Arrow Ecstatic New C4S Owner | Love at First Porsche!

Hello, everyone! I have been a long time reader and more recently a proud new Porsche owner! I want to say how helpful everyone here has been along the way. I had been thinking about the specs I wanted for a solid year...finally took the plunge and custom ordered in September 2014. Car arrived mid-November. Here are the specs of my 911:



And here are a couple of car shots:

Ready to drive off the lot



First photoshoot back in November, black & white



Last week's snowy day in DC:



Photography is a passion of mine, and it certainly is nice to have a new subject / inspiration! As such, I have started a new dedicated Instagram account that I hope some fellow Porsche enthusiasts will follow:

www.instagram.com/LoveAtFirstPorsche

I already have a truckload of pix that I will add to that account over the next few days.

It has only been about 2 months driving my 911, but I must say, what an absolute joy it is to get in the car every day...things like traffic, crazy drivers, road ragers, and irritating radio personalities simply don't phase me anymore! Quite the investment in my mental health ::

I am proud to be part of the Porsche family, part of the 911 legacy, and hope to meet many of you nice folk especially in the DC area.

Thank you for reading!

Absolutely gorgeous! I just came out of a C4S (997) and I loved that planted feel. Great colour combo as well!

Cheers and congrats!

Nice job on the Aerokit Cup package!

Well thought out and choices in the build.

Hopefully your choices in radio personalities are just as good

Welcome and congrats!

I definitely hope to attend soon! Need to brave the cold

Thank you all for the warm welcome and kind comments! I did think on the Aerokit the most. Almost went with just the ducktail...SO glad I changed my mind!
