Well done, young Jedi!! Chosen well, you have. I'll turn 60 in November and I still have yet to get my first Porsche. But there is this 996TT on Ebay.......

Brian, that was an excellent write up and choice of machines!! I especially like the way you credit your father for your passions. My father was the same with me and he will forever be my best friend!! I too, will see him again one day.... Enjoy your 930 in the best of health and spirits.. Kenny

Well I've already done some personalizing. Dropped it a little, a new front bumper, a K&N intake, and a new set of HRE 560R's (18"x9" front, 18"x11" rear) thanks to Mike and Brian at Stuttgart Performance in Costa Mesa, CA. The shoes are Yokohama AD08 245/40/18, 295/30/18

Beautiful car and great choice. My dad pulled the trigger on a 930 last summer with similar specs to yours: 3.4l conversion, k27s, a very large upgraded intercooler, RUF suspension. While he has not had it dyno'd, he was informed that it puts out about 450-500hp. It's funny that you mention your reaction following your test drive. My dad's was almost identical and he signed the papers for it the next day! Enjoy it in good health.
