeting and 1 the next time. There is one there about a third of the time.
