Congrats Eric. I hope we have a few more weekends like this one this year so we can take that bad boy for a rip around Carver Co (like where I got a ticket in the EVT700 by Marty's house). Will it be home for Cars & Cafe next weekend?

The GT2 is close to a 200mph car - will have to actually run it though.

I think the Z06 was a 193-195 mph car if I was actually able to shift the tranny. I'll post a vid when I can - it clearly shows how much time and speed I lost with the tranny problems.

I was shocked that it took so long to sell.
Thanks Sean. Not sure why it took so long to sale but I am getting a sweet deal on an awesome car.

Thanks - I'm sure I will love it. Unfortunately, I will be seeing your tail-lights when the beast comes back from Evoms.

Tim - Good to talk to you the other day. I am hoping to drive out Thursday and get the car - drive back on Friday. I'll call you later in the week when everything is finalized.

I am hoping to have it back home by Friday night and at C&C Saturday. No promises but I am trying to get it done.

Art - Thanks

The Mile helped push me over the edge. I have been quietly looking at a few for awhile now - this car in particular.

Thanks. I can't think of a better way to start my Porsche ownership experience. Well maybe one - but that is another league all together.
