It's registered, so now it's official, I'm a 911 owner!
Hi everyone,
after a lot of reading, a lot of hunting, and a lot of saving (!), i've finally bought one of my dream cars. She comes from a fellow pelicanite who took great car of her in San Francisco. I flew from LA, and drove back the same day. While on the drive home, I was like a kid who had his first kiss... a grin ear to ear! I was only able to take a part of Hwy 1 down from SF since it's closed at Big Sur. It was a disappointment, but it really didn't matter. There were great roads to hit up on the way down anyway. I only have back side pictures for now, but more to come I assure you!

Looks like ya done good. Very pretty! I love Hwy 1. Bummer about it being closed. Any idea on when it will open up again? The Oregon coast and NorCal on Hwy 1 is just terrific too.
Enjoy and keep tuned in here...

Welcome to Club Pelican.
Too funny. When I was looking for my car, I was thinking I was going to need to make a trip down to your area to find my black 3.2. Nothing up this way, plenty down there. And here you are, traveling up here to find your dream car. Something to my liking became available here in the Bay Area. So, no trip South was needed in the end. So, two happy endings. Congratulations. Looks like a great car.

She's running fantastic! You should have seen her on Sunday afternoon. All washed and waxed, she was even shinier than in the pictures you took! I couldn't believe it! Are we going to see a picture of YOUR new toy soon?
