Very pretty.
I can see why you were hot for the deal.
If you come across another like it send it my way.

It's the one. Bonus is I got to have authentic Queens diner food and pizza from a shop that's been open for 75 years. What more could you ask for other than a great bagel and some lox.

Thanks Glen, my BMW does that and it's a nice feature. Rims will never be curbed! They are one of the many bright spots of the truck.

No idea JT but yes it's a factory tow package. No Turbo, just a tune to get it to 405 hp. And maybe something more because it's definitely faster, etc. than an equivalent S. Maybe gearing? This is almost certainly the truck I would have ordered new back in 2009. Black is nice too but the graphite (meteor grey metallic which is different from earlier 911 MGM) is a great color for it.
March 30th can't come soon enough. It's first hauling job will be some Ferrari 365 GTC window frames that are too big for the BMW which I'm giving to a friend. Then I have 6000 lbs of steel shelving to haul with it. That will be two trips just to be safe, I won't be used to the truck to really know it.
